4 Day "Cast & Blast" Fishing and Chukar Hunting
Love to Fish? Love to
Bird Hunt? Come to Hells Canyon for the ultimate
sportsman's adventure. The wild Chukar (Himalayan Partridge) in
there preferred environment are a rewarding challenge for the
most avid bird hunter. As we float the Snake River in the bottom
of this spectacular canyon, casting to Rainbow Trout and Small
Mouth Bass we will be listening for the cackle of the Chukar at
river's edge. Finish releasing your Rainbow, grab your shotgun
as the guide maneuvers you into position, you can imagine the
rest. At
the camp that was set up earlier that day we will set the Sturgeon
rod
for the 8' to 10' monsters. After feasting on that nights meal you can
either relax in the beauty of the canyon or pick up your fishing rod for
the evening hatch on the Snake or one of it's many tributaries. Don't forget
about the Steelhead just in from the Pacific. If you are getting
bored with all the fish, take the dog on a hunt for a few
Chukar.
We
launch this trip from the heart of Hell's Canyon at Pittsburgh
Landing a short drive
from your motel in
Riggins. After the guides make a few adjustments with the gear
your on the river and catching fish and listening for Chukar.
You will float approximately 10 miles a day except for the last
day where just a short float to the confluence of the Salmon
River where the Steelhead (ocean run Rainbow) will be
waiting. A Jet Boat will pick you up at the confluence and take
you on an exhilarating ride back to Pittsburgh Landing.
