Here’s a great video from Fly Fish Food, in which Curtis Fry talks you through his top tips for finding and catching trout in high water. (A lot of folks in the West are going to need these tips in the coming weeks or months.) A lot of anglers are intimidated by high flows, but since the fish gotta eat, you’ve always got a chance. Curtis starts out with the most important consideration for fishing in high water: safety. No trout is worth your life, so make sure you do everything you can to avoid going for an unexpected swim. Then, he launches into where to fish, how to fish, and what flies to use.

Look for trout out of the main current, in softer edges and along current seams.
