Fish Report for 2-10-2023

Back on the drop but will need at least another week before it’s in fishable shape

2-10-2023
Kenny Priest

The main stem was fishable over the weekend, but flows were still really high. A few boats ventured out Friday, but it was the same story — not many fish around. The river blew out Sunday with flows peaking at 21,000 cfs Monday morning. It’s now back on the drop but will need at least another week before it’s in fishable shape.
