Jun 01 Duranglers

Its a weird start to summer. With tons of snow, its still getting cold in the high country and causing runoff to last longer rather than all at once. Rafters rejoice.
Watch the turbidity gauge to drop below 18 or so for streamer and big nymph fishing. Below 10 will be good for smaller bugs.
Target close to the banks.

Patterns/Bugs:
Big water attractors: Prince nymphs and variants 10-14, Orange Crush 12-16, Egg and SJ worm patterns, Pats Rubberlegs and stonefly nymphs 4-8, Cranefly Larva 6-10,
Caddis Pupa: Barrs Graphic Caddis 12-14, TBH Jig Caddis 14, Prarie Dog Pupa 14-16.
Olive, Black, White Streamers: GD Sculpin Snack, Sculpinator, Sparkle Minnow, Barrs Meat Whistle, Skully Bugger, Cheech Leech, Flugenzombie.

May 17 Duranglers

We have a ton of snow, and runoff is here. The Animas will be friendlier to rafters than fly anglers for a bit.
Streamers and big nymphs will be your friend should you fish. Target close to the banks, but clarity will be an issue for a bit.

Patterns/Bugs:
Big water attractors: Prince nymphs and variants 10-14, Orange Crush 12-16, Egg and SJ worm patterns, Pats Rubberlegs and stonefly nymphs 4-8, Cranefly Larva 6-10,
Caddis Pupa: Barrs Graphic Caddis 12-14, TBH Jig Caddis 14, Prarie Dog Pupa 14-16.
Olive, Black, White Streamers: GD Sculpin Snack, Sculpinator, Sparkle Minnow, Barrs Meat Whistle, Skully Bugger, Cheech Leech, Flugenzombie.
