Good reports from yesterday though we did hear the morning nymphing was challenging, at least in the dam to Wolf Creek section. It sounds like things improved as the day went on however and dry fly reports from the afternoon/evening were encouraging to say the least.
We try hard to not paint too rosy of a picture for you and you can always expect honesty in our reporting on this blog but no matter what happened out there yesterday or what’s happening out there today it might not, and likely won’t be the same tomorrow so we encourage you as always to keep your expectations realistic. That being said, I have no problem saying that overall the fishing is REALLY good right now and that if you were looking for a time to come fish the MO when you would more than likely experience some incredible fishing this would be that time.
The fishing is good and should continue to improve as we head into late October/early November. You couldn’t ask for better weather. Plenty of cloud cover, day time highs in the 50’s and overnight lows in the high 30’s/low 40’s. Ideal conditions for fall fishing. Currently just over 53 degrees, the water temp is creeping downward daily. Cold water, cool temps and cloudy skies….perfect conditions for BWO’s and while we can’t predict the future and won’t attempt to do so, it’s a safe bet that the big bugs will start popping sooner rather than later.
We’ve got a window from Sunday to Wednesday next week with a fair amount of lodging available before things fill up again on Thursday so this would be your opportunity to get in on the action. As we’ve mentioned before, 2016 is turning out to be one of the better fall fishing seasons we’ve seen in a while so we hope you can make it.
Give us a call today and book your Missouri River Fall Fly Fishing Odyssey. We would love to have you as our guest and even if you aren’t staying with us you need look no further than Wolf Creek Angler for everything you need for your day on the water. Vehicle Shuttles, Adipose and RO Drift Boat Rentals, cold weather gear from SIMMS and KAST, bins overflowing with all of the bugs you need for the MO and much more.
