May 24 St. Peter's Fly Shop

Flows on the Laramie are high and dirty. Size up your flies to increase your chances of fooling a few fish. Focus on slower water close to the banks or behind rocks as fish will use these areas to hide from the main current. We also suggest spending some time on our local streams in order to minimize your drive time and maximize your time on the water. If you have questions on where to go, just give us a shout at either shop! As we dip into later May and June, pay attention to the flows as the bugs can come and go within a few days as the water is pulled for irrigation and can warm up quickly.

Recommended Flies:

Nymphs: Pheasant tail #16-22, Hares Ear #16-22, Micro Girdle Bugs #18, Tung Baetis Jig #18-20, Copper John #14-20, RS2 #18-24, Mayhem #18-22

Streamers: Thin Mint #8-12, Wolly Buggers (White, Black, or Olive) #6-12, Slump Buster #6, Sculpzilla #8

Dries: Parachute Adams and Small Chubbies could produce a few, less than intelegent fish, but I would focus my efforts subsurface until we see some warmer air and water temps at the higher elevations

May 17 St. Peter's Fly Shop

Flows on the Laramie have taken a jump over the last couple of weeks. The first bump in flow usually comes with dirty water, so sizing up your flies will play in your favor and will allow the fish to see you bugs. Focus on slower water close to the banks or behind rocks as fish will use these areas to hide from the main current. We also suggest spending some time on our local streams in order to maximize your use of drive time and water time. If you have questions on where to go, just give us a shout at either shop! As we dip into later May and June, pay attention to the flows as the bugs can come and go within a few days as the water is pulled for irrigation and can warm up quickly.
