The South Fork of the Snake River in Swan Valley, Idaho is a premier, world-class fly fishing destination known for its native Yellowstone cutthroat trout and large brown trout. This camera looks out from The Lodge at Palisades Creek, giving you a direct view of the water conditions on one of the most productive trout rivers in the West.

If you are chasing cutthroats or big browns, you do not guess about the water. You check this feed. Guides and locals use this camera to monitor water clarity and flow levels before launching a drift boat. During the prime summer months you can see if the river is crowded or if a hatch might be starting. In the fall, when the big fish are moving, this feed tells you exactly what the weather is doing in the canyon.

Local tip: The South Fork is about 45 miles from Jackson via US-26. The river is best fished from a drift boat, and most guides run full-day float trips. Check this camera the morning of your trip to confirm the water is clear and fishable before you drive over.
