2010 River Reports

The Kootenai River:

9/1/10 - Hoppers are here but the weather pattern has turned cool. Sunny days will have them active. The river is still at 7k cfs and has been on again off again. Some days great, others not so. Not too many other bugs to speak of at the moment but this cooler fall like weather may change that any day now. Sept should pick up fishing in earnest and some of the best fishing of the year is just ahead. Give us a call or send off an email if we can help.

Lake Creek, Bull River, Yaak River & small streams:

9/1/10 - Summer early fall conditions. Low and clear. Think like a heron. If you're not stalking fish you won't be seeing too many. But all the small streams are in great shape other wise. It's a walk wade or thing now and for the rest of the year. Look for fall spawners

Cabinet Mountain Lakes:

9/1/10 - Are in great shape. Take a hike and see some water that no one else has for a while. There are literally dozens of un touched lakes up there. Get out and explore!

Hatch Chart, Flies, and area bug information can be found here.
