 Utah Midge Fishing: Heating Up!
Posted by fliesandfinswest on Wednesday, February 20 @ 16:38:07 PST
Utah midge fishing is heating up. Many Utah rivers are exploding with activity. Sunny warmer (relatively speaking) afternoons have sparked huge afternoon midge hatches and the fish are on them. The key is to watch the takes. If you see a porposing type rise then fish are most likely taking the pupa while they are making their way to the surface, taking advantage of their vulnerability just before or just as they emerge. I have found this to be the case midday thru afternoon. Once the sun gets low in the sky the adult midges are the way to go. Big, gulping rise-forms let you know it is game on for the dries.

Re: Utah Midge Fishing: Heating Up!
by dee on Saturday, February 23 @ 07:29:46 PST | | After taking advantage of some of the incredible snow this year, riding was great and will be awesome for the fisheries, it's time to put in more effort on the water. The midges are firing. When you get tired of throwing the super small stuff (or your hands are too cold to time them on), try throwing a weighted zebra midge, either as a dropper or under just an indicator. I just started doing this last winter and had great results. |
