Notes
USGS 13139510 BIG WOOD RIVER AT HAILEY ID TOTAL FLOW
Flows were considerably slower this high up the Wood (~13 miles from town).
Went with Lisa. Went by Silver Creek Outfitters for advise on spot and flies.
Stream was small and water was low this late in the year. Had to go high d/t the fires and recent rain really clouded the water.
The fish we caught were in isolated runs, mostly along the banks. Surprising large fish for such shallow water.
Didn't fish long d/t time constraints (conference).
