If you're fly fishing the Snake River Valley, be prepared to
go to great lengths to find that certain "spot" where the big Browns, Rainbows, or
"Cuts" abide. It takes time and a thorough enjoyment of the sport to seek those
spots in many river shores, box canyons, and isolated streams.. but ...
"the
enjoyment of it all" pays off.

information and travel directions about such legendary trout streams as the main
Snake, Henry's Fork, South Fork Snake and Teton rivers as well as dozens of other
lightly fished smaller streams, spring creeks, lakes and reservoirs, featuring trout
from one to over 15 pounds!"
