Fishing Report - Oct. 12, 2025

The East is still running at about 49 cfs right now and is still fishing pretty well. There's still some good streamer action in the mornings and some good dry/dropper action throughout the day. Some anglers are also still having some good success nymphing off of an indicator. The best action still seems to be below the bridge while the Miracle Mile section still seems to be mostly in recovery mode. Some patterns to consider: dead drift crayfish, Dali Lama, sculpzilla, naked chubby, rubber leg stimulator, perdigon, flashback emerger, zebra midge, darth baetis, rubberlegs. 

We're still getting mostly good reports from the ranch, there's still some good streamer action throughout the day as well as some decent dry/dropper action. It sounds like the streamer action is the best. You could also go straight nymphing and likely have some success. 

The pond fished well for some anglers and not as well for others this week. It sounds like if you're up to changing out some bugs if it's slow you should be able to get into some good fish. Some days they're liking the leeches and soft hackles the best while other days they're liking dries like parachute Adams and PMD's the best. You can also try dropping a small nymph like a zebra midge, rainbow warrior or flashback emerger off of a dry for some action. 

Bridgeport has been a little hit and miss lately with some decent reports coming in from the shore as well as from boats but also some not so good reports coming in as well. Some of the successful trolling has been with night crawlers, Thomas Bouyants and Rapalas while some of the good bait reports have been with pinched crawlers, inflated crawlers, garlic power bait and mice tails. 

Had one report this past week from an angler who was able to catch just one brookie in the 17" range, overall it was obviously a slow day but hopefully at some point it will get better up there. 

The Twins have been fishing well with good reports coming in from trollers as well as bait anglers. We haven't talked to any fly anglers up there lately but there should be some good action near the inlets stripping streamers with nymph droppers. There has been some nice browns making a showing, some up to almost 4 pounds as well as some good rainbows in the 2 to 5 pound range. For trolling you can try Thomas Bouyants, Rapalas and Kastmasters and for bait go with pinched crawlers, mice tails, inflated crawlers and power bait. You can also likely have some success jigging mini jigs like Hook Up Baits, Golden State jigs and Sierra Slammers. 

There's still been some decent action on the West with some good reports coming in from spin anglers fishing Panther Martins and Rooster Tails, and some bait anglers fishing power eggs, mini crawlers and salmon eggs. The fly anglers are still picking up some fish with hopper/dropper rigs as well as some small buggers drifted near the bottom. 

The Virginias are still producing good fish both from the shore as well as from tubes/kayaks. Bait anglers are using power bait, crawlers, pinched crawlers and mice tails and lure anglers are getting some fish with Thomas Buoyants and Kastmasters. Fly anglers are doing the best with soft hackles and mini leeches stripped near the bottom with sinking lines. 

The weather is starting to change a bit with nighttime temps as low as the high teens but mostly in the 20's. Daytime temps are still pretty good, in the 60's though we are expecting some snow later this week so bring your warm clothes when you make your trip!
