Big Lost River 9-21-09

Flow out of Mackay Dam is between 300 & 350 cfs. That’s quite a bit higher than normal, but the river still can be waded with caution.  Midges, BWO and terrestrial patterns are the best for top water action.  Small bead head nymphs will bring the best action below.  Look for the lower flows, cooler temps, and shorter days of October to bring improved fishing.
