Meanderings

Stalking trout with dry flies. Floating, wading, and camping along the rivers. Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. Winter trips to Mexico.

Living 'Strong

Armstrong, that is.  From 3x and big bugs yesterday to 6x and 20's and 22's on the creek today.  If the fly was small, some ate it. They weren't pattern picky, just size.  Whatever they were eating was really small, smaller than anything in my box.  Scattering of midges, baetis, and sulphers, but no real hatch of anything.   Fish rising from start 'till the famous Livingston wind kicked up at 2:30, followed by lightning.  Non-stop fish to cast to until then. 
Nice cloudy start to the morning
 
 
Old stand-by first
 
 
 
Midge really worked well

Henry's Fork has the "log jam."  Armstrong's has the "stick jam."  Fish Magnets
