The Steelheading has been good lately and should continue through the end of the month!  The rivers have finally dropped into shape and fish are around.  It seems the extended high water has the fish spread out more than usual but swinging light sink tips and/or weighted flies has still been productive.  The Clearwater, Snake, Ronde, and Salmon are all options so keep your hooks sharp and take advantage of the milder weather!

With this mild winter the Joe has been fishing fairly well.  The lower river is still accessible so find the slow eddies and insides seams and you should find some cutties.  Nymph rigs and streamers will be the go-to unless you get small hatch on the warmer afternoons.  Hoping for winter to come but take advantage while you can!

Check Current Water Conditions

We floated the Spokane a few times in the high water and had success, but it has finally returned to normal flows so it should be easier to get around.  Nymphing and streamer fishing can be good this time of year if you’re willing to put in the work.  Keep covering water and you can get rewarded!
