Dry Fly’s for the Lower Shoshone River (during winter
months)
Here are 4 simple dry Fly’s that cover most
situations during the winter months on the Shoshone River. I fish
them all on 5 or 6X fluro. I use the heavy hook to increase
durability of the fly on 30 fish days. The river is on fire so come
give it a try. See you there!
