Idaho Fish Report

Teton River

This river has been fluctuating a bit due to snowmelt, so some days it is murky while on cooler days it is clear. Not much for dry fly fishing yet, and the water is very cold. The best fishing is going to be in the afternoon hours. With the water cold, the fish will hold in the deep slow runs rather than the faster riffles. Try swinging a leech using a size 10-12 olive balance leech, or just use size 12 standard wooly bugger in black or olive. You can also do well with egg patterns and midge nymphs. I love using a size 16 Olive Bullet Quill.
