Rock Creek’s flow has stabilized considerably around 1400 cfs with good clarity. If you’re looking to catch the first wave of salmon flies, it’s on! The Big bugs are crawling around on the lower half in good numbers and the fish are chowing them in spades! If you’re heading up here, bring any big…

  The Blackfoot has really dropped into shape. It is flowing at about 3000 cfs and is a bit off color from the recent rain. Caddis in the evening have been out in a big way, though nymphing during the day has been the most productive. For nymphs use pheasant tails, supermans, San Juan worms,…

  The Ol’Bitterroot is starting to push a lot of colored water. The flow near Missoula has shot past 5240cfs and is being funky with the weather that we’ve been having. The back and side channels are offering enough shelter in some places to get some decent fishing but the main stem is pretty swollen.…

The Blackfoot is slowly rising through the weather but should be a great option for the day. The flow is just a little over 3210cfs and hasn’t had any critical changes in the last 5 days. The streamer fishing has been very good with dry/droppers and tandem nymph rigs coming in close second. The dry…
