Rock Creek Fishing Report – 6/28
Rock Creek jumped a good bit in flows from the recent rain, but it’s still one of the better local options. Monday is the last day for float fishing, so get that in if you haven’t yet this year. Golden stones and green drakes are the ticket now, as the salmonflies have tapered off considerably.…

Blackfoot River Fishing Report – 6/28
The Blackfoot is the only local river that hasn’t bumped hard in flows from the recent rain. It’s also the river getting the most pressure right now. The fishing has been good, though. We’ve been seeing good numbers of salmon flies, golden stones, yellow sallies, BWOs and caddis. The best fishing is still…

Bitterroot Fishing Report – 6/28
The Bitterroot has spiked pretty huge on the lower end. Until it stabilizes, it’s probably worth avoiding. That being said, if you approach it from the higher end (West or East Fork included), you might be able to turn something up. For nymphs, use pheasant tails, caddis pupae, scuds, small micro stones and Pat’s rubber…

Clark Fork River Fishing Report – 6/28
The rain we’ve seen in the last couple days has pushed flows on the Clark Fork, especially on the upper end. We’re hoping to watch things settle down a bit, but it could be tough going for this weekend. It’d be nice to see the lower end drop below 20,000cfs, which might pick the fishing…

Missouri River Fishing Report – 6/26
The Missouri is fishing very well with all types of bugs right now. There have been good numbers of fish pods on all stretches and the clarity is good. For dry flies, we’re looking at small purple hazes, standard Adams parachutes, midge clusters, elk hair caddis, parachute baetis, baetis button emergers and small flying ants.…

Bitterroot Fishing Report – 6/26
With the warmer weather we’ve been having the flows have bumped up too 8400 cfs and the clarity is still improving. The best fishing has still been in the back and side channels but you can expect the main channel to start picking up as well. Streamers and nymphs have been working best in…

Clark Fork River Fishing Report – 6/26
After the bump of water that we got from the warmer weather we had, the Clark Fork is Starting to slowly drop again. The flow just above town is sitting at 7000 cfs with poor but improving clarity. Most of the tributaries are running clear, so if you can fish downstream of any of…

Blackfoot River Fishing Report – 6/26
The dry fly fishing has picked up here in a big way. All the way from the bottom to the top, we’ve been seeing good numbers of salmon flies, golden stones, yellow sallies, BWOs and caddis. The best fishing is still right off the banks in the softer water, but the fish are definitely looking…

Rock Creek Fishing Report – 6/26
The flow on Rock Creek is sitting around 1000cfs and the clarity is excellent. The salmon flies are starting to wind down but the golden stone and mayfly fishing is getting much better. For top water flies use chubby Chernobyls, stimulators, bullet head stones, half downs, parachute adams, purple hazes and para wulffs. For…

Bitterroot Fishing Report – 6/24
The upper end of the Bitterroot is on a slow rise in flows, and the lower end has jumped up in a big way. It’s probably not your best option around Missoula. If you do go out, focus on nymphing, but you might also see some salmonflies and golden stones flying about. Streamers will work…
