Sun Valley Spring Fishing
While opening day of fishing in Idaho is 12 days away, we are still fishing here with the entire Big Lost River watershed open. Trail Creek Summit opened on May 1st and the water level on the Lower Big Lost is still at a very fishable level of 91 cfs. Look for the flow to drastically increase on this piece of water sometime around Memorial Weekend. The cooler days have been far better with decent Baetis and nymphing using small zebra midges, pheasant tails, rainbow warriors, etc.
