\"Chewuch<\/a><\/p>\n

The Chewuch is a river that takes it\u2019s time getting where it\u2019s going and maybe you should too when fishing its tannin colored waters. From its origin hear the Canadian border to its confluence with the Methow River in Winthrop the Chewuch has a slower pace than its sister stream the Twisp. I\u2019ve found that the Methow and Twisp rivers are much more similar than the Chewuch to the other two.<\/p>\n

\"Resi<\/a><\/p>\n

For one the color of the Chewuch is much more tannin colored and golden where as the Twisp and Methow are very clear as well the Chewuch for some reason seems to produce more resident redband trout than the Twisp and Methow.<\/p>\n

\"Butter<\/a><\/p>\n

Now don\u2019t get me wrong the Chewuch has what seems to be on some days a limitless supply of butter yellow cutthroat from green to red to gold. As well the Chewuch like the Methow can produce huge cuttbows, progeny of resident or anadromous redband and cutthroat parentage. The Chewuch for a small stream can surprise any fisherman with everything from bulltrout to spring Chinook, cutthroat and redband the Chewuch has all the same fish packed into its small banks as its bigger neighbor the Methow.<\/p>\n

\"Giant<\/a><\/p>\n

There is one thing I look for on the Chewuch though and its dry fly fishing, from a size 14drake to a size 6 hoppers there are fish ready to rise to the occasion. Dead drift or skate, it\u2019s usually one or the other if not both and the scenery is unparalleled .<\/p>\n

\"last<\/a><\/p>\n

Fishing on the Chewuch for me usually kicks off around mid July just after run-off. If you are interested in fishing the Chewuch just drop us a line via phone or email, info is on our Guides page. Happy Spring Ya\u2019ll!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
