Hatches on the Bighorn?
#5
Well I finally made it out to the Horn yesterday and had a great day! I started out with dries but didn't get anything for the firs hour so then we all switched to nymphs and it took another hour or so to figure out which of the 20 flies suggested were the ones the fish wanted that day. I finally ended up going with my tried and true set up of a hares ear and a zebra midge and needed up hooking into about 8 fish in a row on a single little run. 2 of the fish were some of the biggest I have ever caught in my 5wt. After that we all went back to dries and managed a few more on hoppers as we got down to the take out at Bighorn.

The river was crazy busy but everyone was polite and did a good job staying out of each others way.
