Greetings,
 
Not unlike other areas of the country, Idaho has experienced a long hard winter this season.   Fishing conditions were challenging to say the least due to cold temperatures and deep snow.  This is extremely good news for watersheds since most reservoirs are already filling up quickly.  The higher elevations are still receiving plenty of snow so we should experience good fishing conditions throughout the summer. 
 
The staff at Hyde Drift Boats would like to wish you a great fishing season!
NEW - Hyde Power Drifter

Hyde Power Drifter
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Hyde Power Drifter combines the advantages of a power boat and drift boat.  The tunnel allows for a very shallow engine draft so you  can navigate shallow water with ease.  You can travel upstream and row it back to the boat ramp just as you would a drift boat.  The power drifter will accommodate a fuel efficient propeller or jet drive motor.
 
The New Hyde Power Drifter is a fishing machine!
 
Please call (800) 444-4933 to learn more.
NEW - Premier Series Skiff 
 
Premier Series Skiff
 

Premier Fly Fishing recognized a need in the drift boat industry for a lighter, stronger, more fishing friendly skiff.   Hyde Drift Boats and Premier Fly Fishing have teamed up to build a skiff that exceeds all these needs and more, and has introduced a new standard of comfort, safety and design.

 

The Premier X Series Skiff is available in 2 models, the X-9 and the X-13. Both models are constructed with the industry's most cutting edge materials ensuring maximum durability while maintaining a flexible bottom.
