Beautiful Float on the South Fork of the Boise

Yesterday we launched a Father's Day flotilla of three boats down the South Fork of the Boise.  We floated from the dam to Danskin, and it couldn't have been a better day.  Perfect weather and a pretty good Caddis hatch greeted our group, but unfortunately we were three of about 50 boats floating the upper stretch.  The fishing was decent, but it was apparent that the fish had been getting pounded.  While the Caddis came off in big numbers, the fish weren't really keyed in on the bugs, and most of our action came off of nymphs.  The Salmon Flies haven't showed up on the upper river yet, but it shouldn't be long.  We found big nymphs under the some rocks and caught a few fish peeking at dries.  The fishing should only get better on the South Fork, but I would hit it on a week day if possible.
