Date: Sept. 20-21
Host: Larry Donohoo
Where: Mountain View Reservoir
Originally this outing was planned for Horsethief Reservoir, but I was informed and confirmed with the Fish and Game that Horsethief Reservoir closes for camping on Labor Day (Sept.1) and is only open for day use. I want to thank Tom McKnight for sharing that information at our Bear Valley Outing, it would have been really embarrassing if we had all showed up and could not camp. So I will be hosting the September club outing at Mountain View Reservoir in Duck Valley on the 20th and 21st. Talking to the tribal fish biologist, Mountain View fishes very well through September and most fish are range between 16 and 22 inches with a few big fish in the 24 inch. Fish are caught on leech patterns of various colors, Sheep Creek Specials, Wooly Buggers, and Stayner Ducktails.
Fishing Permits can be purchased in Duck Valley at the store and tribal headquarters, the Fishing Hole in Bruneau, and in Boise at Sportsman’s Warehouse, Idaho Angler, and Cabela’s. Permits are $15 per day
Primitive campsites are $6 per day, and campsites with electricity and water are $15 per day and require a reservation. Reservations have the made at the Duck Valley Store (775) 757-3301.
