Happy Post-4th of July! We hope you had a safe and fun weekend. We are in summer mode around here now: temps are up, water levels are up, fire danger is up, and so on… Fishing remains decent to good depending on where your angling adventures are taking you; I’ll get into some details below.…

Hi all! Been a hot minute since we jumped online and updated things for you. It’s been very busy around here since the opener on June 15th. We had a great annual opener party and an excellent turnout in partnership with Friends of Harriman. Fishing around these parts has been decent to good depending on…

Hello all. Happy August! You know what that means… it’s about time for me to head back to the classroom, so this will be my last report for the season. Captain Lanning will take over, I’m sure. It’s been a very bittersweet summer for me; fun as always, but I’m quite concerned about the quality…

A little better this week! Good news… flows from IP Reservoir have come down. Bad news… the reservoir is sitting at 50% — it could be a long winter of low flows. In comparison, on this date last year IP Reservoir was at 89,573 acre feet; today’s reading is 69,486 acre feet. Releases are rolling around 1000 cfs and word on the street is…

I’ve spent a fair amount of time walking the Ranch, sitting out here behind the shop, and driving Wood Road to Millionaires to The Box…

Greetings all! Sorry for the delay on a new report; been pretty busy around these parts. We had a stellar Ranch Opener Party: great music, excellent company, and the whole hog. Fishing was pretty darn good for the opener as well. Unfortunately, things have slowed down a bit with the bump in flows early this…

BY JOHN CAMPBELL Welp, school is quickly approaching, and it’s about time for me to head back to the classroom. It’s always a bittersweet feeling, but I’m not going too far and am looking forward to seeing the kids. This will most likely be my last report for the summer, but I’m sure Todd will…

TroutHunter Fishing Report 8/1/24 The big news this week is a reduction in flows out of IP Reservoir. We are currently running at 1050 cfs out of the dam this morning with a slight bump from yesterday’s release of 900. Hopefully things will stand pat for a bit with minimal to moderate adjustments in the…
