Finally, everything in the region is in full runoff. The hot days and warm nights this past week have kicked things into high gear. The Green River is over 2,000 cfs, the New Fork River is over 3,200 cfs and the Snake is over 20,000 cfs in the Snake River Canyon. Needless to say, they are all very muddy and unfishable. The only game in town right now, as far as rivers go, is the South Fork of the Snake in Idaho. It is still at 11,900 cfs and is nymphing well. Dryfly should be just around the corner...come on stoneflies! We often hit the Big Hole River in Montana this time of year to catch the salmonflies, but the bugs are still not around. The river is running almost 5,000 cfs, which is very high for late June. Rachael and I took Charlotte to Jenny Lake yesterday for her first outing in a driftboat. She did very well! We managed to land a few lake trout in the process. Here's Charlotte (6 months old) on the water! More soon.
