South Fork Fishing

My good friend Cliff was kind enough to take Jon and I down the South Fork of the Snake River for a little fishing. Cliff is a professional guide for an outfitter in the upper valley and for some reason volunteered to take us down the river on his day off. We managed several strikes of some big fish. I caught zero fish, Jon caught one big (17-18") rainbow cutthroat hybrid and a smaller cutthroat. Cliff, after seeing us miss strike after strike threw out a streamer and landed a fat 18" brown trout on his first cast. I learned that I have a lot to learn.

Biggest fish I have ever caught on a dry fly! I was as giddy as a little school girl.

Darren had more near misses and big fish on his line.
