Recent Fishing Reports for Idaho. 7/1

FISHING: Fair
Big Lost River & Tributaries
The Copper Basin area is fishing o.k. although heavier flows are making the wading extremely tough in some areas. Anglers on the East Fork of the Lost and on the main Lost above the dam need to use extreme caution when wading, a wading belt is mandatory at these flows. General attractors are working fine throughout the up river system. If there is a soft spot in the current, there is going to be a fish. Large Baetis and Green Drakes seem to be the main bug of choice right now, but anglers that fish giant Salmon fly patterns are going to catch the most and the biggest fish. It is a common tactic on these waters to let the fish flash at the big flies and then switch to a Green Drake and tempt the same fish back with it. The Lost River below the dam is still pumping right along (440 cfs - 470 cfs), although it is fishable. Again wade with extreme caution here. Weighted nymphs fished through heads of riffles and pools will provide plenty of action
