I've been through that loop twice since the fire and I enjoyed it both times. Fire mostly affected Pietro Candre and a bit on Clearwater. Can't speak to fishing.

All,

Thanks for the info on my RFI on Moose River south solo. As it turns out, since that EP is every other day, I have a 50/50 chance of it NOT coinciding with my planned entry - I’m traveling from MD and need to stay on schedule.

So, I’m considering a return to Gabbro, despite being nearly skunked on my Sep solo there a couple years back after having just been there that June and crushing Turtle catching monster pike.

Aside from the permit scarcity, are there any updates to this region? I read a couple reports from TB and looked over the loop routes through Pietro, Turtle, Gull, and Clearwater, but wonder if they’ve recovered from the fires to a point where they’re still not exposed.

I tend to base camp and explore, which is what I did last time and Turtle was VERY productive in Jun, and dead in September.


Here’s my trophy from June.
