The Eggs Benedict Pattern Makes an Appearance..4 Years n Counting!

The Eggs Benedict Pattern is What To Use Spring and Fall
to keep with the egg theme



No this is not your typical breakfast, this is a gourmet meal coming down the River and very hard to resist!

It was derived from a trip we had 4 years ago (4 year reunion writing about it) to the Grey Reef and some may ask? Did it work? Well, we're still using it and though many Big Trout may get easily confused, a 25" Grey Reef Cutty beast fell victim and it keeps me using it every Spring/Fall until they outlaw it!!

What Egg Patterns should you use? Here's a few but my best tip is to use 3 varied colors for that water spread out 12-14" apart. Sizes and colors always change depending upon the spawn cycle, but the result stays the same -Fish On, Now Bring Me Some More Eggs!!

Skwala Hatch Spring Fishing Missoula Montana

Montana Spring Fishing Reports

Spring fishing in Montana doesn't get much better than this says my Pal Martin from Missoula.
"Big grins all day in April, 2009"
Bitterroot River, between Hamilton and Darby.

The root is waking up and the skwalas are migrating. The rainbows are stacking up and starting up their spawning chanels. Nymph in the A.M. skwala, s/w worm, hares ear, red c/j.
Dry skwala with a s/w worm dropper in the P.M. Weather is hit and miss right now. Dress for anything and have fun


Today with the weather being on the wet side there were no visable hatches taking place. Checking under the rocks revealed many skwala nymphs congregating near shore preparing to emerge. The skwala hatch is close but might be delayed as the weather is predicted to be cold for the following week.
