Thing's have cooled down up on the Reef. With the colder weather we have been seeing up there, things are beginning to shape up nicely for a awesome fall season. Nymphing is still the most productive, with great hatches of Tricos, Midges, BWO's and a few caddis. Attractors like a Pine Squirrel Leech, Annelid, or worm followed by a Foam Wing RS2 or Mayhem Midge is a great place to start. Streamer fishing is always a great option anywhere on the North Platte. Try slow stripping a leech or crayfish imitation down deep, or throwing large articulated patterns near structure in slower water. Conditions on the reef will continually get better as we move into fall, we hope you guys are as stoked as we are for the amazing fishing right around the corner!
