Okay folks, here’s the skinny. Official date for this year is Sept. 25 - Oct.1. Three Rivers Resort, Lowell Idaho. Reservations are being taken now. Ask for Marie and tell her you are with the Fly Anglers OnLine group. 1-888-926-4430.
Those dates are for 05, next year is, well, over a year away; but you can figure the dates for 06 will be similar to 05. Last year was my first Idaho Fish In and it was a glorious seven days for me as I made sure I took as much time as possible to enjoy it. The fishing was good, the people just awesome and the scenery was unmatchable. I hope I can make it this year too, just not sure yet but my fingers are crossed.
Make your plans if ya can, you will have a great time.

Gosh, I think it is only 100 miles or so to Lowell from Missoula, MT - but it is a winding road which, once over Lolo Pass, follows along the river. It is so scenic though it might take 2 hours…I know several of the folks have driven it, and some do go back up that way to fish Rock Creek or the Clark’s Fork.
It is about 120 miles or so from Missoula to Lowell and would be a 2 and a half hour drive or so I think, unless you stop to fish the Lochsa on the way down . I might be a bit off on my time but thats my estimate. It is a beautiful drive and very enjoyable.
Man I am really looking forward to heading back out there. I just fell in love with the Selway last year and think that it is one on of the most beautiful rivers I have seen. By the way if anyone is interested I am probably going to arrive Saturday and hike up the Selway and camp up there for Saturday and probably Sunday night. I would not mind if I anyone else wanted join me. If anyone is interested, send me an email and we can work out some details.
