Big Wood River Idaho, March

In this episode of Fishing With Ladin, host Ladin Langeman and Steve Ronholt are fishing Big Wood River in Idaho, trying their luck on the fly for cold water Rainbow Trout. It’s March, which means the snow is still on the ground this far north in Sun Valley, but when it comes to Rainbow’s that’s not a problem. Top catcher Larry Hardie is once again on hand, and he suggests a deep-water approach. The team trot weighted nymphs beneath indicators along the far side structure, which quickly proves a deadly method. With fat winter Trout coming thick and fast to the bank, it’s no wonder our hosts would brave the cold to fish the Big Wood.
