Idaho Fish Report

Lower Williamson River Updates

Yellow perch fishing is excellent below and above Modoc Point Rd. bridge. Look for deep pools and the aquatic vegetation edges.

Please remember no bait, no treble hooks and catch-and-release for redband trout.

Small pheasant tail, copper johns or prince nymphs fished on clear intermediate fly lines with fluorocarbon leaders can be effective. October caddis and mahogany dun mayflies are hatching. Matching these hatches will improve your catch rates.

Redband trout have moved into the area above Chiloquin. This section has more brown trout as well. Brown trout can be targeted above and below Spring Creek.

Large streamers and leech patterns are more effective lower in the river towards the mouth. Check Williamson River Flows.
