June 30 2 day to launch, the Sawtooth Mountain by dawns light, it was great to open your door of the motel and see this.

Before we drove up to the launch site we stopped to fish Valley Creek, out side of Stanley, Id. Had a good time with some nice size rainbows and a few cutthroats. I did see some big fish hold in this creek, but had no luck getting them to hit.

Dagger Fall above the launch site, earlier that day someone had spotted Salmon or Steelhead trying to jump the falls. If you look in the lower right corner of the picture you can see part of the fish ladder. I got to spend a hour or so fishing above the falls that evening, I could not keep the small rainbows from attacking my fly. Most of the fish were in the slower water along the edges.

I found a few of these along the shore and saw a number of stone flies on the wing.

Launch site at sunset. If you look closely, just past the ramp there is a number of wooden drift boats.


A nice cut during the evening hatch. He took a yellow caddis size 14, he was holding on a edge of the really fast water.
