Hello fishing report seekers!  It is 2015 and we are deciding not to do anymore fishing reports - the reasons are too many to explain here so if you want what you are looking for do something very simple.  Call us...

SALMON FLIES!

The big bugs on the Big Hole River showed themselves yesterday to kick off the dry fly bight. Over the past two days trout have been coming to the surface with authority on several different patterns. The water is clear and the river feels just perfect! Call Montana Flyfishing Expeditions for more detials!

Flows are continuing to drop and there have been some reports of some fish being caught on the Yellowstone but we are still a ways out before we are in the "normal" game.  Runoff on the Yellowstone will be much earlier than the past few seasons so definitely expect to take advantage of some of the big bug dry fly fishing this year!

PMD's and CADDIS!

With the warmer temperatures and cloud cover conditions the Lower Madison has been producing some great dry fly fishing on both mayflies and caddis starting right around lunch time and lasting for about 4 hours. The cloudier the better and it won't be too long before we have Salmonflies in the mix as well - this early season has been one of the best on the Lower and is looking like it will continue to produce all the way through runoff!

The Lower Madison seems to be the best bet around the Bozeman area as the clarity is hanging on without a lot of fishing pressure out there. The weather hasn't been the greatest and isn't forecasted to get any better this weekend but the fishing is worth the wind and rain. Big and little setups are the best bet and you should expect to see the full spectrum of fish age/size class. Enjoy the great fishing that the Lower is giving up right now!!!

After spending a few more days on the Missouri this spring there are some happy clients and happy guides. Not a whole lot of dry fly fishing available but the nymphing is pretty darn good along with some streamer fishing thrown in as well. Montana Flyfishing Expeditions will be visiting the Missouri more frequently over the next couple of weeks due to runoff conditions throughout the state - looking forward to it!

One of our favorites is going to be muddy and off the menu until mid to late June - keep coming back to Montana Flyfishing Expeditions for current updates. Hopefully the Yellowstone will clear in time for Golden Stones and Salmonflies as we have not been able to really fish these hatches for the past 2 years - keep your fingers crossed!

Before the wind and snow hit the Missouri was producing some nice fish both below and on the service. Winter is here today with lots of white stuff falling and although this will put fishing in the tough category Montana is happy with the current conditions!

Winter is finally setting in throughout Montana with a lot of snow falling everywhere. With the last week being pretty mild with temps into the lower 50's fishing was really good for January but will taper with snow conditions predicted for several days now. Obviously a very welcome and needed change!

When the wind is not blowing hard the Yellowstone River is producing some great midge hatches providing fly fisherman great winter fishing. The hatch is predominately an afternoon event but is well worth any angler's time and not too many folks out there doing it. Montana winter flyfishing...sometimes the best flyfising in Montana!

The Missouri River is still fishing very well in the upper reaches near the dam and Craig. When the wind is not blowing you have some rising fish on midges which makes most anglers happy and if you need more than that streamers are working along with most things that sink and are pink. Is that allowed?!? Montana Flyfishing Expeditions will be visiting the Missouri next week so looking forward to some good fishing and catching up with old friends.

The mild Montana winter has made the Bighorn one of the most consistent fisheries for a while now and Montana Flyfishing Expeditions expects this to continue throughout winter and spring. Everything in the box seems to work sometime throughout the day so bring your dries, nymphs and streamers and enjoy the great fishing on the Bighorn River.

Fishing the Paradise Valley spring creeks is a great choice for winter flyfishing in Montana right now. When the wind is calm you will experience great midge hatches that will get the fish up on the surface and happy! All the spring creeks have their winter rates and small crowds so take advantage if you can.

Montana Flyfishing Expeditions is out on the Yellowstone today trying to dodge the wind and pick up a few fish on the warmest day of the season so far. We will most likely be fishing streamers most of the time along with nymphing a few holes. A few fish so far with more to come!

Along with the warm weather in Montana this weekend expect breezy conditions. The Missouri River is fishing well when conditions allow with nymphs, streamers and a little bit with dry flies. Check out Montana Flyfishing Expeditions specials on the Missouri River for the Spring season! Contact Robert Boyce for more information!

The Big Horn River fished very well over the past few days with sunny skies and calm wind. Montana Flyfishing Expeditions spent our days on the lower river fishing both dries and streamers and both were very successful.  Numbers and quality of fish were good and crowds were minimal making the entire experience on the Big Horn awesome for Montana spring fishing!

Very few crowds and plenty of fish during a few guide days early this week on the Missouri River. The majority of the fishing was done beneath the surface on nymphs but as each evening approached more heads were up on midges. The rising fish were not too technical and could be fooled with PA's and Gnat's, which is nice! Still some days left for Montana Flyfishing Expeditions spring special float price of $350/day. Give us a call if you want to hit the water!

This past weekend brought on one of Montana's spring snow storms on all of Southwest Montana which made the Baetis POP on both the Yellowstone and Madison Rivers. If you could handle the white stuff falling from the sky you were rewarded with excellent dry fly fishing for a good chunk of the day. NO CROWDS = GREAT FISHING!
