- Want to learn how to fish or fly fish the boise river in Boise, Idaho, watch this video to learn everything you need to know about fishing and floating the boise river. Next video I'll be boise river float and exploring the middle fork boise river and south fork boise river fly fishing. I've fly fished the boise river from the boise river diversion dam to the snake river through Star, Idaho.
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoyed!

I'm just trying to learn my local section of the river with spinning reels....Thanks for giving the courage to go fly
Loving your videos - really helpful. Loading my kit at home in the uK and off to Boise tomorrow!
Right on!! Tight lines!
That spot around 8 min is goated, I've caught some monster browns and rainbows in that stretch, love it! If you gotta walk it's gonna be good
Nice video! I appreciate the info! Planning on coming out this summer. Tightlines
Glad it was helpful! 🙌🏼
I almost always use 4x on the Boise after using 5x once and losing several flies. When nymphing below Eagle and around Star there are suckers that will break off a 5x tippet very quickly - there are some 24" suckers in there.
I love this!!! Definitely agree bro, a 24 inch sucker will trick you into thinking it’s a huge brown😂 hate those things
Im new to fishing boise river and id lobe some location hints, i dont fully know whats private property or not or where there is easy parking and such
Wow! Great fish! 😀
Wow! Thanks gf😄❤️
Curious if you've had any luck fishing by Boise State campus? Great video!
Yes absolutely! I have more luck for brown trout near Boise State campus! Still lots of rainbow trout as well
Very love / hate relationship with the boise river. But cool video, awesome fish!
I completely agree!😂
You’re a legend! Thanks for this!
Of course!! Thanks for your support
I don't ever hear you talk about dry flies. Can you give a couple basic winners and sizes for Boise River in town?
Where is this spot I wanna take my son to the river just scared of the fast current love how the water is calm
Awesome video man!
Appreciate it!
Wow great video 😀
Glad you enjoyed 😂
Where on the boise river are you?
On the rubber leg nymph, that’s a black stone fly ? And what size hook do you recommend??
Yes! Black or coffee works great. Usually around size 8
Great video Grant!! Need you to come give a presentation to our club. WFFI women fly fishers of Idaho! I have February open!
Shoot I’d love too! I’m just so freakin busy all the time!
@@FireflyFishing I hear ya there Grant!! But thanks anyway!!
My biggest issue is finding water that isnt crowded or private property. All these Boise river guys post these videos of open water but honestly I dont see how you find it.
Fish on weekdays! That’s the biggest tip
@@FireflyFishing Lol, makes sense.
How did you get where you are walk/boat
Do you use 4x leader for streamers also?
Great question!!! No I’m using either straight 15 lbs line or heavier. Or leader wise 0x-2x is the lightest I’m going!
what set up you running here? thnx
9ft 5wt rod,5wt reel, 5wt line, 4x line, 4x tippet, 2 flies a split shot and an indicator.
@@FireflyFishing I meant what rod is that if you don't mind me asking. Awesome fly fishing vids man thanks for sharing!!
I hate nymphing but sometimes it’s the only thing that works😂
It’s magical
Not a bad show if I turn the sound off
😂😂 I agree sometimes!
Can u tell a natural fish from a hatchery fish
It can be hard, but I can tell apart the ugly hatchery fish from the wild fish! Most young hatchery fish don’t have an adipose fin, but as they get older they grow them back. Most young hatchery fish have smooshed faces and stuff. Just ugly bugs, however as they grow in the river, they can “look wild” again.
@@FireflyFishing ok thank you
Brook trout on the boise?😂
Yeah craziest shit man. Got a picture till this day
I believe you brotha you for sure know what your talking about!! Your videos are awesome!! that’s just crazy and awesome to me. I wonder if it was planted or possibly made it’s way down from a different body of water. That’s incredible dude!!
@@baileymcdonaldfishing6953 my buddy caught a bull trout on the boise too. Probably 24 inches. Got video even. Crazy stuff
@@michaelcoleman4700 on the lower Boise between lucky peak dam and Parma area? Because the upper Boise river forks such as the south fork have bull trout but not down here in the valley. Bull trout can’t survive or tolerate warm waters
@@baileymcdonaldfishing6953 it was below the lucky peak dam. Trust me i know the temperament of bull trout and how to identify them and his fish was every bit a bull trout. I dont think i will ever see a bull below the dam ever again. 1/1,000,000 catch
Can you hatch deez nuts?
