Owyhee River Fishing Report
Fishing has been getting more and more consistent as we move further into the 50’s and 60’s for our daytime highs. The question on everyone’s mind “are the skwala’s out?” and the answer is yes! We have had excellent reports on catching fish on top with adult skwala patterns. Beyond that, midge patterns and baetis (BWO) patterns are working great as well. Nymphing and streamers continue to be consistently picking up some beautiful brown trout and some large healthy rainbows.
