This river is open year-round to fishing, but ideal conditions usually begin after snowmelt recedes in late June. About 2,200 hatchery trout are being released this week in multiple locations. Most trout can be found from Marion Forks down to the mouth and are fairly well distributed. Flies and spinners work best, but bait is allowed. There are numerous pullouts along the highway, as well as several camp and recreation sites.
The river is very high at the moment, thanks to a rainy weekend and continued snowmelt. Flows should improve by week’s end.
Anglers may keep up to five trout per day. Remember, this section of river is closed to salmon fishing.
