Warming Up Fast


The weather has turned to spring very quickly this week, with valley temps in the mid 50's. It is spring skiing conditions from the top of the tram all the way down to the valley. This should get area fish really moving now! Leaving work tonight, I crossed the Wilson bridge on the Snake and saw a couple of boats pulling out. This is a great time of year to float when we get nice weather like this. Local guiding legend Paul Bruun writes a weekly column in our local paper, and treated us this week to a great story about This Is Fly, the online fly-fishing magazine that is all the rage. Check the article out at http://www.jhnewsandguide.com/article.php?art_id=4368&pid=news. Also, my buddy Chris Jensen has just started a blog out of the Lodge at Palisades Creek on the South Fork, it looks pretty good! Check it out at http://tlapc.wordpress.com/ for the latest news from the South Fork of the Snake. Here is a shot of a typical South Fork cutthroat taken last fall...what a beauty.
