Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Montana: Western Small River Tips
Posted by fliesandfinswest on Tuesday, August 29 @ 15:17:39 PDT
Late summer and early fall can make for some excellent fishing in small western rivers. Whether you are fishing in Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Montana or any where else out west, these tips will help you to be more successful. One problem with western small streams is that fish tend to be spooky. Try to avoid water that has already been fished. Stay far away from other anglers and keep moving. Sometimes you can spot fish but do not always expect to see them in the middle of the river. Instead look for cover, brush banks, cut-banks, and foam lines, all of which make for excellent cover. I also look for Beaver dams and woody debris. I always say that
big, deadfall branches point to the big fish. Often, hoppers, ants and beetles will produce fish throughout this time of the year. Overcast skies are always a plus (don’t be afraid to throw a streamer). If it is a bright sunny day concentrate your efforts in the morning and in the late evening. Most rivers will offer excellent caddis action during those time periods
