Hi I'm going down to the bow today and was wondering what flys are working rate now on the bow river.

Try using a large San Juan Worm with prince nymph, pheasant tail, or gold ribbed hare's ear dropper (about a #14).

Also try a peacock leech (Fishtales has them). Those things are deadly year round on the Bow, and everywhere else I've tried them. Fish them as a dropper and make sure you let them swing and dangle, like a streamer. Best of luck.

Last time I went out I was using a Size 4 SJW and a size 18 Cronimid and did really well on it.

Yo was that the day of the Fly Fishing Expo?
