Snake River Continuing warm, sunny weather in the region (not that unusual for this time of year) is making for some very good, and comfortable fishing on the Snake River.  Blue-winged olives are out just about everyday.  You will also see intermittent emergences of October caddis on just about every reach of river.  Cooler and wetter days are also producing impressive hatches of mahogany duns.  Fishing is most productive in the morning on nymph rigs…

Snake River Note – flows from Jackson Lake Dam will be ramping down starting on September 29th.  Flows are tentatively scheduled to drop from 1,800cfs to 325cfs by next weekend.
