I've been trying with sjws, wire worms, stonefly nymphs, and I've tried black woollybuggers

Yes, south of the calf robe bridge is where the good fishing is at. A red wire worm works wonders in the winter.

It is really tough flyfishing in the winter in Bowness. I wait until March, where I sometimes get a fish.
