S6, Ep 133: Streamer Strategies and Seasonal Shifts with Ellis Ward

In this episode of The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash is joined by East Tennessee fishing guide Ellis Ward for an insightful fishing report. Ellis shares the latest conditions on the South Holston River, highlighting the shift from high flows of over 3,000 CFS to a more manageable 400 CFS. This change opens up new fishing opportunities as anglers can now wade and access areas previously too challenging during high water.

Ellis discusses the impact of these flow changes on the river ecosystem, noting the push for increased minimum flows to protect the river's health. He also delves into the nuances of night fishing as winter approaches, sharing tips on how the longer nights affect bite windows and the behavior of brown trout.

As the episode wraps up, Marvin reminds listeners to submit their fishing questions for a chance to win Articulate Fly swag and be entered into a drawing for prizes from Ellis at the end of the season. Ellis also shares his excitement for the upcoming musky fishing season and the start of gun season in Tennessee, where he's preparing to collect bucktails for fly tying.
