"We have the advantage of having the country's most beautiful
and bountiful river as our office," comments Al Bukowsky,
owner/operator of Solitude River Trips. "Thanks to a 1973
catch-and-release only policy, the Middle Fork offers some of the best
cutthroat fly fishing in the world. And the water is so crystal clear, you can actually watch the fish rise to your fly!"
A river trip on Idaho's Middle Fork offers plenty for anglers and
non-anglers alike: exhilarating whitewater, stunning scenery, sandy
beaches, breathtaking waterfalls, soothing natural hot springs, Native
American pictographs, food to rival your favorite restaurant and more
stars than your kids can count. It's no wonder that the Middle Fork is
considered one of America's premier family adventure vacation
destinations.
"Snowpack at Banner Summit is at 94% and holding due to cool
temperatures," adds Bukowsky. "That equates to a terrific whitewater
rafting season, and will mean better fishing earlier - beginning in mid-June instead of mid-July."
The Orvis Company, founded in 1856, has been endorsing fly fishing
operations via a much-anticipated annual awards ceremony since 1986.
Recognition by Orvis is considered the industry's most prestigious
honor.
The season on Idaho's Middle Fork of the Salmon River runs through
