Southeast Idaho Fishing Report

In-Depth Fishing Report for The Snake River, Henry's Fork, South Fork of the Snake, Portneuf River as well as surrounding lakes and still waters of Southeast Idaho

Date 5/10/2024

Snake Below American Falls Reservoir:

flows out of the dam are sitting around 15000CFS and the reservoir is sitting at 99%. Bass fishing continues to get better especially with this warm up. Deep nymph rigs on the upper stretches using balanced leeches, caddis, and larger attractor nymphs are still picking up some nice trout.

South Fork Snake River : Flows out of the dam are sitting around 11200CFS and the reservoir is at 68%. Flows are big but the river is fishing well. Nymph fishing is still the name of the game. Rubber legs, worms, beatis, and euro style nymphs have been the ticket. 

Henrys Fork: Mothers day caddis are in full swing along with some great blue wing fishing. Stonefly nymphs should start in the masses any day if they haven't already.

Portneuf: River is still up but starting to slowly drop. Water is very dirty but fish the edges with streamers for a shot at some nice early season browns. 

Still waters & Lakes: Still water fishing has been really good. Most of them are full to the rim and have some great hold over fish cruising around. Daniels, Springfield, and treasureton are some worth checking out
