South Central Idaho
Silver Creek is in prime dry fly shape with stable flows, cool water, and excellent hopper activity. Focus on morning and evening windows when heat moderates.
North-Central Idaho
Dropping flows and improving clarity are making sight-fishing for carp and smallmouth bass solid on the Snake right now.
Upper Snake / Eastern Idaho
Flows have dropped to 693 cfs, improving wading. Golden Stones and Gray Drakes are active in Box Canyon, while the middle Ranch and lower sections offer solid fishing with multiple mayflies and terrestrial opportunities.
Upper Snake / Eastern Idaho
August fishing on the Henrys Fork rewards early starts. Stable, moderate flows and low-70s water temps create solid conditions if you time your approach. Focus on cooler water near springs and shaded runs; small dries work well in the morning and evening hours.
Upper Snake / Eastern Idaho
The Henrys Fork's lower section is fishing well with stable flows around 1300 cfs. Hoppers and Chubbies are producing.
Panhandle
Flows have dropped to 358 cfs at Calder, making shallow sections trickier to navigate. Fish early and late when water temps in the mid-70s won't slow the cutthroat.
Upper Snake / Eastern Idaho
Flows are stable and normal at 1,630 CFS. Fish early before warm afternoon temperatures close the window and focus on grasshoppers and streamers as hatch activity has diminished.
Upper Snake / Eastern Idaho
Mutant stones are emerging on the South Fork with flows holding steady around 5,950 cfs. Early and late windows offer the best action for stone patterns.
Upper Snake / Eastern Idaho
The Henrys Fork is productive but winding down, with flows now manageable for wading. Caddis, PMD, and terrestrials dominate; seek cleaner water in select areas.
