Beautiful weather and fantastic winter fishing has continued right up through… today. If you were camping in the back of truck, you woke up to a skiff of white blanketing the Craig area. 26 degrees and snowing lightly at the moment, BUT, it’s supposed to get into the 40’s and turn to rain this afternoon. Could be good streamer fishing and midging this afternoon if the wind lays down.
John Chase shows off a nice fish he caught yesterday on the lower river.
Streamers that have been producing include Silvey’s Sculpin, Flesh Eating Sculpin, Sculpzilla, and other large, natural colored minnow patterns. Smaller drab buggers and clousers are also a good call. A black clouser is as good as anything.
Cloudy with a chance of precip is the forecast for the next few days. It’ll be colder than it has been, but still nicer than usual for early March. Midges continue to bring fish to the surface on a consistent basis, and things should only get better in the coming weeks.
