Just a quick update today…
The fishing last week was great, the fish are well rested and ready to snap when the weather permits us to hit the river. This weeks big freeze will give the fish a much needed rest after we hammered them pretty hard. Look for the fishing to be great again once we get through this arctic blast.
I still have openings for this spring for anyone looking to get on the water. I’m hoping that we see the size of the spring fish similar to those that we saw last fall.
Half day trips thru March 10— $200 for 1-2 anglers
Well….
As you can se we have made it out several times in the last week, we found the fishing to be very good in some areas…and lesser fish in some very prime winter spots.
We landed some really nice winter males pushing into the high teens. All of the fish seem to be winter holdovers, but a few fresher females were landed.
I have the cure for cabin fever for those that are infected and need to shake the winter blues…Your steelhead are waiting.
Floatfishing with eggs…is pretty much the only way to go when its this cold out.
Yuck!!
Ok Im pretty sure everyone is with me on this one….its time for old man winter to kick the bucket and move on…Its very rare for me to say I’m ready for spring, because I enjoy winter steelheading so much, but enough is enough…its time to move on and spring cant come too soon.
The truth is I think I’m on my longest fishless streak in forever….I just have not felt like hitting the water with temps in the single digits and wind chills below zero!
Im sure the fishing will be great as soon as I get back to the river,the fish are well rested and should be pretty dumb again, with very little food in the rivers this time of year, our offerings should look very tempting.
So…look for a warm up, get your dates booked and lets fish!!!
Its time to get those warm spring guide trips locked in as well.
