Snake River We are now at winter flows on the Snake.  Expect micro caddis in the morning and intermittent BWOs throughout the day.  Mahoganies will join BWOs on cooler, wetter days, and this can offer the best surface action.  No matter the conditions, you will most likely see surface feeding no earlier than 11am (and even 12pm some days).  Dry-dropper and tandem dry rigs are the best way to go.  Target the inside turn of…

Snake River Autumn fishing is in full swing on the Snake with Hecuba and mahogany duns dominating the scene when conditions are right.  PMDs and micro caddis are around on warmer days and BWOs can intermix with Hecubas and mahogany duns on cooler, wetter days.  And expect to see the last of claassenia in the coming days. You may also be seeing the last of our terrestrials for the year, as well as tricos on…

Snake River Autumn is kicking into gear on the Snake with decent to good emergences of PMDs, Claassenia stones, Hecuba, and mahogany duns.  All reaches are fishing well and the action can be good from as early as 8am until 6pm or after depending on the water you target.  Focus primarily on seams and eddies in the morning hours and riffles, banks, and troughs in the afternoon.  Side channels can fish well all day long.…

Snake River Good, diverse, broad hatches at the moment of Hecuba, PMDs, Claassenia, caddis, and craneflies.
