Blackfoot River Fishing Report – 6/29
The Blackfoot is the only local river that has stayed relatively stable through this week during the 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…

Rock Creek Fishing Report – 6/29
Rock Creek is back on the drop, so the fishing should only get better from here. But it is bad timing, I suppose. 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…

Missouri River Fishing Report – 6/29
The Missouri is has bumped up above 5000cfs. It appears to have stabilized a bit, but fluctuating flows should usually be a cause for pause. By my guess, the fishing should still be good. When the wind is calm, the dry fly fishing has been awesome, but nymphing is still the reliable method. For…

Missouri River Fishing Report – 6/28
The Missouri is holding flows between 4000 and 5000 cfs. There are still a lot of boats out here right now, but the fishing makes up for it (and is the reason why they’re there in the first place). When the wind is calm, the dry fly fishing has been awesome, but nymphing…

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…
