COMMENTS FOR THE WEEK:
This was an awesome week of seeing familiar faces from years past from Arkansas. The Silver fishing was pretty good even with the low clear water. The trout fishing was yet again awesome catching some big healthy trout in salmon spawning beds. Dollies were insane this week with tons of little dollies moving in and also ranging in size with plenty of big colored dollies being caught as well. We are still catching the occasional jack king and Grayling rolling beads in the main river. Overall, this was an amazing week of fishing on the Chosen to add to an already incredible season. It is getting bittersweet rolling into our last week of fishing up here because nobody is ready to go home yet. Nothing but big smiles and good laughs this week thanks to our great guests, we are all very thankful!
