Rainbow Trout Fishing Reports

Fishing has been absolutely wonderful. Even a few big girls were brought to he net this week!!! Almost every fly is starting to hatch. March browns have been coming off, blue wing olives, Caddis and of course midges.

Around 40 to the net and that many missed.

1 of many. Around 40 to the net and that many missed.

Fishing around the Olympic Peninsula has been steady as water conditions have been stable most of February and early March. Chilly mornings and blue skies make for great steelheading

Weather: 30 to 60+ degrees Fishing on the Salmon River is awesome and the water is up. Lake Ontario Brown Trout are biting very well when the lake conditions permit us to get out. All the fishing is good and will continue to all spring.

Fishing is good. We’re catching, and releasing rainbows in the 2-4 lb class on nymphs. The flows are clear and cold water downstream of Canyon Lake Dam. In the trophy trout section.

Fishing this week has been good. Lots of bigger fish are finally making appearance!!! When it comes to big fish you just never know if they want a midge or a nice tied streamer!!!

Great if you can brave the cold!

We've had a mild winter so far, so our streams have remained open and fishing has been good! We have a mix of new and older fish throughout all the river systems. The weather forecast is calling for more mild temps so fishing should remain good and will just get better moving into March and April.

Fishing has slowed down this week after all the fishing that was done over the holidays. It should pick back up next week for sure! It's streamer time so don't be afraid to throw some while you're here. If not think small like size 22 and 24 midges , small hairs ear in size 18 and small black stones size 14.

Big girl this morning

Winter time think small. Size 22 zebra midge was the ticket this day. Fish are plentiful but you have got to use small flies this time of year. San Juan worm has been working with a midge on the back of it. Come fish with me!!!

The fishing is fabulous, the weather has been temperate, and the big fish have been biting!

I hope all is well and you are enjoying the Season! Growing up in the Valley and it's summer heat, I find the older I get the more I enjoy the colder months, you can always dress for the cold but when it's super hot it's just that...

A few things make it special also would be small flies, (Tiny actually), light tippets and super smart fish, one of the best places to hone nymphing skills that will serve you well anywhere in the world! I learned my techniques there, along with the other waters mentioned, and developed certain presentations for certain runs, like different shots in Golf for different lies and holes( For you Golfers)....

Well the Kings Canyon in the Sequoia National Forest is now closed for the season! It was a great year in there and looking forward to seeing it again next April. If you want to book a trip for next season let me now so we can get some dates for you. It's a beautiful place with lots of wild fish and beautiful views.

I am now focusing on the lower Kings River below Pine Flat and above it. A tail water fishery below the dam and a wild freestone river above it with some really nice fishing. Winter is a great time to fish the lower. Looking forward to taking people out and enjoying some great flyfishing!

Fishing has been very good. The rain cooled off the river to a nice 52 degrees. Perfect for trout fishing. This time of year there isn't much in the way of hatches however, midges are always present. Use a Manhattan midge in black of a miracle midge for the best action. Small nymphs such as 20 hair ear or pheasant tail. All of these flies have been working well.

Morning bite has been very good, as you can see by the photos! Been cold in the morning and afternoon has been pleasant. Fish eating eggs, midges and softhackles. October Caddis have been coming off along with Blue Wing Olives on cloudy days. Come fish with me the weather has been fantastic!!!

So far October has been great!!! Water is starting to cool off greatly. The weather has been chilly in the early morning and afternoon has been in the 80's. It will not be long before the absolute perfect time to fish this river!!! Clouds are starting to move in thank God! That means blue wing olives should start again soon. Caddis are still coming off for all you dry fly guys. Nothing like a take on the surface! Midges are still king this time of year nymphs are small, real small like 24's. Softhackle flies are still working size 16 and smaller, along with the Caddis pupa fly. Tight lines my friends!!!
