Fishing Locations

 The latest blast of winter dropped the water temps and most likely slowed the fishing for the last couple days. The coming week is nice weather that should get the fish back on a good feed. Nymphing  is the best option with stoneflies and general attractors such as copper johns or lightning bugs. Streamer fishing has been decent and getting better with smaller natural colored streamers. Always be careful wading and floating on the Stillwater, this can be a dangerous river if you're not paying attention, especially when some ice starts to form. No need to get out and start fishing early, you will be fine if get to the river around 10 o'clock.
