General Info

Specific Tips

Don't hesitate to use a good scud pattern in olive or tan. The Breeches are full of them and they are evident all year. Try sizing down on your fly pattern if the fish get picky. This is a great time of year to throw streamers.

If the "Breeches" is unfishable, we do have some great Spring Creeks in the area.
