Conditions

Both upper and lower sections of the Salmon River look productive for early September. Expect mayflies, caddis, and hoppers through the week, with nymphing staying reliable for whitefish when surface activity slows. Normal flows and prime water temperatures should support solid dry fly opportunities alongside consistent subsurface work.
