The Fall River was excellent over this past week with great catches all up and down the river from the Headwaters to the Falls. Remember that below the falls to the confluence with the Deschutes that the river is closed until 5/22/26.
There have been good mayfly hatches with BWO’s coming off best, and PMD’s getting a foothold now for a spring, summer and early fall of consistent hatches. Emergers and Cripples have been best, and in that ultra clear water a light tippet is a must. If you are comfortable with 7x, it pays off with more fish to the net. PS- don’t bass set with 7x! WINK.
Eggs, Micro Mayflies, Perd’s, Zebra Midges (red and black), Slum Lord, Mini Gulp, Jig Minnow are flies to try.
