To know if this is the best trip for you, let’s start by trying to talk you out of going. I know that sounds strange, but chasing Steelhead in the month of February in Idaho is a challenging pursuit. You need to be willing to be coached-up on new techniques, and be about the hunt not just the reward.
The joy you get from hooking into these fish is similar to what I experience chasing after Permit on the fly. The way we go after these fish gives us the best opportunity, while we also mix in swinging more productive stretches. You will be on waters that are home to the largest strain of steelhead in the world, and you have an opportunity here to play with a 20 lb. Steely. That is just silly! If you want to know what this trip means to people, just look at the smiles on our clients faces’ in the slide show at the bottom of the page.

Itinerary

We recommend that you book at least three river days with us to aid in the learning process of this adventure, but if you only have one then lets get after it. We have clients catch fish on their first day as the Steelhead gods seem to have a sense of humor. However, to maximize your opportunities with these amazing fish, we need to put in the time. We fish two in a boat so grab a friend and share this memory together. When we hook into one of these beasts, it can turn into an all hands on deck situation, so the more hands the better.
