caddis on lower madison

Thursday, May 6, 2021

May 06, 2021

1190 CFS @ Ennis - Flows on the Lower Madison River have actually dropped over the past few days and the river is in great shape. Caddis are out in big numbers but the best dry fly fishing has certainly been in the evenings. Get out and enjoy it while you can. The cooler weather predicted over the weekend may slow things down. There are also plenty of March Browns.

Recommended Flies:

Parachute Caddis #14
Royal Wulff #10
CDC Caddis Emerger #16
Caddis Pupa #16
SH Hares Ear #16

1490 CFS @ Ennis - The Lower Madison has Caddis! The last few days of warm afternoon weather have brought on the beginning of the Caddis Hatch on the Lower Madison river. Dry fly fishing has been sporadic but will typically be better in the later afternoons once the bugs return to the water. There are also still plenty of March Browns and a few baetis around. Nymphing has still been good with worm, egg or crayfish patterns trailed with caddis or baetis emergers of some sort. Dry fly fishing should pick up as the weather warms up a bit.

Recommended Flies:

Elk Hair Caddis #14
Parachute Caddis #12
SH Hare's Ear #14
Delekta Worm #12
Sparkle Pupa #16
