Torreys To East Fork
This stretch is mellow and very scenic and an absolute must do for anglers. From Torrey's Hole down to the town of Salmon you can mainly expect class I to II water. Drift boats and fishing rigs are the norm here. For those wanting to fish Rainbow, cutthroat, bull trout and Steelhead; this is your paradise.
Suggested river levels for paddling this section of the Salmon River are between a bare minimum of 700cfs and a high of 7,000cfs.
