Spring Fishing
What can I say about spring in Montana? The weather is precarious so in the mornings it’s sunny and bright and by mid-afternoon a thunderstorm is brewing. But we need the moisture so no complaints here! It seems like all of our reservoirs are filling and that’s going to make for a fantastic summer. The wind has howled and the rain has poured almost each day I’ve been on the rivers. All the wind and rain can make for tough fishing conditions, but the fish have still seemed to cooperate nicely. Saturday, June 20th, showed us a weather reprieve with sunny skies. We were able to catch some good fish, with little or no crowds. My friend and client, Rob, stuck a real nice brown at the Warm Springs boat ramp on the Lower Madison. The Upper and Lower Madison both produced good fish. The Gallatin has been great, also. We have heard of the big bug, but have not yet seen them. I am sure with the warmer weather around the corner they will be making an appearance soon. Stay tuned…
