Blackfoot report – 5/8
Yeah, no! It’s up nearly 1.000 cfs in 24 hours. 1/2 OFF Fridays. 50% Off your 1st dozen nymphs and dries! Every Friday – Every Week Another example of the biggest fly selection and best prices in town at The Kingfisher. Even our salmonfly patterns are $1.95 every day. . . .and we have LOTS…

Rock Creek report – 5/8
REPORT: The river’s up to sketchy wading levels and the fishing will shut of hard as it continues to rise. Take heart, more water means ideal floating conditions right on the edge of salmonfly madness. Give it a few days to settle into its groove and it’ll be game on. Not so much today…

Clark Fork – Tenkara & Morrels
Took my son Leo down to the Clark fork for his first experience with a Tenkara Rod. For those of you that haven’t fished one, they are a GREAT way to introduce a kid to fly fishing. They load with ease and you have no line to mess with. They also teach a young angler…

Missouri report – 5/6
Another day of calm and sunny. Egggggselent!!! The river is up just a tiny bit (120 cfs) below Holter this morning, and the fishing should be very good. Lots of blue wings and lots of March browns out and about tempting the fatties lately. Button emergers, cripples and CDC stuff have been the best on…

Rock Creek report – 5/6
REPORT: You can bet that the 70 degree days and near 40 degree nights will start to bring down the snowpack. The creek is showing a rise in flow this morning and that’s likely to continue and get more dramatic over the course of the day. You should be able to get better topwater…

Blackfoot report – 5/6
This river and the upper Clark are the only 2 local whose cfs graphs are hiding the truth this morning. Expect the level line of Blackfoot flows to spike radically upward in the VERY near future – probably today. The weather for the week ahead is sure to unleash the May/June blow-out. You may get…

Clark Fork report – 5/6
REPORT: The uppermost river looks to be your only real solid Clark Fork option for a day float. The mid and lower rivers are going to be on the rise all day long. Wading these lower stretches for the first 1/2 of the day may be viable, but the water’s getting ready to let loose. …

Bitterroot report – 5/6
You may get 1/2 a day of fishing in before the wall of water hits. While the numbers don’t show that much of an increase this morning, the graphs tell the story. High water’s on the way. Little chance for this to let up, too, with 74 degrees today and warm and rainy moving in. …

Missouri report – 5/5
Definitely some nicer weather on the Mo today. Kinda sunny, but not much wind. That’s a trade I’ll take, especially when the fish have been pretty willing to rise in the sun like they have been recently. Lots of blue wings and lots of March browns out and about tempting the fatties lately. Button emergers,…

Bitterroot report – 5/5
There they are! Nothing special or secret, but these 2 bugs prospecting the surface in tandem have been really good on the Bitterroot lately. The river is already on the move upward this morning and this trend will likely continue in the face of the drastic warm-up we’re supposed to be seeing. You may be…
