The Big Lost below the dam has been the most consistent of all our fisheries.

The Big Wood River has started to slow down. There are still some hatches of BWO's on certain days so carry a selection of small patterns in sizes 18-22.

“Hibernation is a covert preparation for a more overt action.” – Ralph Ellison Some fair-weather anglers prefer to spend the cooler months in a dormant state, remaining inactive, indoors, and away from water.
