King salmon season is in full swing, I finished up on the big lake about a week ago and have been on the river a few days since then. The fishing has been pretty typical for fall river run Kings. We have been casting hardware and drifting skein under floats for these early run kings. The fish are here and many are running very large. The river has been pretty busy as every year it seems more people are switching to actually catching these fish rather than the snagging that was so hard to break people of.
If you are looking to have a fun day on the water and learn how to actually catch fall run salmon, please give us a call.
On another note: We will no longer be offering guided flyfishing trips for salmon, I feel that there are better, more sporting more ethical ways to enjoy these awesome valuable fish. These fish will smash the correct offerings and are very catchable. Sure the hookup numbers are much lower, but the bites that you get are very memorable and the fight is awesome.
Fall steelhead dates are filling in, if you are interested in locking in a day or two with us please give us a call asap.
