I have never fished this place before. I understand there is a walkout
place near the Cliff Deweler Lodge and accomodations there aren't too
bad. Planning on going in November. Anyone been there in Nov and how
is the wade area. I understand its all bows and sounds like mostly
nymphs. Anyone got thoughts or been there?

Found this excerpt:
Lee's Ferry water is usually gin-clear, so it's a good idea to avoid
bright fly lines that can spook fish. A reel with a smooth drag is
needed for slowing down the river's hot rainbows.

The best nymphing setup is a yarn strike indicator tied several inches
below where your fly line attaches to your leader; micro-split-shot
(the amount determined by the depth and current of the water you're
fishing) attached several feet beneath the indicator at the knot
connecting the leader to the tippet; a large fly (#14-#16 orange or
pink scud) tied to the tippet 12 to 18 inches beneath the split-shot;
and a smaller "dropper" fly (#20 bead-head midge larva) connected by
another strand of tippet tied to the eye of the first fly and tied off
12 to 18 inches below.

Found some good info on this site (where I got above quote)...

Have not fished right there but after looking at it I might!
