    Bitteroot Fishing Report – 7/6

    The Bitteroot is fishing the best in the evenings and the mornings. With this recent cooler weather the dry fly fishing has been great. Doing a hopper dropper rig into the evening has been consistently GOOD. Evenings have been the best for head hunting opportunities. For dries, use PMDs, drakes, yellow sallies, caddis, Golden stones,…

    Blackfoot Fishing Report – 7/6

    The Blackfoot is running 880 cfs this morning compared with 1080 cfs a year ago today. The cool nights are helping big time! For now, water temps on the Blackfoot are staying in safe range, but things are warm enough to keep the midday fishing less than stellar. Focusing on the early mornings and hitting…

    Rock Creek Fishing Report – 7/6

    Probably one of your best midday fishing options these days, and the morning and evening fishing is very good. Like the Blackfoot, Rock Creek has more riffles and faster water than the ‘root or Clark Fork allowing the fish more protection from direct sunlight (fish do sunburn you know!) and predators. The hatches are good…

    Clark Fork Fishing Report – 7/6

      The Clark Fork has been fishing really well. With this cooler weather expect the fish to be looking up. The upper sections are good, but starting to get pretty low, so expect to drag a bit if you’re floating. Water temps are back down to a reasonable level and the PMD’s are out and…

    The Kingfisher is open today like we always are! Fishing is still solid pretty much all day long on the Blackfoot these days provided you’re lathered up with sunscreen and protective clothing.

    Bitteroot Fishing Report – 7/1

      The fishing on the East and West Fork has been a good option with the colder water and the morning and evening fishing has been great. But…. The lower river temp’d out at 76 degrees last night, which isn’t good in any way. As for the evening, it’s standard summer fare, but you might…
