Idaho Fish Report

Fishing is difficult and a bit slow as the water level has dropped and the weeds have increased. Most of the trout are in the canyon in the layer between the deep cold water and the shallower warmer water with more oxygen. Trollers should go very slowly. Try cowbells tipped with a worm, spinners or rapala type lures. For bass, rubber gear in either very dark or very bright colors is the ticket as well as crank baits. Trout and bass have been mostly active in the early morning or late evening. Fly rodders should try damsel patterns, mayflies, leech and large nymph patterns. Along the shorelines with vegetation, terrestrials may be worth a try if the other flies aren't producing.
