9/7/2010 fishing report

Hey my friends,Can you all say OFF THE HOOK. If so that would explain the fishing this month. The weather is perfect, the trout are fat and happy, the water level makes it possible to wade all the good bars, the eddies are full of fish. If you are quiet one can hear them slurping. Just as it was in late spring its all about the midges. Size is important color is not and dredging the bottom is not necessary, so what that means is use a dry,dropper rig or get rid of the dry and replace with a pinch on indicator and use two bead head midges and you have what I call a midging rig. This rig has been very effective. I still have days available so give me a call and we will go catching. This is a good time to make a fly fishing buddy out of your wife, best friend, son, daughter or girlfriend anyone you would like to make into a life long fly fisher. If their first time fly fishing is successful they are hooked. Hope to hear from you soon. Rocky

fishing report 8/17/2010

Hey everyone, Here is a picture of a great young man named Christopher Lane with a beautiful Lees Ferry rainbow. He and his father Phil Lane came and spent a couple of days taking advantage of the great fishing we have been experiencing. I think they caught fish just about every way one can catch fish at Lees Ferry what a great time we had. Thanks guys.Well I expect more of the same for the rest of August. September fishing is going to be great because after high flows for the summer and the fact that when they lower the flows for the fall

the fish will be condensed in the riffles. Those first two weeks of September are always good. Also another good thing that will be happening is four days of steady low flows on and around Labor day weekend. Last year we were having 100 fish days during this time. So don`t miss out on this great time to be out on the Ferry. Rocky For More Details, Visit Home at http://www.LeesFerryFlyFishing.com

Hello my fellow fly fishers,
Here is proof Lee's Ferry still has BIG beautiful rainbows. This is a picture of a 22" male, caught by Brandon Weeden. We caught this beauty drifting San Juan worms, from the boat. The cicada action is winding down a bit, but still productive enough to keep you in the action all day. Wading and nymphing is very productive in a few choice spots. When selecting a spot to wade, look for Sharp drop offs. One such spot is the top of 8 mile bar, first thing in the morning, while the water is rising. The fish are fat and sassy, they have lots of food. The lighting in the canyon is beautiful and the weather has been just right. The number of fishermen on the river is very low, and the fishing is good. People always ask what the best time of year to be here is, well this is that time of year, July and August, so in short the only thing missing is you! Give us a call if we can be of service. Rocky & Mick

Hello all my fellow fishers, this is a picture of a beautiful fat female rainbow in her summer colors. Kay Flanagan caught this beautiful fish on a size 8 cicada pattern. The fishing at Lee's Ferry is as good as it gets, as far as dry fly fishing goes. We start the day fishing cicada's and end the day fishing cicada's from the boat. I know most of us would rather fish dry flies, but right now all methods are working well. The weather has been fairly warm, but we have had the pleasure of cloud cover in the afternoon. Hardly any wind to speak of, basically perfect conditions. We still have slots open, so those of you that can get way for a couple days, this would be the perfect time to do so. In my opinion this is the very best fishing Lee's Ferry has to offer the size, numbers, and weather conditions all coming together for us to take advantage of, and have a great time on the ferry. If we can be of service, please contact us. Rocky & Mick

Fishing Report July 2nd 2010

Hello all my fellow fishers,
July is here, the cicadas are singin, the water is up under the trees, and the trout are taking the "big bugs". We have been throwing cicadas at the banks for the last two weeks, and have been fairly successful, but now that we are in July the high water is here and we expect the fishing to pick up. It always does. We are now fishing strictly from the boat. The weather has been calm and warm, with some occasional afternoon sprinkles. So when you come bring a big hat, sunscreen, shorts, and your sandals. 6 and 7 weight rods can be an arm saver, for those of you that have them. We are using 9' 3x leaders, and sizes 6-8 cicada patterns, in black, or chocolate brown. For those of you that have fly shops close by, don't be afraid to bring a selection of cicadas. The action is fast and furious, so those of you that want to fish 3 people to a boat, is a good time to do so, because by the time you have sat in the shade and had a cold drink, it will be your turn again. This is the only time of year we encourage 3 anglers to a boat. Deep nymphing, eddie fishing, and streamers, are all tactics that will also produce good numbers, but why when you can be throwing the "big bugs" from the boat. So hope to here from you soon, and those of you that are already booked, we are looking forward to fishing with you. Rocky and Mick
