An impossible quest? Fly Fishing for me, comfort for DW

[havasu]

So I arrived up in Idaho to a beautiful RV park called Wagonhammer in North Fork, ID but to find that due to ash runoff from last years fires the trout fishing is almost non-existent at the moment. We will stay for a week to enjoy the park, wildlife, views and the hospitality but then I need to find some fishing!!

So any ideas?

In an ideal world I would like a nice RV park with paved roads, full 50amp hookups, easy access to bank fishing for trout, good WiFi and cell service. Then we are both happy.

I don't mind traveling again, but I'd just like to find a place that meets both of our needs. Lake or reservoir would be ideal if stocked.

Thanks, I think for a start we are going to head for Dillon - there are a couple of nice looking RV parks there and the fishing sounds good - but I wish the parks would answer their emails!! - where we are currently has zero cell service so we rely on email but they don't bother to answer them.

You're also just over the pass from the Big Hole river and the Wise river, both great fishing spots.

It's a favorite area of mine. I usually stay at the Anaconda Sportsman's Park - no hookups, but friendly, inexpensive and right on the Big Hole.

Yes, EUROCAMPER, forgot about the Beaverhead River at Dillon, MT. along I-15. Also a reasonable RV park or plenty dry camping at Clark Canyon Dam.

If you've got a float tube head over to Clarke Canyon reservoir. Some of the best fly fishing in the area.

Yep, head on over to the Island Park, ID. area. Henry's Lake and many other streams there. Try Valley View RV Park. Large sites, good rates.

Why don't you head to Island Park and fish the Henry's Fork or Lake. Or head to Silver Creek near Sun Valley.

I don't have a good answer, other than White River in AR. But they don't have FHU, unless Gaston's has camping, I can't remember off the top of my head.

But I'm subscribing to this topic because we are a family of fishermen who like to catch, not just fish, lol. It seems like too often fishing camps are very primitive, lumped in with "hunting camps". Don't fishermen and hunters deserve creature comforts too?!

I know how you feel. Went to do a little fly fishing this weekend and the water was so warm that I was thinking of throwing in some onions and potatoes and cook the days meal right in the stream.
