Fishing Report August 1, 2024

Hey there anglers! Mike Winkler here with your latest update from the Little Red River. 

The generation schedule has been pretty consistent lately, with the SWPA projecting water releases starting around 1 pm. They’ve been running 2 units for about 7 to 10 hours each day. 

Fishing has been good, especially if you get out there early in the morning before the temperatures start to rise. During these early hours, the water has a nice flow and is dropping from the previous day’s release. 

Fish have been holding in the deeper sections with moss beds and around shoals with nearby deep water. 

For flies, you can’t go wrong with pheasant tail nymphs, hare’s ears, and midges. These have been the hot flies lately.

Tight lines, and happy fishing!
