Missouri River - January 23rd, 2011
supplied by: Big R Fly Shop
RECORDED: 
46 °
FISHING: Fair
Fished the Missouri river today down lower by the Dearborn and up above Wolf Creek Bridge swinging streamers and nymphing with a couple of the guys. Got one fish swinging a small streamer pattern with the double hand down low, and one on a nymph. Went up higher on the river and we caught some more on nymphs. Fishing was okay but not super fast paced. There were a ton of olive scuds in the river, they were even stuck in my wading boots when I was taking them off afterwards. Of course we weren't on the ball enough to throw olive scud patterns. We caught fish nymphing on hot head soft hackles and the Tailwater Charlie. It was plenty warm enough but the extremely high winds still made it feel cold up there. Can't wait for spring weather!

Missouri River - January 19th, 2011
supplied by: The Trout Shop
RECORDED: 
36 °
FISHING: Fair
Normal temperatures in the 30's to low 40's have slipped into the area. Clouds and some wind will greet you on the river. While it may seem warmer than what we have grown accustomed to, it likely will stay cool enough to keep any bugs below the surface. Think pink.
This weekend will climb to the low 40's. Football games will likely keep us off the river. If you make it to the river, don't worry. You'll have it to yourself (for miles).

Windy!!! 1 broken rod, broken reel, and Justin fell in the river. I'm not sure the temp on the river but it was super cold with the wind. Every thing was freezing and locking up. We hooked some good fish on pink stuff and scuds.

RECORDED: 
12 °
FISHING: Fair
It is a white Christmas indeed. I was out this weekend below Holter with my spey. My buddy caught one football rainbow. I had a couple on that I lost trying to get my scandi line back through my eyelets. It was very cold out, luckily there was no wind. I think 12 degrees is a good cut off point for me from now on. That or fish closer to your car!

Missouri River - December 13th, 2010
supplied by: Big R Fly Shop
RECORDED:
50 °
FISHING: Great
The warm weather recently has made the fish active. Quite a few anglers were out on the Missouri this weekend. Didn't notice many fish up consistently although I did see a few heads. Caught all my fish swinging streamers. Flows are high and most everyone fishing were catching fish nymphing. Streamers to try would include anything you can move slow and deep such as the Mini Loop Sculpin. Nymphs to fish right now would be the Pink Amex, Zebra midges, Rainbow Czech nymphs, Ray Charles, Tailwater Charlie, Sunkist, Hot head Soft Hackle, and the Tung Teaser. All the fish landed were larger rainbows, and I was above Wolf Creek bridge.

Missouri River - December 13th, 2010
supplied by: The Trout Shop
RECORDED:
44 °
FISHING: Good
We tried to find a reason to watch the Vikings' game last Sunday. It was suppose to be cold and windy on the river and we kinda sorta told you to stay home. It wasn't that windy and the Vikings didn't play anyway. In our defense, it's not every day that the dome on the the Metrodome collapses. It's not every day that the weather turns to -(minus) 20° with 17 inches of fresh snow. Not even the Metrodome could handle the pressure. The heated top of the Metrodome igloo simply could not raise enough heat to keep the unwanted weight-of-the-snow off the roof. Eventually, the roof came down and turned the field into an ice rink. There's no doubt, we should have been fishing. Balmy temperatures and relatively calm winds provided a little top water activity with midges. The Vikings didn't show up to play on Monday against the Giants either. Yep, we blew that one.
It doesn't look good for much of the rest of the week according to our new weather channel. Wind, followed by cool (below 25°), shapes the week. It's OK, you should be spending time with your family anyway. High temperature Sunday: 19°.
Of course, we have to have a sales pitch thrown into the fishing report this time of year. If you want a continual sales pitch, go to our River Wire blog.
Here goes the Christmas pitch...... We have in-stock over 2,000 products from a wide variety of top fly fishing manufacturers. If you're looking for top quality products with enough depth to provide you with options, you're looking in the right place. While we are loyal retailers and true to the brand, we insist that our suppliers prove their products' worthiness before we will stock them in our store. Having the ability to choose the best products available in the fly fishing industry, after carefully examining all that our suppliers have to offer, makes a difference to you. We don't carry everything offered by everybody, we carefully select what we think is the best product available for the job and promote it in our store.
It's Christmas. Check out our Bargain Center for tremendous savings. We have a lot of stuff to sell and don't waste anytime clearing out discontinued or redesigned merchandise. Most of the time the changes are minimal. For example, a color change may be the reason an item is discontinued. If you're looking for a bargain on something, you're very likely to find it on our site.
Don't forget about our services. It's easy to build a custom package with us. Put our experience and local knowledge to work for you. Don't worry about logistics. Worry about making the perfect cast with a size #20 dry fly. From simply needing a river shuttle to coordinating a complete lodging & guiding package, we'll make sure you get what you pay for - professionalism.
We know that you're serious about fly fishing. It's your passion. It's our passion too. Passion is what has kept us in business under the same ownership for twenty-one years. We have the products and the professional staff needed to help you spend more time on the river. And, we owe it all to you.
Thank you and Happy Holidays.
