Bear Creek River Report
Bear Creek River Report
6-25-2024
Flows continue to drop and drop quickly in stark contrast to other areas. Fish have been pretty spread out, so it pays to walk a bit. Also keep a eye out on water temps as the flows drop and the summer heat warms the water. A earlier start will help until we get some rain. As per usual, the smaller pulloffs will produce better than the bigger more well known parks and pulloffs. You will also encounter less dogs and people in the water as well on those. Current hatches are caddis, BWO, PMD, and midges.
...
For dries, use a Micro Chubby, AR's BWO, Superman Caddis, Emerger BWO, Parachute Adams, Foam Run Caddis, Chubby Chernobyl, Hi Vis BWO, Quill Midge, and a Hippy Stomper.
