Daily Report

We would like to wish everyone a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. The shop and motel will be closed on Thanksgiving Day and will reopen on Friday at 7:00AM. Be sure to check the weather, we have lake effect snow in the forecast for the upcoming weekend. The upper and lower end of the river continues to get the most anglers on a daily basis. If your willing to walk and looking to avoid other anglers, the mid section of river would be a good choice. With the low water conditions the fish have been holding in and around the deeper holes and larger runs. For those anglers who are fly fishing, dead drifitng with nymphs, indicator fishing with egg patterns or swinging small streamers with sink tips have all produced results. For those anglers who are bottom bouncing or float fishing, egg sacs and beads have produced the best reults. Depending on the day anglers have been getting into fish in the Upper & Lower Fly Fishing Zones, Schoolhouse area, Trestle Pool area, Pineville area, Sportsman Pool area, Staircase/Longbridge, Black Hole and the DSR.
