Pecos River - November 3rd, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
46 °
FISHING: Great
Blue wing olives are providing consistent action, in spite of some cold water temps. We're talking dries here, periods where those of you with good eyesight can set tiny hooks in some happy rising fish. Believe it or not, hoppers will work at times too. For very consistent action, remember the small beadheads, zebras, PTs, tiny princes, and whatever you've got that can get down in the zone without the use of shot (if you must, use Dinsmore #6 or 8). Beautiful out there.

Pecos River - October 18th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
73 °
FISHING: Excellent
Same as it's been for long long time. Itty bitty plus floaty floaty equals rainbow brownie. As the days warm up, float a small hopper/big caddis with a small bead under it. Not a bad idea either to run your nymphs under a small parachute adams or royal humpy, so that when the weight of the nymph takes the dry fly down, you can still mark the progress of your rig. Sight fishing is still a fun way to do it.

Pecos River - October 5th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
75 °
FISHING: Excellent
Stocking trucks are doing double duty in the canyon, which means throw the kitchen sink and you'll probably get a bite on it. Your biggest challenge will be getting them off the hook in time to get your next one. While the getting's this good, hone your sight fishing game. There are some big ones too. The best nymph? A nymph. The best dry? A dry. The gnarly weather will only make the fish more stupider.
Monument's pretty blissful too. Heavy small nymphs will do you proud.

Pecos River - September 28th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
80 °
FISHING: Good
It's the time of year when fish are on the lookout for very small BWOs and predators. On the mainstem river, a comparadun trailed by a midge emerger should produce well, but if you think you can just mail it in, be prepared for RETURN TO SENDER. Your casts need to be soft, and your drifts natural and loose. On the tribs like the Mora and Panchuela, attractor dries will still fill your day with love and pleasantness. Elk hair caddis or royal humpies would be my choices.

Pecos River - September 15th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
77 °
FISHING: Great
Ants and small caddis if you want to ride the surf. Snorkeling same story as the broken record for the past few weeks - small bead heads, light enough so as not to snag the bottom. I don't think you can just tie on a hopper and dial up a fish anymore. Maybe challenge your eyesight by fishing something smaller than usual or more drab. The old blue dun dry fly can still kick some butt.

Pecos River - September 8th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
80 °
FISHING: Great
In light of the year's drought and fires and such, the current flow on the Pecos is quite robust for September. So it's little caddis dries, ants, still hoppers, and trudes. Our recent favorite dry is called the hippy stomper, which pretty much covers all the bases of ants and beetles and spiders.
Underwater, you're fishing small beadies, something light enough to not hang up on the bottom. Anato-mays are what's hot right now (everyone's still trying to knock off the horsemen - PTs, Princes, Hare's Ears, and now Copper Johns as if such a thing is possible). Let's see, micro mays, zebras, and jackals should wrap it up, if you really need to work that hard.
Hike above Cowles for some cutties too.

Pecos River - September 1st, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
92 °
FISHING: Good
Fishing should be good............if you can find a spot. It's Labor Day, folks, which means that either people are getting their last camping trip in or they're going to be hung over from Fiestas or both. A ninja cicada dropping a micro may, wire caddis, or small renegade should do the job fine. This time of year, I'm blissing out on the coming of fall; I just want a rig I can pay attention to every now and then and know I'll have fish on it at some point.

Pecos River - August 22nd, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
82 °
FISHING: Great
Water's finally here, big booms of the last days as they were. The water tripled last night and is on the drop. Expect dry fly fishing to be super good as things stabilize. I'm loving the super hots these days, and hornbergs, and we have these new mini foam hoppers that are really over the top and will make you feel so mad when you lose one in a tree. With all this rain, remember there will be drowned earthworms in the flow. Fish accordingly.

Pecos River - August 11th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
93 °
FISHING: Great
The water's still extremely low, and depending on the weather, it's getting pretty warm by mid P.M. Start early with tiny dries. I'm liking the mini hot these days, in all colors. Anything yellow sally will work just fine. You might start fishing 6x, if only to get less micro drag on your bugs. Slow your approach too. Not only will you avoid spooking the little loafers in the tailouts, but you'll get to do some exciting sight-fishing.

Pecos River - August 5th, 2011
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
80 °
FISHING: Excellent
It's been raining heavily in spots, and the flows are getting pretty stable thanks to a full riparian sponge. As the levels jump a little, the water gets some stain too it. Nothing a red San Juan worm can't handle or, honestly, your favorite dry fly. Some of the fish are a little skinny, but others are fat; they've all got some catching up to do. There are gray scuds in there and caddis in flight. Small, heavy headed flies like zebras, wire caddis pupae in green, and crystal pheasant tails are the nymphs to use. Drop them off a Fat Albert or some other foamy pattern.
