Mid-July Fishing

The grey drake hatch is still going full force on the Upper Green.  Days are warming up quickly so head to the river early to catch the hatch.  There are also some fish eating golden stones more consistently (foam!) and a variety of other dries, think caddis, yellow sallies, and pmds.   A dry with a worm dropper combo is also a good bet.  The Green bumped up a bit last week, so focus on slower water.

The Snake is still high, with water levels about twice the normal flow for this time of year.  That said, the water is starting to green up and it seems like good fishing is right around the corner.  If you can’t wait for things to clear up and have to hit the Snake now, don’t do it without a pocket full of Pat’s rubber legs and some pink worms.
