October and November Missouri River Flies

October and November Missouri River Flies

Flies for the weeks ahead on Montana’s Missouri River.

As I mentioned in a previous post, lots of out of work guides and industry folks around as they pop on over for a visit to their favorite river the Missouri.

What do they do when they get here? Streamer fish mostly. Some dry fly stuff when it presents itself, but mostly streamer chuckin’.

The above flies include the old SJW, Micro Mays, Anato-Mays, Pearl Lightening Bugs, BWO CDC Bubblebacks, S & M’s, Pink LB’s, Zebra Midge, BH Softies, Czech Nymphs, FB Sows, Ray Charles, Tailwater Sows for the nymph end.

For the Dry fly anglers we love Parachute Adams, CDC Comparadun, Cluster Midge, CDC Hanging Midge, Harrop’s CDC Cripples, Smoke Jumpers, Black and Grey Posted Nymen’s Cripples, CDC BWO Spinners, Hi-Viz CDC Para Spinners, RS2’s, CDC Emergers and the like.
