Fish Bridgeport Reservoir early this year

Fish here early this season people. It will be good before the end of July. The Bridge will have GREAT numbers of planted fish this opener and early summer. Low water levels due to the lack of snow pack this season will make it tough to "catch" here after July. Sheep fur patterns are best-speak with Jeffery at the marina about these as he keeps them under lock and key in his trailer...Loebergs, Spruce-A-Bu's with full sinks will get you grabs around the EW channel and towards the public boat ramps. Look for still water nymphing methods to rule around mid-May. Gillies, broken back & zebra midges -10 feet plus early on. If you want to launch a boat for opener go to the marina, it will be tough anywhere else.

Pictured Above: Bridgeport pro Steve Yamani crushed them on the opener. Nice Steve!
Photo #1: Brent Robinson said it was "epic" on opening day at the Bridge. He is a skilled still water nympher and had several browns like this using tiger midges.
Photo #2: This is what the Bridge is all about, good fishing, great scenery, and fun times on a mellow lake. Whitney tight to a nice one here with her posse standing by at net.
