Remarkable Spey fishing and Fly fishing for Steelhead can be had during
the months of September and October. The water conditions
make this time of year very conducive for swinging flies to
these majestic creatures.
~ Spey Rates ~
Once the water temperature starts to drop and the water level
raises the fish are more apt to take hardware and bait.
Side-drifting, bobber and jig/bait and back-trolling
plugs are the preferred methods to take these hard fighting fish
during the winter months.
~ Gear Rates ~
