Owyhee River Fishing Report – 5/5/23

Flows are currently at 168 cfs, water is a little off color, and it sounds like flows may be increasing in the next week or so. Nymphing or using a dry dropper seems to be producing the most. For nymphs you can try using a voodoo midge #16 or #18, cardinal midge #16 or #18, holo-point jig in purple, or a split case pmd. Stripping leeches can also be productive in natural tan or black. There have been some midges, blue wings, and some caddis hatching. You can try using an Elk hair caddis #16 or #18.

Have fun and stop by TRR Outfitters in Eagle or call (208) 939-6065 to stock up on some flies, purchase your Owyhee fishing license, or book a guided fishing trip.
