All of the mornings this week were very cool, with lows below 40 degrees all over the valley. Are we in for an early fall? I actually kind of hope not, since summer started so late this year. I do think that it helped the fishing a little bit on the Snake this week. The dry fly fishing has been easier on slightly smaller attractors in slower water the past few days. There are definitely fish on the faster banks, but don't ignore the subtle spots and "off" water. Getting out of the boat and working side channels is also very productive right now. I fished on Thursday with great friends Michael and Elizabeth Traverso of Healdsburg, California. If you are ever in Santa Rosa, California, don't miss Traverso's Market, a superb Italian market and wine shop. We had a fantastic day from Moose to Wilson. Here is Elizabeth with a nice 16" Snake River Cutthroat.
