FISHING: Fair
Owyhee River
Fair
The heat is still playing a big role in the hatches. The bugs are small and they are not hatching either early in the morning or not unitl late in the evening near dark. I would fish nymphs throughout the day watching for consistent risers and then give them a try with a PMD or Baetis dry and a little olive or brown emerger underneath. The water clarity is about normal and the tempertaure continues to stay cold. Flows are steady at around 200 cfs which is a very fishable level. The ticks have been out so be sure to check after every fishing trip.
Flies: Beadhead Pheasant Tail, 16-20, Prince Nymphs, 14-20, Copper Johns, 14-18, PMD Emergers, 16-18, Calibaetis Emergers, 14-18, Baetis Hatchmatcher, 20, PMD Comparadun, 16-18, Parachute Calibaetis, 14-18, Olive Midges, 18-20, Black Midges, 18-20, Baetis Emergers, 18-20, Olive Emergers, 18-20.
