Browns Spawning on the Owhyee

Let's start with it spawning season for the browns. So if you don't know what redds are stay out of the riffles. If you do use commen sense and let the fish flirt.

Bwo's and midges are the surface game. Make sure you have a good selection of emergers, cripples, and adult patterns. You can nymph hairsears, pheasant tails, caddis, and zebra midges. Typically size 16-22.

This river is one of my favorite rivers to throw streamer. I like double bunnies and clouser minnows. You will catch your best fish on streamers. I know you can take large fish on the owyhee river on dries, but you will catch even bigger ones with streamer.
