It’s been a great fall. It’s not over yet! We are still running guide trips. Lots of smiling faces in the shop. Starting in November we’ll cut our fishing reports back to about once a month.

Fishing has been awesome. I can honestly say with confidence that you can pick any of our area waters and find great fishing. Don’t let the weather scare you. Some of our best fishing is when it’s raining or snowing.

Mid October is here and I am amazed how the fall fishing has been on all of area waters. I honestly don’t think it matters where you go. The hatches are consistent and good trout are rising. This time of the year rivals the best of May and June.

What an amazing time to be on the Henry’s Fork and our area rivers. The fall colors are on the way and seeing the first early snow is always exciting. If you have ever wondered what fall is like on the Henry’s Fork, this is the year to find out.

Fishing continues to be solid on our area rivers. I feel like fall is on its way. Elk are bugling and a few trees are starting to turn. Look for September and October to be a couple of amazing months on the water!

The natural flow of all of the waters in our system are slightly above normal and water temperatures have stayed cool. These factors have resulted in exceptional fishing for this time of the season.

August fishing is holding up much better than most folks have anticipated. I think the fishing will hold up through the month and should just get better as we slide into September.

We are on the back end of July. I think the fishing in our area remains very good. It’s been a great summer so far and I think our fishing will remain solid through the rest of the summer!

Mid July is here and things are really shaping up. Fishing is about as good as it gets. I have been seeing lots of smiling faces in the shop! All of our area reservoirs are at 100% of capacity, a great problem to have in the middle of July!

The Henrys Fork continues to fish very well. Golden Stones, pmds and green drakes just to name a few. The lower river is seeing a lot of boat traffic but the good news is that we have some other options.

Our weather hit a bump in the road with snow in Island Park. This short-lived system will only help the fishing. This should be an epic week with PMDs, caddisflies, Green Drakes, Gray Drakes, Golden Stones……

April has been a great month for East Idaho. We lost substantial snow pack in March and honestly things were not looking to good. April has more than made up for any snow pack lost in March. Things are looking up for the 2017 season. Mike Lawson’s…

April is upon us and winter has started to leave the Island Park area. In Last Chance the snow is going fast. Snow pack in the higher elevations is still very solid and I think we should have an amazing summer!

The Calendar says March 30th but looking out the window this morning it looks more like November 30th. The first part of March brought unseasonably warm weather to east Idaho and we lost snow pack. However things have turned around…

Warmer weather has come to East Idaho sooner than we would like. As a result we have some high water conditions to talk about. The good news is we have cooler weather forecast for this weekend and there’re still plenty of options.

The time has arrived to begin the 2017 season! Temps have come up to make a day on the water bearable. I would say about the only issue you will have is access to launch a drift boat.
