Just got back last night from above Challis. We fished Squaw creek hole and another 5 miles above. My son, son-in-law and I hooked 30 and landed 18 all day Friday and Saturday. Roe is always my favorite, but the boys did well with a single orange bead. Expect to catch 70% wild fish, but the occasional hatchery fish makes the trip worthwhile. We brought home 5. It is still early, but there are fish there. I even caught my first steelie on a flyrod in 18" of water. The fish seem to be moving upstream slowly. I don't fish any single spot for more than a couple of casts - keep moving to new water. Good luck!!
