The best all around sleeper month? MAY. Yep, you heard it here first. MAY is about half of our staff and half of our guides favorite month. Just saying.’

November is booking well. The weather adn the water temps are allowing a long and fabulous late fall. How late will your fall go? Opening day of hunting season today adn the traffic here on the river is still strong. Shot your buck, then  cast at rising brown trout. Finish at Izaak’s for killer smoked Ribs, then a  nightcap at Joe’s Bar. Ohh, a dream day!
