South Fork

  South Fork 4 Flow on the river is at great levels ( 12400 cfs at Irwin, 13500 cfs at Heise, 5000 cfs at Lorenzo) and water is cold but clearing up. Fish responding are where you find them! There are plenty of sallies, some caddis, PMDs and big stone flies round, but fish seem to take them on an inconsistent basis with respect to location on the river. Nymph patterns, with and without a bead head presented over drop-offs seem to be the most consistent way to success.
Fly Patterns to use:
Henry’s Fork Foam Stone Salmonfly
Dornan’s Micro Circus Sally
Improved Sparkle Dun PMD
