Big Hole River - August 10th, 2004

FISHING: Good
The Flows at Melrose Montana 330 C.F.S. Trico's are starting to come off in the morning hours. The trico fishing can be very good on the Bighole, however wind will determine how good it is. Hoppers and droppers are the name of the game once the trico's are done. There is a bit of caddis activity in the evening as well. General attractor flies with bead droppers are my favorite way to fish the Bighole. I generally don't get to specific with the fly selection while I am on the Bighole.
Fly Pattern Suggestions :Yellow Stimulator #8-12, Madam X #8-10, Elk Hair Caddis #12-14, Slick Water Caddis #12-14 Parachute Caddis #12-14, BH Mangy Caddis #14-16, Black Lite Brite Caddis #12-14, Hot wire Caddis #12-14, BH Prince #8-12
