Made it out on the river today and came back empty handed. With the rivers fluctuating flow so often and so rapidly they really don't produce any action. Although it was good to get out of the house today since its been awhile. I may have not caught anything on the rod but my eyes caught a few Bald Eagles hunting with no luck as well. I started out using a gold stone for some weight with a small 18-22 copper john as a trailer then moved on to some streamers. I was sure I would at least pull a white fish or two but not even that. I am hoping to get out more before the rivers freeze up in the next month month and a half. We just hired a new contractor/employee at QEP and come to find out he loves to tie flies and fly fish as well. So I am looking forward to get out on the water later in the month with him. I hope to catch something if we do make it out. As far as the steelhead run goes, there really isn't a great report to intrigue me on heading to Idaho for the fall run yet this year. So perhaps I will have skip the fall run and just hit the spring run.
Till next time, rip some lips!
