Big Hole River Spring Fishing Report
March 26, 2010
Matthew with a great Spring time Big Hole Brown
ON MARCH 25 WE LAUNCHED TWO BOATS ON THE BIG HOLE AND FLOATED TO GLEN. IT WAS OVERCAST AND THE TEMPERATURE WAS IN THE 40’S. FLOW ON THE BIG HOLE IS LOW BUT WATER CONDITIONS ARE PERFECT TO PRODUCE HIGH QUALITY SPRING FISHING. “HIGH QUALITY” TURNED OUT TO BE AN UNDERSTATEMENT ON THIS DAY BECAUSE THE FISHING WAS AS GOOD AS ONE COULD IMAGINE. ONE OF OUR BOATS NETTED OVER 50 FISH. EXCEPT FOR A STRETCH OF SLACK WATER MID RUN, WHICH WE RAPIDLY PUSHED THROUGH, WE WERE IN FISH FROM THE TIME WE LAUNCHED UNTIL WE TOOK OUT AT GLEN. THE FLY OF THE DAY WAS THE DEPENDABLE SAN JUAN WORM IN RED, PINK AND THE DISCO VARIETY. WE CAUGHT A FEW ON THE STONE FLY NYMPH COMBO BUT MAINLY THEY ATE THE WORM. THE MAJORITY OF THE FISH WERE BROWN TROUT BUT WE CAUGHT A GOOD NUMBER OF RAINBOWS ALSO. THE FISHERMAN OF THE DAY WAS YOUNG MATTHEW MILLER FROM LANETT, ALABAMA WHO CELEBRATED HIS SPRING BREAK BY BOATING OVER THIRTY FISH. WE WILL BE BACK AT IT AGAIN TODAY SO STAY TUNED FOR ANOTHER REPORT. LITTLE COLDER WITH A CHANCE OF SNOW TODAY BUT IS ENTIRELY FISHABLE.
