General Information:

The Pit is still fishing well, especially from late morning through the afternoon, whenever the temperatures are a little warmer. There's not a lot of insects hatching, so the most productive flies on the Pit River have been Rubberlegs, Baetis Nymphs and Midge Patterns.

Fishing Conditions:

There are BWO's hatching on the overcast days. Nymphing has been most productive, with midge larvae, mayfly, caddis, or small attractors such as Princes and Copper johns.

The Fly Shop's?? Tips: Be ready for tough wading conditions when fishing this river. Flat ground DOES NOT exist here! A wading staff is highly recommended.... almost mandatory. Many bones (wrist, arm, ankle, leg) and fly rods (Sage, Loomis, Scott, etc..) have been broken here. Move slow, and keep solid footing while in the water. (But just in case... pack some dry clothes, snake kit and don't forget to dry out your fly-box at the end of the day!)
