TACTICAL TUESDAY FALL EURO NYMPHING - If you are into the European Methods, don’t forget to nymph some big bugs this fall. I like to tie streamer patterns on jig nymph hooks so it is easy to not only dead drift, but also twitch back at the end of your drift. Here is one of my favorite patterns for this technique: Hook: TMC 403 BLJ #8 Bead: Slotted Faceted Black 4 mm Tail: Black Marabou, Purple Flashabou Body: Spectra Dubbing (Fine) Fiery Black Collar: Black Hen Neck @kelso_ff Pick up your materials for this fly @bluequillangler or online links in our bio ...

FLIES OF THE WEEK A little meatball action this week with the BQA staff picks! Can’t really go wrong this time of year with an egg fly as an attractor! Fish eat-em in our rivers and lakes, as fly fishermen we imitate what fish naturally eat. Let’s just leave it at that folks, we all know it sparks a little something... Egg flies Left to right: Otter’s Embryo Egg from @montanaflycompany . Mini Weighted Egg and Flashtail Mini Egg from @umpquafeathermerchants . Nuclear Egg specially tied for the BQA! Stop by the shop or check out our online store for these wonderful patterns.

Trico Twist - Pat Dorsey @patdorseyflyfishing The Trico hatch becomes a bit confusing this time of year. When the evenings get cool, the males don’t hatch between 5 p.m. and dark like they do during the summer months. Instead, they emerge in the morning; the two hatches become one (i.e., both the males and females hatch in the morning), and the duns become more important than the spinners. The males begin hatching around 9 p.m., followed by the females around 11 a.m. The spinner fall occurs between noon and 1 p.m. Many anglers confuse the Trico duns for blue-winged olives. They do resemble one another, but upon closer inspection you’ll discover that they are, in fact, Trico duns. One major clue that helps to distinguish them is that Tricos typically hatch in the morning hours, and blue winged olives hatch between 1 and 3 p.m. The good news is that any upright mayfly dun pattern in a size 24 fools fish on the Trico duns. Oftentimes, the Trico and blue winged olive hatches overlap each other. In many cases, you can fish dry flies all day, especially if inclement was or overcast skies are present.

TALES FROM ADRIFT - Many of the people I’ve guided over the years are out on the water for more than just the fish. Maybe not to reach the surface of some seemingly insurmountable inundation or to make good on a promise of a better life, but at least a day away from their routine...a moment to escape to nature. Everyone has a story, the closer I stand with them, it often becomes clear that the fish are just a bonus. For some people fly fishing is the first great opportunity to immerse in wild nature, a chance to break free of the rigamarole of constricting life, Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing is often the arbitrator of their perplexity. I had the distinct pleasure of fishing with naval veteran Janice last week through the Take a Vet Fishing program at @phwff. First time Angler and best ever ringer, Janice, reminded me what I felt when I stopped chasing fish and just started to drift. She just did it on her first day, it only took me about 10 years. At one point she said something like, “I didn’t hear anything you just said, I was watching my drift.” It was an extraordinary day, snow storm, frozen fingers (mine) and all. To get people to land fish is obviously one of the goals on my guide trips, but to share with someone a day that takes their mind off of the tomfoolery of every day life, and maybe even share with them a tool to take their mind off future days of hootenanny, the same tools that get me through to my next day, is more important than all the fish I’ve ever caught and more meaningful than all the time I’ve ever spent waving a stick and slapping the water at an animal with a brain one-fifteenth the size of a similarly sized fishing guide. It makes all the bad days I’ve ever had scaring fish (and many of my good ones) seem less significant. It’s easy for me to remember how important a role fly fishing has played in helping me be a happier person and finally finding calm and joy in my life, but I still have to stop every now and again and remind myself that I may be sharing a section of river with someone going through the same process...I know sometimes it’s hard to believe. We all have different ways of expressing ourselves.

IN THE DROPOFF Wave action is very important to fly fishermen on Still Water! That wave action basically gets things moving throughout the lake, Including; food, oxygen and water temperatures. It can turn the Stillwater almost into a river situation. Strong current lines and the added wave action provide movement just like river situations. One of the best ways to attack the wave action is set yourself up parallel to the waves/wind with an indicator rig setup. Cast across the wave/wind action and not into it. This will help you be more effective with your casts. Let your drifts go with the wave action, pretty much like a dead drift in a river. Change depths until you find what depth the fish are feeding in. Add weight as needed to get your flies down. Remember, the more wave action the more weight you will need to get those flies down. If you use the wave action to your advantage you can have some very explosive and productive days out on our local still waters! Josef Shafer @joeshaferflyfishing and Jerry Vigil @jerryvigil Posts are up every Thursday. Stay tuned, please follow us and share with your friends. @bluequillangler #bluequillangler #inthedropoff #stillwaterflyfishing #stillwater #stillwaters #flyfishing #flyfishingtips #waves #wind #onthewater #flyfishingcolorado #coloradoflyfishing #coloradoangler #coloradoanglers #onthefly #coloradolakes #helpfulhints #trout #troutfishing #findyourwater #nymphing #spinneymountainreservoir #coparkswildlife #flyfishinglife #flyfishingguide
