S6, Ep 46: Ellis Ward's East Tennessee Euphoria: Dry Flies and Midge Magic

Host Marvin Cash reels in another exciting East Tennessee fishing report with local expert Ellis Ward on The Articulate Fly. As the seasons shift, Ellis shares his enthusiasm for the potential dry fly action, thanks to the upcoming weather changes bringing consistent rainfall and cooler temperatures to the region.

Ellis discusses the impact of recent water releases on the South Holston River, creating opportunities for anglers to explore waters that have been unfished for months. With the unlocking of predator lies and the dispersal of debris, the stage is set for a dynamic fishing experience. He highlights the promise of the sulphur hatch and offers sage advice on fly selection, including his trusty submerged midge patterns and topwater strategies.

Responding to a listener's question, Ellis delves into his favorite midge patterns for the season, emphasizing the effectiveness of a black zebra midge with a touch of shine. For surface action, he suggests patterns like the Griffith's Gnat and the CDC Puff Daddy, while also providing tips for managing tiny flies and delicate hook sets.

Whether you're a seasoned angler or new to the waters of East Tennessee, this episode is a treasure trove of insights and tips from Ellis Ward. Tune in to refine your approach, learn what's hatching and get ready to make the most of the upcoming conditions.
