I have some questions about the Nisqually. My wife and I are looking to buy a house in the Yelm area once we finally get up to Ft Lewis in september. We may inherit an old Avon raft, and I would like to float the Nisqually to get back into paddling and fly fishing. I was wondering where to put in, how the float is, how long it takes, and how the trout fishing is. I was stationed up there a few years ago, but the only fishing i really got a chance to do was on the Little D (caught lots of cuts up there).
I've been out of the fly fishing game for a couple years now due to flight school and being in the south. What size trout are the average for Nisqually? Should i plan on fishing a 3wt, 4wt, or 6wt (my 3 trout rods)? I do not plan on keeping any trout, rainbows and cuts have been catch and release only since i was very young.
What should i be looking for on the river to fish? What flies are working on the river? Is there any dry fly fishing on the river?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also, if there are any easy (class I-II) floats in the area as well, I would really appreciate some help getting back into the river systems.
Thank you in advance,
Dan
