Davidson River Fly-fishing Report
Updated Every Wednesday
Water Conditions: Good water, clear. Davidson River Flow
Hatches: bwos, midges (cream, gray, brownish), tan caddis

General Information Make sure you make every cast count and sneak up to the big fish. 6x flourocarbon is a must, 7x nylon may even be called for with dry fly fishing. But if it’s dingy you can maybe try 5x. There have been pretty consistent midge hatches in the morning and evening. At our shops, we have a great selection of midge patterns, as well as bwos and caddis. Also, don’t get cold out there! Check out our awesome Simms waders and outerwear.
Projected Conditions:The river should fish well all week! Look for mid-morning and evening hatches to come off. If it rains heavy, re-rig with something big and dark and add weight.
Be careful if there is a lightning storm. You don’t want to be standing in water with a rod in your hand.
