The Fall River is a great bet this week and in to November. Expect good to very good Blue Wing Olive hatches #18-20, tiny black Midges #22, Amber Caddis #14-16 for dry fly options throughout the day, and great nymph and streamer options at any time.
On the dry fly side, cripples and emergers are often the best choice, and a lighter than average tippet is highly recommended. 7x is a great idea, but if you are not comfortable with 7x, use 6x. Or split the difference and try a spool of 6.5x. Every bump down in diameter is a benefit to the drift, and harder for the trout to see. One wing KD Duns are amazing, Film Critic, Captive Dun, Winger Emergers, Sparkle Flag and EP Comparadun, Purple Comparadun. All my favorites on any spring creek, and especially this little spring creek.
For caddis pick up the Silvey’s Edible Emerger and the Orange Missing Link for emergers and that’s probably all you need, but it won’t hurt to add a Corn Fed Caddis #16 in there too.
Eggs, Zebra Midges, Tungsten Micro May’s and various Perdigons are the best for nymphing, plus Balanced Leeches , Micro Streamers like a Mini Gulp and even some Zonker or Sculpzilla type flies to swing or strip. And, get a little dirty and add a Mop Fly to your arsenal.
Don’t forget the November special at $375 for a full day walk and wade guide trip. This is a great place for a great price to get a fabulous trip or work on a specific skill like Euro Nymphing with one of our qualified guides.
