Rock Creek Report – 8/20
REPORT: The flow near Clinton this morning is 185 with a high water temp yesterday of 68. This compares to a flow of 254 a year ago with a high of 63. By midday, it will likely be a smokey affair on the creek as the School House fire wakes back up. You may want…

Rock Creek Report – 8/16
REPORT: Today’s flow near Clinton is 198 cfs compared with 267 cfs a year ago today. Still an attractor/terrestrial deal up here although standard mayfly and caddis patterns will take fish for you as well. While it sounds like a broken record, a red bodied humpy or royal Wulff in a 14 is tough to…

Blackfoot Report – 8/16
Hoppers and spruce moths are still the go-to bugs at this point although the caddis are hugely relevant towards the end of the day.

Missouri Report – 8/16
The flow below Holter this morning is 3150. It’s very much a morning thing over here these days with occasional fishing taking midday. The evening wakes up again a bit more but we’re really needing a cool down. Tricos and caddis will be your best bets early and targeted, quiet and DRAG-FREE drifts are the…

Missouri Report – 8/12
The flow below Holter this morning is 3060. It’s trico central over here in the mornings with decent fishing pretty much all day if you can weather the slower action of the afternoons. A slowdown may not be the case in today’s cloud cover, however, since the lack of direct sunlight will likely keep the…
