Fall River is fishing well

5-14-2022
The Fly Shop

Fall River is fishing well. Good PMD hatches are coming off pretty regularly. Look for a spinner fall in the morning followed up with the hatch coming off mid day. The Rusty Spinner #14, Mercer's Missing Link in PMD and the PMD Challenged should have you covered for now. For nymphing, the Crystal HBI, Mercer's PMD Jigster and a plain ol' Pheasant Tail in #14 - 16 will get the fish eating your fly. Swinging and stripping scuds and leeches is also a good technique in the deep holes. We have some windy weather in the offing, but the Fall is fishing!

Hot Flies:  TB Drowned Rusty Spinner, PMD's, Norman's Wiggletails, Pheasant Tails, Mercer's Missing Link, Zug Bugs, and Leeches.
