[quote flyfishingfool]I have no idea how popular it is. I do know that I always have a few spots that I don't see anyone else in. So even if you aren't fishing in the derby I'm sure you will be fine. Its one large river. The only fish I ever seem to catch are whitefish and browns, then the occasional cutt. I have only caught a few rainbows in the time I have fished the river. I find it a little interesting that the derby is right during their spawn, I guess they really are trying to get rid of all of them. Personally, I would rather catch a big fat rainbow than a cutt, but thats just me. Rainbows have a heck of a lot more fight in them and are also a much smarter fish.[/quote] I'm with you on that...I catch mostly browns..a few cutts and very few rainbows...I'd much rather catch the bows...better fight and taste better too!!
