Bighorn Tricos Heavy as Ever
My friend and long time fishing companion, John Beth, just returned from the Bighorn. He and his friends fished Trico duns and spinners, and plied the waters with nymphs and streamers in the off-hatch times. As always the ‘Horn was welcoming, and they did very well. John’s best in the Trico hatch and spinner fall was a 20/20 brown—good work old friend. There were bigger fish, but it’s always fun to take a nice fish (20”) on a tiny fly (size 20).
Early morning on the ‘Horn can be stunning.
Especially stunning when the hatch is this heavy!
John’s 20/20 brown–a very healthy fish!
