The water

It flows into camp run creek within the Kootenay Lake watershed (Kootenay Lake → Kootenay River).

Cutthroat Trout, Westslope (Yellowstone) Cutthroat Trout, recorded here in provincial fish-inventory data (6 records). The fish-passage model expects bull trout here too, since the reach is reachable with no barrier between, though there is no direct record yet. Named tributaries: orde creek.

The fishing

As a small stream, a tributary of Camp Run Creek, Floyd Creek fishes the way creeks of its size do: short drifts with a buoyant attractor dry over a light dropper, working the pocket water and the heads of pools. Match the fly box to the season and confirm against a current local report.
