I will try and post pictures when I get them. If you get a chance before it closes- get up there. Phenomenal fishing for large cutthroats. I did very well with a fly rod but there were some guys near me in a boat fishing worms that probably caught at least 40 fish in the 3 hours I was near them. I saw multiple times that they had 3 fish on at once. It was cold- 17 degrees at 8 am . Calm on Friday and 30 mph winds on Sat. But well worth the time.

Worms are the trick, eh? Is that even legal there? Harvest? I've tried to get some information on it (you'd think it would be everywhere online), but Idaho has a ton of different pamphlets and brochures for specific areas and whatnot, it seems.

I'm glad you did well. I've never fished it, but if harvest is legal, I might be interested in going someday. Fighting a giant hybrid might be enough bait to get me there anyway.

Thanks for the report.

I've fished it a few times - usually right after the opener. Sounds like it's much better this time of year.

Catching some of those hybrids is a kick. They look more like footballs than fish. :nod:
