The Big Hole River Fishing Report this week has been good. We are having Caddis and March Brown’s hatching on the river and at certain times of the day the fish have been looking up to eat. Dropper fishing in the morning has been fantastic. Trout have been looking for San Juan worms, prince nymphs, pheasant tails and stone fly nymphs. The streamer anglers are doing well throughout the afternoon hours. Our best streamer colors have been yellow, white and olive.
The river flows have been slightly coming up due to some snowmelt. The rise in the water has not caused the river to get dirty. You will find about 4 feet of visibility in the river but that can change quickly if we get a larger bump in flows. It is a wonderful time to get out on the Big Hole River. Feel free to stop in the shop for advice, bugs and a dependable shuttle. Our shop hours are 8:00 am – 5:00 pm daily.
