Notes

USGS 13192200 SF BOISE RIVER AT NEAL BRIDGE NR ARROWROCK DAM ID
Gave it a shot since MF still down.
Fished exclusively nymphs - medium rubber leg stone with a #18 dropper (hare's ear, pheasant tail, misc). Had 5 total, brought three in. Had a BIG fish right off (18"+) but got off after a long fight - probably on the #20 dropper. Lost another one (~14"+) with the same story. The one I did bring in was on the stone. Caught the 2 smaller ones on the small dry extended body midge after seeing them hit the top.
Fish hung in the deep, slower areas tho that's where I focused. Did get 2 hits on collared brown wolley buggers but no hook-ups.
