Fishing Report - Bighorn River, WY

Did a lower river float yesterday it was nice to fish some different water, though it was good only in a few spots. And the boat ramps are still very icy.... took us about twenty minutes of chipping ice with the spare oar to get up the ramp last night. Weather has been great the last few days mid thirties to low 40s and the midge have been popping getting those fish active on pupae in the right spots. Not much in the way of dry fly fishing right now but we have seen sporadic rises to midge adults here and there. Nymphing the deep and slow water is the most productive way to catch fish right now, and we're starting to see more browns in the mix whereas a few weeks ago we were only catching rainbows. You just never know what you're gonna lift off the bottom of the river...

Ate the worm.
