The Fall River has been fishing well. It has been quite crowded so spreadinging out and finding some spots you have not explored before may be to your advantage. Going early or late in the day is also a good way to try and avoid the crowds. Nymphing with two-bits, eggs, psycho prince’s, and micro mays has been effective. Stripping streamers around some of the downed timber is another good way to fool some larger more aggressive trout. Dry-dropper setups can also be a fun tactic on the fall and a variety of large foam dries or beetle/ant patterns will serve well as the top fly.
