Fly-anglers continue to report good and consistent fishing in the Fall River. Continued monthly stockings have replenished the Fall River providing excellent angling opportunities. Nymphing and stripping small streamers with light fluorocarbon tippet have been the most effective methods. With warmer temperatures anglers should keep an eye out for Green Drake and Pale Morning Dun hatches and dry fly opportunities.
Restricted to fly-fishing with barbless hooks only. ODFW staff have noticed an increase in lures being used in Fall River and remind anglers that the use of lures and bait is prohibited.
