We have received some good fishing reports from the South Fork of the Snake. The boat ramps are still covered in snow, deep in some places, so wading is your best option.  If you would like to float, please give us a call (800) 444-4933 for current boat ramp conditions.  Until it warms up, you'll need a four wheel drive vehicle to access  the boat ramps.  The flow has been around 980 cfs so it is a little skinny in spots  but you can still float certain sections.  Remember, Cottonwood Road is still closed to protect wintering big game.  The upper area of the river is the easiest to float right now and it also provides some of the best walk-in fishing.  Most fly fisherman are using a stone fly nymph with a copper john or zebra midge trailer.  As temperatures increase in the upcoming weeks, the boat ramps will become more accessible and fishing should continue to be good.

The lower Henry's Fork has been fishing well.  There is still quite a bit of snow around the Ashton area so wading is your best option.  The river is closed from Ashton to Vernon but good fishing may be found below Vernon Bridge.  A stone fly nymph with a small midge trailer will also work well on the Henry's Fork.   We should start seeing some blue winged olives as soon as warmer weather returns. 

Steelhead fishing on the Salmon is starting to pick up.  The ice blew out recently and the fish are on the move in the lower river. 

The Clearwater has been the bright spot this winter for steelheading with reports of fish up to 44 inches!

Fishing conditions are highly dependant upon the weather this time of year so please give us a call for up to date conditions.
