The fishing on the Grey Reef has remained solid. We are still seeing good hatches of caddis, PMDs, and yellow sallies and have started to see small tricos as well.

Fishing nymph rigs has been a great way to find fish, but some dry fly fishing can be had as well. Be sure to have plenty of weight and get your nymph rigs down in the water column. Having a larger leech, worm, or annelid as a lead fly with a smaller bug behind is a great option when nymphing. A PMD or yellow sally nymph behind a larger attractor is a great rig for right now. Be sure to have small RS2s and trico patterns for the days the hatch is strong. Nymphing with these small flies after a hatch can be very productive.

While nymphing has been the best way to locate fish, throwing streamers is always worth a shot. Streamers often work well with the higher flows and it is a great way to try and target the larger fish in the river. When fishing streamers, be sure to use a sink tip or sink line and get down in the current.
