hit the water sunday 6:00 and went right to the boundry line. saw one caught by 7:00 and was it. nothing by 12:00 tried a lot of change up's, went back to mag. warts and at 1:30 fish on. big fish... 35+..thirty min. later fish #2- 22# ya ....after yesterday's 4200 should only get better. I would like to say everybody worked well with each other. lots of boats but managed well, make sure your warts track true or you'll catch fisherman rather than fish..weather sucked!!!!used 6# power pro.... great stuff!

Daddy like.

Fished the wind for three hours Saturday evening didn't see any action.Fished for three hours on Sunday morning My boat got skunked but my buddies got one nice 25 pounder.Then they proceeded to plunk below the dam and landed a 12 pounder.The fish are
rollin over the dam pretty good,It's time!!!
Good luck,

Can you get a drift boat in the Wind River?

Is there a drift upstream of the mouth?

Thanks pat_herbig@yahoo.com

You can use a drift boat out at the mouth with a 6 to 8 horse kicker on it.As far as
drifting the river it's self I wouldn't try it myself.It's a fast river up stream.Good luck,

Spike, there is NO place to put and drift boat in the Wind River unless you are fishing the mouth. Well I suppose there is one area right above Beaver Camp Ground you could put in but you couldnt take it out again until the mouth and theres some nasty class 5 and 6's and a Shipard falls before you would get there. This would be the Death Drift.

MetalHead there is a take out,the boat will be there but the captain and passengers of the boat will be lodged in a rock garden or drop in the canyon. Unless you are a kayaker, I would not attempt.

Spike-you do see guys at the mout in driftboats with a kicker.

round two - tuesday - lite on boats about 30-35 and lost 1/2 of those by 10:00am. hooked two boated one. lost one on being stupid.I think you learn more on the dumb mistakes than anything else. cooked it on a cedar plank. if you don't know what that's about you owe it to your self to find out. saw about 10 fish caught.
