We are doing a combination of nymphing and streamer fishing here. Midges, PT's, San Juan Worms, egg patterns, Punk Perch, Loebergs, Matukas. It is your location more than the imitation straight up. Hard to beat a flashback PT or broken back #16-20 with the right drifts. On the warmer days (temps above 40) there is a solid midge and BWO hatch. You will NOT get these humongous rainbows on the dries. They are just too nasty. It takes some effort and/or horsepower to get into the fish, we can guide you to these trophies & I will say it is not for everyone & you better have your "A" game ready. A 15 fish day with Alaska grade rainbows is possible right now. It will go into March this season.
