The Wood River should continue improving for brown trout this week. Grasshoppers are around. The river remainsslightly off-color due to runoff on Sun Creek and Annie Creek. Water temperature will continue warming significantly this week increasing hatches. Fishing below Weed Rd is best.

For brown trout the best section to fish is above Crooked Creek from boat. Fishing near Fort Creek might also be productive. Bank access is available below Weed Rd and at the USFS Day Use Area. The day use area should be fair for casting hopper and caddis patterns. The best bet from shore is below Weed Rd. There is parking and access at Weed Road.

Large redband trout are moving into the river.
