What am I missing?
So I decided to give the Little Red a shot this Sunday morning to see how it has been fishing and I've got to say that I was pretty frustrated. I've caught some very nice fish, including a 29'' bow,...

Leader length? Tippet size? When the weather gets bright I have seen a massive amount of difference in the success of 7X vs 6X vs 5X. I would get no bites on 5, maybe 3 bites an hour on 6, and a bite...

The fish at the dam can be tricky, and any variation in a midge is making a huge difference right now. Use a long leader with a white indicator. Some sort of attractor above your fly has been working...

I fished the river on the August 18th on return home from a few weeks on the White. Wore em out on #20 BWO's, small foam ants (#18's) on top and #18 copper/rusty dunn midge on 6x fished pretty close...

Don't think you will find too many bwo's at the dam? What you have described are fish feeding on midge pupaes in the meniscus and they are pretty much in a feeding lane and don't move far from it(in...

Those cruising fish in the pool below GFD are pretty darn big at certain times of the year. Cracking the code on them would be a major bonus. My thing on a tiny indicator is that I generally also look...

Thanks for all the info. Looks like I may try some 7x and some smaller nonbh midges. It's become almost a challenge now, as I think John and I are talking about the same hole. I have caught several...

I believe it is ok to use an indicator as long as it is very small and does not look completely out of place in a bubble line. In some of those holes you are casting and drifting to fish that are...

Personally l have always favored use of grease to maintain depth of fly when fishing slow moving water, typically also long leaders. Once you have adjusted to what to look for you will easily see the...
