River flow is slightly higher than average for this time of year:  4530 cfs at Shelly, where 3840 cfs is normal flow there.   Nevertheless this begins the time to present streamers for browns beginning to migrate and foraging rainbows. Doing so via boating on this river is more effective than walk-in wade fishing.  You will likely encounter fewer boats than on the South Fork or on the lower Henry’s Fork. Low light conditions will be best for this, meaning first light or evening. Stormy conditions will be another good time, if we ever have some storms!
