Dry fly action on Middle Fork Willamette after dinnertime

July 16th, 2009 · 3 Comments

We waded the Middle Fork Willamette this evening, picking up plenty of wild trout on nymphs early with dry fly action later — after 7pm. Megaprince was the hot nymph for the day, scoring some nice fish for Matt Siegmund. There were some large stoneflies on the water, and lots of caddis, shifting later to mayflies later on. The hot fly for the evening dry fly bite on the Middle Fork has been a Stalcup’s Green Drake adult.

    Definitely the stalcups . . . the hairwing green drake hasn’t picked up any slabs lately.
