The North Platte is a system of dams and tailwaters,
all with their unique characteristics. The two most popular places
for flyfishermen are Grey's Reef and the Miracle Mile. Grey's Reef
holds lots of huge
cuttbows and rainbows. It's not uncommon to look down at your feet
and see 5-10 20+ inch fish. These fish feed aggressively and large
tippets are needed to haul in these hawgs. The "Mile" is known
for its huge browns, with fish over 10 pounds not uncommon, especially
during the fall runs. This section of river also holds a healthy
population of rainbows that are eager to take almost any fly. |
