Conditions

The Saint Joe is delivering outstanding summer dry-fly fishing right now. Hopper season is in full swing alongside Yellow Sallies and caddis, with beetles and ants producing well as terrestrial fishing improves daily. Falling water is settling fish into predictable feeding lanes and pocket water holds smaller nymphs. Fish early and late to make the most of cooler hours.

Techniques

  • Yellow Sallies and caddis still important, terrestrial fishing continues to improve each day. Large Chubby Chernobyls fished with a dropper underneath remain effective
