I've been on the Crow the last 2 evenings. The dry fly fishing has been tough. August can be tough. In spite of the weak PMD hatch I managed to locate a couple nice trout eating dries. I missed one feeding in a difficult location but landed the other. The fish in the back eddies are mainly on emergers but I did spot a few eating PMD duns. The PMD's are much smaller now probably size 18 and under. And the fish eating them are more discerning especially in the slow sections. The river is low and you have to be real careful when wading the flat water. Slow down and look hard. You have to hunt for them. The odd one out there is still sipping. Challenging angling... long leaders.
There are grasshoppers around.
