Tricos and Hoppers

What’s Hot​: ​Tricos have been coming off in the mornings, we have been targeting them in slower slack water. Plenty of fish have been feeding on the Upper Grey Reef, the Junk Hole  has been producing fish on Tricos consistently. Once midmorning rolls around, the fish have  been returning to deeper runs targeting  PMD’s (poxyback), and small black midges. The  afternoon is steadily producing takers off the top on hoppers, keep pounding those banks!  

Our Set Up​:   Nymphing:  6’ leader to an AB weight, followed by a bead headed poxy back PMD, to a  PMD, to a small black midge.   Dry Flies:  9’ 4X leader, to a size 18 trico.  Hoppers:  9’ 4X leader, to a hopper (pink belly hopper).
