Good Times!


August has been good to us! Flows on Grey Reef are currently holding steady at 1,500cfs and the river is in awesome shape. We are consistently seeing pods of fish up on tricos in the morning and even managing a few on hoppers in the afternoon. If the dry fly thing is not your thing, nymphing is good and there are plenty of fish willing to chase a streamer. We really do love this time of year! We do expect Grey Reef to drop to winter flows(500cfs) in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out for that.

If you are planning on heading this way make sure to buy your license before you arrive.
