North Platte Fly Fishing-BIG BROWN TROUT


26″,26″,27″…these are the lengths of some of the big browns that have been hitting the inside of our nets.  It seems with the silty conditions downstream we are seeing a HUGE influx of browns on upper Grey Reef.  We are seeing fish on a daily basis over the 20″ mark and in the past seven days we’ve seen 3 over 25″.  They’ve all been on big articulated streamers or nymphing with ice minnows, uv leeches, etc….basically BIG stuff!  The last two days have been ridiculous in regards to the streamer bite…overcast works wonders.  Obviously we are catching great numbers of slab rainbows as well.  If you want to see some of our more recent catches, check us out on Facebook.
