I did my first no-bobber trip since the flows came up today.  With the river at 10000+ cfs, there are only so many no-bobber techniques you can do.  Today we focused on spey casting for trout, dry fly fishing and side-drifting nymphs on a tight line.  The highlight of the day was an hour or two of dry fly fishing right after lunch.  Ron and Gary worked over a huge riffle, methodically blind casting and occasionally targeting risers.  The grab was on and they had at least 20 dry fly grabs and landed a bunch of nice fish.  They both hooked fish on their spey rods, although most of those were smaller fish today.  Ron and Gary also landed fish while side-drifting.  We didn't catch any fish using a bobber today because - that's right - we didn't use one at all.
