St. Joe River Outing

Post by Lotech Joe » Mon Aug 24, 2009 7:56 pm

This Friday I'll be heading out for the St. Joe River in Northern Idaho for a 3 day weekend. Hopefully I'll find some more hungry cutthroat trout.

Wish me luck.

Looks like a great place to be even if they aren't biting. Good luck out there Joe!

Lol. I've fished the exact run where the first pic was taken. Didn't catch anything in it however.......... When I fished the stream in '08, I caught probably 20 fish, alot of them were small (like 6-8"). The deeper pools is where the bigger fish (16"-18") were holding. I used mainly Royal patterns the whole day. The 'Throats aren't very selective in the Joe. Keep in mind, I fished above the town of Avery. And from what I;ve heard, it's better to fish below Avery, because there's more and larger fish.
