Dog days and tiny treats.

With the month of August rolling through we have had good reports of Callibaetis and Trico’s out on the lake. If you seek a little more movement in your fly line than the still water pursuit the upper Madison has been producing well and good news if you are planning on hitting the river this week flows bounced back with a little more volume and should stay that way for a couple of days before summer demands start pulling it back down. Prince Nymphs, Lightning bugs, Juan’s, Parachute Adams, Royal PMX’s and the above mentioned Callibaetis and Trico patters have been on the menu as of late with the sizes getting smaller as the calendar goes on. The fly fishing festival is this up coming labor day weekend which can be a great time to stop by the shop. After this weekend should mark the start of cooler temps bolstering more aggressive takes meaning streamer time is right around the corner. Have a great weekend and we look forward to seeing you soon.
