Low Flow and/or High
Temperature Waters :( In general, depending on species, once
temperatures rise above the mid-60s F., trout can start feeling the
adverse effects of high temperatures.
Feeding will be
reduced.
Sustained swimming becomes more laborious.
The ability to compete with other species for
common food sources is reduced once temperatures approach the 70s.
Higher temperatures can affect equilibrium.
Lethal
temperatures, depending on species, range from 74 F to 79 F. However,
it's possible for trout to survive at these temperatures if they
locate cool thermal refuges, or if these high temperatures are
moderated by drops in temperature at night. There are no hard
and fast criteria that definitely determine when it's okay to fish and
when it's not. But anglers should be extra-cautious handling trout
when water temperatures reach the mid 60s. It's wise to consider
avoiding waters where temperatures reach 70 F. or more each day during
a sustained period. Watch fish behavior after you release them. If
they're sluggish or seem slower to recover than usual, they could be
stressed from the effects of high temperatures.
Diamond D Ranch The
Diamond D Ranch has become our home away from home. As mid summer
approaches Loon Creek has been fishing very well, although the stone
flies are over, big attractor dry flies seem to fit the bill.
There are some really nice bull trout in this stream as well as
on the private lake on the ranch. Much to our amazement occasionally
the bull trout will chase the small rainbows we catch. In
addition to lodging at the ranch we are offering 3-4 day pack trips
six to twelve miles down Loon Creek for the wilderness fly fishing
experience of a lifetime. The Cutthroat fishing this
far in is phenomenal!!!

Remember...Teach a child to fish &
change his life forever!!! Grande Ronde Steelhead Clinic
& BBQ
Fall and Winter were very good to us here at Dreams on the Fly...Our
first annual Steelhead Clinic & BBQ was a huge success, so
much so we have people booking for the upcoming clinic on September
24th, 2005. Our guests received 5 hours of steelhead fly fishing
instruction, knots and leaders, fly line types, and so much more. We
spent 3 hours in the water, actually practicing what we taught. Then
we disbursed, with some heading home and others like Terry (below)
fishing and using the techniques we taught. The cost of the clinic is
$50.00 and includes all you can eat riverside BBQ. Web
Specials <http://www.dreamsonthefly.com/webspecials.html>
In addition to the 2nd Annual Steelhead Clinic and BBQ, we
are offering a 2-day intensive Spey Rod Steelhead Fishing
Clinic. This will consist of our 2 day Spey Class and will
be held September 10th & 11th, 2005 on the Grande Ronde River.
This two day class will be held on the water. Our goal is to put you
on every type of steelhead water you will encounter. We will teach you
how to fish these water types with an emphasis on casting,
presentation and line control. We will instruct and introduce you to
the Snap-T, Roll cast, Double Spey, Single Spey and the Perry Poke.
These basic spey casts will give you the fundamentals to catch fish on
any steelhead river. We will cover different types of lines, rods,
reels, and terminal tackle. Keep in mind that you will be casting
flies and the opportunity to catch one of these beautiful, acrobatic
fish is a real possibility. So be sure to mark your calendars for
September 10-11 on the Grande
Ronde.Cost:
2 day class & lunch only $165.00 per person 2 day class (1
day room and board, Breakfast & Lunch the 2nd day) $235.00 per
person
