Dickson Fly Fishing Summer Newslett

 _{Steelhead Class on the Skykomish on Saturday}

_{Summer is starting and the rivers are all open!}

_{Fishing Tip: Early summer steelhead are aggressive and not picky when it comes to flies. I use streamers in a variety of colors with some wiggle. Later in the summer after fish have been in the river a while I start scaling down the size of my flies and think Buggy!}

_{In the immediate future we will be doing local summer steelhead trips and Cowlitz/kalama trips in July. We have some new lighter spey rods so we will be single and double handed fishing. I am offering $50 off a Cowlitz trip from June 19-21.}

_{We will be doing schools on most weekends in June and a few in July check here for Calendar. These are designed to get newbies into the sport at an affordable price of $89 pp for a 4 hr float trip. With Huge Salmon returns and early river openings for salmon expected this year we will be doing a limited number of 4 hr float trips for Pink salmon from Sept. 1- 15 for $99 pp up to 3 anglers and the full day trips will start in Aug. and run until the end of Sept. We will be doing beach fishing, tidewater and river fishing for them, these are $150 pp, you can make your own group min of 3 up to 6 people or join a group.
