The Beaverehad River opening week has been nothing short of very good. Despite the low flows we have seen some great fish caught lately. The outflows from Clark Canyon Reservoir are only 130cfs. Wade fishing is your best option on the Beaverhead at these low flows. We have done best nymphing on the Beaverehad this week. Sow bugs, scuds, and midges have all been catching fish for us sub surface. All of the fish we have been catching on the river look healthy and wintered very well. Clark Canyon Reservoir is 84% full and it will still be stacking up water while runoff continues. Fishing should be very good this season on the Beaverhead River.
