Main Salmon River "Cast & Blast"

Western Idaho's Unique Combo Outdoor Adventure
Chukar Bird Hunting and Fly Fishing

For real outdoorsman there is no other trip like it. Shotgun in one hand, fishing rod in the other. Idaho's Main Salmon River is the longest free flowing river in the lower 48 states. Our trip starts near Whitebird and winds 53 miles through the second deepest canon in North America to its confluence with the Snake and Hell's Canyon. We encounter serene stretches of calm water only to be interrupted by distant roar of large roller coaster waves. This was the home land of Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce Indians and is rich in history.

Fall hunting and fishing on the Main Salmon is five days of fun and excitement. Steelhead, large Rainbow Trout and Chukars make the sportsman's dreams come true. Two guests are accompanied by an experienced guide in each comfortable driftboat. For those fly fishing both Rainbow Trout and Smallmouth Bass lurk along the cliffs readily awaiting your dry fly. Each of our guides are expert fishers and they will give advice on patterns and where to put them.

Both Chukar and Hungarian Partridge inhabit the ledges and grasslands of the beautiful Salmon River in good numbers. Due to their fast flying nature they offer the extreme challenge in upland bird hunting. Hunting by boat we float along quietly increasing our chances of either hearing or spotting the birds before they can scatter.

DELUXE CAMPING

Our comfortable deluxe camp is set up each night before the guests arrive. High quality tents and camp gear along with clean toilets and hot showers are all supplied. Each guide chips in with his cooking speciality to provide a fresh culinary delight at every meal.

Each day our guests are given a choice of what they specifically would like to do. One might wish to dry fly fish all day or possibly to hike in search of chukars. Is is best if the boats travel separately during the day and rejoin at camp. Of course this makes for lots of good fish stories. All our guides are excellent fly casting instructors for those who've not mastered the art. We most certainly will give you plenty of good advice. Most of all we realize this is your vacation and we'll do our best to make sure everyone is comfortable and having a great time. We look forward to meeting you and hope you'll join us on the river!
