Alan Liere's hunting and fishing report for Oct. 29, 2026
xCruzo Brief
Alan Liere’s fishing and hunting report for Oct. 29, 2026 focuses on late-season conditions across multiple waterways in Idaho, Washington and nearby regions. In North Idaho cutthroat streams, low “skinny” flows concentrate fish in pools and runs, with cooler nights pushing them from heavy current to slower, deeper water. Dry-fly action remains possible at the right times, while mornings emphasize subsurface fishing with nymphs and streamers. Blue-winged olives, October caddis and mahogany duns are expected, with midge activity present. The Spokane River and Lake Roosevelt are also highlighted for surface feeding and trolling success.
