Hi Ray, welcome to FAOL. In October many trout streams will be closed to fishing. Check out the trout and salmon regulations for details. Those that are open may have Salmon in them. That means a heavy rod and weighted flies or split shot to get your offering close to the bottom. That far North the Salmon may done and Steelhead in the rivers. This will still call for fishing nymphs near bottom in the deeper holes. Dry fly fishing may be possible but if you find rising fish they will probably be feeding on midges
I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.
