Missouri River Fishing Report – 9/28
Much like Missoula, to Missouri didn’t get rain like the forecast had indicated. Even so, the cool weather arrived as planned, but the fishing is still good. Bigger stuff is still working, like caddis, hoppers, and bigger mayflies. Smaller stuff is great, like tricos and pseudos. Nymphing is both good and bad, but…

Blackfoot River Fishing Report – 9/28
Saturday was quite cloudy, and the change of the seasons is definitely upon us, but the rain did no appear like we had planned. That shouldn’t change your game plan at all, if you prepared for it. For dries use tricos, big PMDs, BWOs, elk hair caddis, hoppers, Chernobyls, Orange Stimulators, parachute adams,…

“Why am I thus scared by fearful visions of the night? O Earth, dread queen, mother of dreams that flit on sable wings!” Saturday we saw the clouds we were expecting, although not amount of rain we anticipated. This isn’t a bad thing necessarily. Still keep the BWOs in mind, along with the flies…

“O awful crime! O deed without a name! Beggaring wonder! Impious! Intolerable! Where are now the laws ‘twixt guest and host? Accursed monster!” We are expecting some good rain this weekend.

Clark Fork River Fishing Report – 9/25
It’s going to be a wet weekend. Don’t be surprised if the BWOs get going heavy, as T-storms make great weather for the sun-shy mayflies. That being said, fish everything else just like you have been. For dries, use rusty spinners in the evening, elk hair and Goddard caddis in the evening, tricos, mayfly duns…

Rock Creek Fishing Report – 9/25
The reports call for rain this weekend. As mentioned in the other hatch reports, BWOs should be the ticket. The colder weather might put the fish down a little bit, just as a heads-up. For dry flies, use chubby Chernobyls, stimulators, PMDs, BWOs, bullet head stones, half downs, parachute adams, purple hazes, elk hair…

Missouri River Fishing Report – 9/25
We should see some rain down here this weekend. This could mean great things for the BWOs. Usually it takes some nasty weather to see big hatches of them. Bigger stuff is still working, like caddis, hoppers, and bigger mayflies. Smaller stuff is great, like tricos and pseudos. Nymphing is both good and…

Bitterroot Fishing Report – 9/23
“O awful crime! O deed without a name! Beggaring wonder! Impious! Intolerable! Where are now the laws ‘twixt guest and host? Accursed monster!” We might only see a few more of those as Hecuba begins her tragic exit, but for now, your 10-14 purple haze and parachute adams will catch fish. BWOs are buzzing…
