Early Starts

Spokane River Fly Fishing

Early bird catches the trout

We've reached that time of the season where how early you get out of bed will dictate your catch success rates. Consistent daytime temps in the 90's and night temps in the 60's makes for tough conditions on most trout streams.

Morning water temps are always the best after a night of cooling off so maximizing your day on the water with an early start is often the key to success.

Remember, while evening time can be good fishing, check water temps. The rivers and lakes have been heating up all day so they are at their peak temps in the evening.

Once temps start getting in the 68-70 degree range time to wrap it up for the day and enjoy a cool drink.
