UGLY BUG FLY SHOP'S DESTINATION FISHING TRIPS ALL OVER THE WORLD

Bolivia Bound Bolivia Bound. Meanwhile, those of us in Casper fish through another fall snow storm. I think Blake, Sara, Rex, and Denny had it right by trekking south of the equator to fish. Golden Dorado is what they are chasing and from the looks of these photos they’ve been successful... Often, as anglers, we are faced with untimely and unforgiving river conditions. These four arrived in Bolivia to blown out rivers and less than ideal weather. They did not let it stop them. Sometimes you just have to send it! So what's the takeaway, you ask? The message is that we should never let mother nature spoil the fun! Attitude and willingness are everything in life- and in fishing too. Whether you’re the type to wait it out or fish it out, the river always provides. While some choose fishing an alternate section of river, others seek an entirely different watershed altogether. We have those options here in Central Wyoming. Between the Mile, the Grey Reef, and the Big Horn there is always somewhere to fish. So grab your gear and go anyways because you will never catch the fish of a lifetime if you don’t get out and try. Is it cold-weather gear you need- we got it.

Quintessential North Platte Fishing Picture When a picture is worth a thousand words... The epitome of fall fishing on the famous North Platte River in Casper, Wyoming is landing the elusive brown trout. Client Andy Hart has done just that. But why stop with the fish? The backdrop is just as beautiful with the leaves turning, showcasing that beloved brown and gold! Seasons change on dime around these parts and sometimes Wyoming doesn't see an Indian Summer or a colorful autumn. This year is a mighty fine exception to that rule and we are soaking it up! Don't live vicariously through Andy. Come have some fun with Crazy Rainbow Fly Fishing- or at least allow us here at the Ugly Bug to point you in the right direction. Fishing Reports Mile: 540cfs 4' to an AB worms, MacGrubers, and Rs2's. But it's the Mile and fishing can be different from day to day so be sure to bring you full arsenal to be prepared. Be careful driving to the mile this week as we have seen significant snow. Reef: 500cfs 5' to a BB baetis patterns, BWO's, and leeches Fremont: 85cfs Fremont usually fishes much like the Reef so it would be helpful to have those same baetis, BWO's, and other small black midge options at the ready.
