Is there a consistent bass fishery at ririe? I remember going a while back and catching nothing but small fish? Does anybody have any info at all? Any would be appreciated

Hey Everet14 Long time no hear. I flyfish for smallmouth every year at Ririe. 80% of the fish that I catch are really small. I have caught a few larger smallmouth but they are few and far between. I tied up some crayfish patterns to try and dredge up some larger ones this year.

Good Luck

My experience with Ririe Bass is similar to windriver's. For what ever reason bass fishing at Ririe isn't as good as it was 15-20 years ago. Recently I know that two day tournaments at Ririe will have a winning weight of less than 10lbs. Few tournament fishermen weigh in a limit of bass at Ririe and many fishermen don't even weigh in a single fish.
I've seen several Largemouth bass caught out of Ririe 5-10 years ago. Anyone caught or know of any LMB caught at Ririe in the last year or two?

Thankyou guys, I don't know what I have been doing but Ill try to contribute more. I was just wondering because my friend said that a couple nights ago him and his friend caught 25 fish, including two three pounders and a 5 pounder. They said that they lost several this size and had a couple on even bigger. I too have ony caught small fish outta ririe recently but after hearing this i was wondering if something had changed. I find it hard to believe that they did so good, but who knows?
