Opening day for fishing on the Big Wood River was this past weekend – wahoo! We hope everyone had a wonderful time. As you head out, please be mindful that fish are spawning right now. Just like humans, fish don't like being disturbed when making babies! Here are a few things to keep in mind: 1.)Avoid fishing where there might be a redd (fish nest). 2.)Please don't let your dog jump in the river if there are fish in the area. Thanks for helping us protect our aquatic friends! #BigWoodRiver #FishResponsibly #WoodRiverLandTrust (fb)
