TRIP SUMMARY

Had a fantastic day on the Arkansas River with some first timers. It was raining upon arrival but that did not deter the fish as our first cast yielded a nice brown! Water clarity was great and flows were about perfect as we worked our way up stream fishing pocket water. Seemed as though every soft spot had at least one fish in it. We stuck with nymph rigs and size 14 Walt’s worms and size 18 zebra midges got the job done for us. With the rain we saw minimal bug activity but saw quite a few caddis coming off as the weather cleared. We didn’t see any fish rising to them however so we stuck with nymphing. All in all a very busy afternoon! Good luck out there!
