Flies of the week 04-04-2018

Dry fly fishing took a turn for the better this week. BWO’s are on the move. Start looking for this hatch to start around 11 am. It has been off and on until 3 pm. If you get on the water before 11 be prepared to toss midges on top to rising fish. Adding a dropper is the way to go fosho. Flows for the Big T and the Poudre are on the low side. A 9 ft 5X leader tappered to 6X tippet is ideal.

Hatch: Midges and BWO’s

Guide Flies: Dries: #18 BWO Cripple, #18 PEC and #18 Mullet Midge. Nymphs: #18 J’s BWO Emerger, #20 All American and #20 97oh
