The *South Fork of the Snake River* continues to fish exceptionally well with lots of opportunities to target rising fish on both Mayflies (Pink Alberts) and Stoneflies (Goldens and Yellow Sallies).

My buddy Matt Ryan fished it on Sunday said it nymphed very well. He used black rubber legs,San juan worm, and hares ears. He said they are in your typical spots for this time of year in the runs midway to the tailout. He did say some rainbows were caught in shallower water but that's standard for...

Flows are shooting up again and the water clarity is very poor. The river is running around 18,200 CFS and rising.Try finding some eddies and throwing streamers through them. Side channels can bring success as well. You can also try nymphing deep. Some hatches of BWO's have been coming off in the...
South Fork
Flow 1100 cfs The river is in it's prime for wade anglers. Streamers, egg patterns, and midges will catch fish. As with other areas it's a good time to go because the cold weather thins out the crowds and turns fishing on.
