Metolius River fishing report 4/20/18

Still seeing a fair number of October Caddis on the river, mixed with Silver Stripe and Snow Sedges, Brachycentrus and Hydropsyche’s. That means plenty of caddis pupa patterns for your nymphing pleasure!

Afternoon BWO hatches have been strong. What hasn’t been that good is the spring hatch of cinygmula’s. I’d always be prepared for both on any given afternoon dry fly session.

Golden Stone Nymphs and McGee’s Girdle Bugs are awesome! We’ve been trailing Frenchie’s, Lightning Bugs and Halls CDC Hares Ear’s as a trailer.

Some Bull Trout action, a good friend got a huge one on a big streamer a few days ago.
