Current River Conditions:
These rainbows have seen it all by now, but don't let that stop you from fishing to rising fish in the morning! Swinging or suspending nymphs under an indicator has been getting us tight to the big rainbows Fall River is famous for! There is plenty of rainbow trout populated water on Fall River right now. When it come to great scenery, solitude and rainbows averaging 16", Fall River delivers!
The Fly Shop's ? Tips:
The "Fall River Twitch" has been the most effective technique on Fall River for decades. Anchor your pram upstream of rising fish. Cast downstream and across, then feed line out to extend your drift a long ways downstream. This way the fish see your fly first, and enables a precise presentation without spooking the fish. The Fall River Twitch is equally effective whether fishing dries, swinging nymphs or indicator nymphing. If you're casting to a pod of rising trout, work from the outside in and you can often pick them off one by one. 5-6wt rods are great. Recommended fly lines; RIO Gold floating line and an extra spool loaded with RIO Deep 3.
