We started the season with a Pig roast Party at the Roost and the rivers promptly blown out for two more weeks. Sometimes it’s tough to bring on the summer, we must have tried too hard as now we pray for cool temps and some clouds.
With high water we don’t get much picture shooting time as finding a stopping spot can be troublesome. ½ A dozen dropped strokes and were around the next bend and into the trees, that’s not easily forgotten, come tipping time. Attached are a few of the less risky ones….
More recently; the Beaverhead is flowing nice at around a grand and the POGO rig is in play, the water needs to flush out the silt from run-off below Monkey face rock then we should see some short leash opportunity. The big boys are out between the Dam and High Bridge and may have flushed down towards Hennaberry as we have been catching some nice bows down that way.
The Big Hole is finally down below 2k and the dry fly game is incredible with some clouds. Summer stones are very active and the early AM deal was rolling good back during the full moon.
The Madison? Well it’s the Madison and fishing every other day, best results around the West Fork and down to Mac.
Hoppers are on deck and growing fast maybe we will get the hopper love this season, none as of yet though.
Fish allways, “Brazdas Fly Fishing”
