Yep. Winter. Now.
@1630 Sunday it was 45F, partly cloudy and dead calm.
@ 1632 Sunday it was 31F, blowing out of the north 17mph, and snowing.
Sunday night snowing hard and damn cold.
This morning. Cold. Snowy.
Maybe baetis will come now.
Nobody around. A perfect ploy.
Water temps plummeting this week. They should fall quickly with the air temps falling well below the 20F range! During the day. Mostly lower though.
The fishing? Decent.
Swinging can be really good. Streamer fishing pretty good too.
Nymphing? Not as good as it should be, but not terrible either. We are so fortunate to be here on the Mo. It’s good. Just not an “11” right now. Depends on the day. Some days they just eat it better.
Dries? Near dusk for the weekend. Today and this week? Don’t even want to hazard a guess. Cold I think…

Looks like winter is taking hold. I had two great trips with your crew this year and already booked for next year. I will be practicing my casting all winter here in California so I can make that first cast count!
Thanks Bigfoot! First cast is the best cast!
