BWOs popping off on the Lower Savage River
I fished the lower Savage yesterday and the BWO hatch was great. It didn't start till about 1 pm, but it lasted a good 3 hrs and the fish were really keying in on them. I caught all of my fish on size 22 nymphs, but there were plenty of fish taking bugs off the surface. The flow dropped to 90 CFS which is my favorite flow to fish. This hatch should last most of the spring and will start to mix with Blue Quills in the next week or two. I did not see any little black stones on the water, but they should still be in play for a little while longer.
