Red River Fly Fishing Reports March 1999

Ed Adams New Mexico Fly Fishing GuideWeather continued mild and dry.Lots of bugs: Caddis, Stones and Mayflies with the top water action getting better with rising water temps getting into the mid 50*s. Fishing was excellent most days for resident browns [12-14"]. March is one of the best months on the Red especially during this drought cycle we have been in for the past few years and will continue until runoff which I don't think we will see this year. Patterns are the same as February with more emphasis on the Caddis. On 3/20 I was with a client and we had 2 kayakers come downstream on us and after they passed the action ceased..I hope this isn't a sign of things to come.
