PMD Humpy- Dry Fly Fish Idaho

Thursday, January 21, 2010
posted by geoff

If your summer vacation plans are bringing you to dry fly fish Idaho this summer I have the perfect attractor fly that can be used anywhere in the state.  The PMD Humpy from Dry Fly Innovations is the ideal summer time fly that is a big, plump, and juicy morsel that trout have a hard time turning down.  With the standard hook down wing up the PMD Humpy will have perfect presentation every time, and it floats like a cork in the water.  There is absolutely no mystery where the PMD Humpy is on the waters at any time.  You can effectively dry fly fish Idaho with the PMD Humpy at all elevations and on any lake, river, stream, or tail waters.  The PMD is a great universal fly that should be in any fly box when hitting any Idaho waters.

Dry Fly Innovations ties the PMD Humpy in four sizes (#16, #14, #12, and #10).  If you have been reading the previous blogs then you are privy on my recommendations on what sizes to use in the Idaho high country and on lower elevation rivers.  If this is your first time reading then you are in luck because I will give you the right recipe right now on what flies to use.  If you are dry fly fishing Idaho in the higher elevations I would tie on a PMD Humpy in a size #16 or #14.  If you are dry fly fishing Idaho on the South Fork of the Boise River I would tie on a #12 or #10.  The PMD Humpy has an iridescent thorax that has the ability to attract the monster trout that come from the depths of the water.  The PMD Humpy does not mimic anything in the wild and should be fished just like a stimulator.  All species of trout that Idaho has to offer are vulnerable to the PMD Humpy.  Grab some PMD Humpy’s and come dry fly fish Idaho this summer and have the ultimate Idaho fly fishing experience.
