Bighorn River - Spring Fly Box

Fish the Bighorn like you know it — because now you do.   The Bighorn River Spring Fly Box is hand-curated specifically for the conditions, hatches, and trout behavior you'll encounter on the Bighorn from April through early June. Spring on the Bighorn is outstanding. Stable flows from Yellowtail Dam, clear water, and fish that have been feeding all winter make the Bighorn one of the most consistent spring fisheries in the country.   This box is built around the Bighorn's spring hatch calendar — midges, BWOs, and early PMDs. Every fly was chosen with dry fly fishing and technical nymphing in mind, giving you exactly what you need to match what the fish are eating at this time of year.   What's in the box: 36 flies total — 18 unique patterns, 2 of each — covering midge clusters, BWO dries, PMD emergers, and small nymph patterns. No filler. No patterns that don't belong on this river in this season.   Pro tip from the water: Spring midge hatches on the Bighorn can produce incredible surface activity. Fish size 20-22 midge patterns and be prepared for refusals — these are educated, well-fed trout.   Whether you're making your first trip to the Bighorn or you fish it every season, this box gives you a proven starting lineup so you can spend more time fishing and less time digging through bins at the fly shop.   Includes a quality waterproof fly box. All flies are hand-tied to Bozeman FlyWorks standards — the same quality we'd put on our own lines.
