The Fall River is top notch for the early spring and you will see good BWO hatches in the afternoons, along with Midges, some Caddis #14-16 Olive or Grey, quite possibly the 1st March Browns that should not surprise anyone to see fluttering clumsily as they take flight for the 1st time.
Don’t forget your Hippie Stompers (purple is best) and some ants and beetles as we warm in the spring days ahead.
Small Euro Jig Streamers are always a great choice on the Fall, and bigger streamers on a sink tip will be fun in some pools and bank lines, and “log cabins”.
Nymphing the ledges and the runs where you can sight fish trout is a blast in the Fall and one of my favored ways to approach the river if the fish are not on a dry fly hatch. Purple Perdigon, Brown or Olive Jig Napoleon or Perdigon, Eggs, Micro May BWO, 2 Bit Hooker BWO or Red and Scuds are great nymphs to use. From March 1 to April 21, 2026 we will be running our spring guide trip special again for $400 for up to 3 anglers on the river for a full day trip. BYOL. Flies Included. $350 for a half day.
