If you pack smart and plan accordingly you are sure to leave with a lifetime of memories. Folks this is going to be 5 days fly fishing one of the most remote drainages in the lower 48.
This is truly the fantasy land most outdoorsman only see in dreams. The landscapes taken out of a Tolken tale will make you fell small at every step and the raw elements will remind you how insignificant you truly are. Even though the surroundings are sure to take the breath away, each step ought to be taken with the utmost care. Always keep you gaze keen on the horizon because no matter how vast, there is a good chance you are not alone.
In a lot of ways, this set of challenges may seem insurmountable for the adventurous angler..
But there is good reason fellowships continue to make the pilgrimage to these wild lands. Thriving native fish still swim strong all throughout these emerald waters. Despite the growing list of obstacles brought on by modernity, relics of yesteryear can still be found at the top of these skeleton systems. Apex predators mix with seasonal residents to give a fleeting glimpse of much wilder times in the not so distant past.

I used to be like you guys, total gonzo fly fishing nut, but now I’m 70 with lots of medical problems, and am unable to wade at all. I enjoyed your video. At the end of my fly fishing career I only fished for big Salmon and Steelhead, seeking fish that went deep into the backing or took it all and broke me off heading back to the ocean. The World’s best steelhead were on the Dean River in BC. Unfortunately the fishing has declined severely. Keep up your adventures.

Imparting with wisdom gained and my younger self and note to self and others - You think, you have time, but you don't. Time is like a river, you can never touch the same flow twice. Get out there and get on to the getting and get the doing done, live that dream and enjoy the smell of fish fingers, bruised ankles and knees. You may be a little sore, however you made memories and have a great story to share about that adventure on. Happy Hiking and Recon Release & Remember.

This is fascinating. Summer steelhead spawn in the fall, but, 'bows' spawn in the spring? Huh, they say that a hallmark of domestication is that reproduction occurs year-round, but this place is wild. Bull trout, brook trout, whitefish, angler turned cryptozoologist, because of fascination and a map. I just opened Cutthroat; Native Trout of the West, by Trotter, total mystery with plenty of, "Something left over from the Pleistocene, and earlier." There was a neat project they did removing dams on the Elwha, not long ago. That charcoal should be around for a while, it resists decomposition by decomposers - a mark left in the soil that is essentially left forever, unless it is taken out by a more rigorous fire sometime later. Perhaps the roasted remains in a "desolated" watershed is how Earth ties-up carbon originally from an atmospheric carbon dioxide; ancient wildfires allow both the angler and fish a steady source of life-sustaining breath? The roasted forest around here always makes me think, what's that shadow, a bear? You and Sam toasted a home-brew (4:14), cheers! I'd be seriously off-point the whole time; beer and bear = me and nervous.

Awesome video!!! As a mexican who grew up fishing for rainbow trout in Central Mexico. And right after migrating to the USA staring learning fly fishing and going on road trips around the west! I remember my first time traveling to eastern Sierra in California for Golden trout then up to Oregon and Washington for steelhead and later going to Montana and Idaho for westlope Cutthroat. But driving throughout Central Idaho and seeing these Chinook salmon spawning at the head waters of the Salmon River is something just mind blowing. Especially if you have driven from the coast all the way to the Sawtooth mountains. You just can't but admire these beautiful anodromuos fish!

Great video. I just thought I might add a little info. From the Wild Salmon Center's research in Kamchatka, they've determined a healthy (rainbow) trout river, that can lead to the ocean, will have some trout that go out and become steelhead, and some will stay resident rainbows. There will be a healthy, genetic diversity. I can assure you 100% that your large trout was a large, resident rainbow. First, check the spots that are all over the fish. In general, an steelhead will have spots only above the lateral line, with some exceptions (central California valley steelhead). Second, the size. To make the trip from Idaho, across 7 dams, and back to Idaho the adult fish must be large, about 7 pounds and above. This just makes sense. There are some rivers (Klamath, Trinity, Rogue), where there are a prevalent number of "half-pounder" steelhead of the 14" to 22" size, and some of these are sexually mature. But This is not the case for any steelhead that would have to make a 900 mile return trip to the ocean. Hope this helps. Thanks again for a great video!

In 1965 this Chicago kid drove to Idaho on summer break to my summer job with the Forest Service as a surveyor. Our station was on the North Fork of the Clearwater. A novice fly fisher at that time, I honed my skills on the native cutthroat. Then in 1990 I took a trip with my wife and we went back to our old station. The cabin was long gone, but the trout were still there and willing to take a fly.

@@FLYALLSZN You should grab an 8 weight and go to Florida for a trip/video. Southwest gulf coast: snook, tarpon, redfish. Would be awesome to see some saltwater adventures! Keep it up, really enjoy your videos.

In the Northwest a rainbow trout 20” or longer is considered a steelhead in water that supports steelhead migration.

Any rainbow 20" and up are considered steelhead in any water that naturally contains steelhead in ID.

Awesome video! Thank you. I currently live is Massachusetts but grew up in central Idaho. That video took me back home and put a smile on my face. Beautiful area, incredible river and fish. Very well done! Just a point of clarification, those little rainbows are not yet steelhead smolts. The smoltification process includes physiological and morphological changes necessary for these young fish to survive in the ocean. The process occurs in out-migrating juveniles in the spring as they start migrating toward the ocean. Smolts look much different than their resident counterparts. The little rainbows you were catching may indeed migrate to the ocean as outgoing steelhead smolts some day but some of them may stay as resident fluvial rainbows. Either way, calling them a rainbow is absolutely correct, since that is what they are at any life stage. Again, awesome video! Well done!

Nice video, and quite entertaining. Bull trout spawn in early fall, and have usually left the main stem for the tribs by late August. That probably explains why you only found small bulls.
