Fly fishing with the San Juan Worm in the winter time can be a very effective technique, particularly in coldwater fisheries where fish may be less active and less likely to chase after fast-moving lures. Here are a few tips for fishing the San Juan Worm in the winter:
Fish deeper: In the winter, many fish will move to deeper, slower-moving water where the temperature is more stable. Look for areas with a good drop-off or current seam, and use a heavier fly line or leader to help get your San Juan Worm down to the fish.
Experiment with different colors: In low light conditions, fish may be more attracted to brighter, more visible colors. Try using San Juan Worms in chartreuse, pink, or other bright shades to see what works best in your local waters.
Pay attention to the water temperature: In very cold water, fish may be even less active and less likely to bite. If you are having a hard time getting fish to bite, try fishing in areas where the water is slightly warmer, such as near springs or in areas with a good flow of water.
I hope these tips are helpful! As with any type of fishing, it is always a good idea to pay attention to the conditions and adjust your techniques accordingly. Good luck on the water!
