The Salmonflies on the Big Hole River have started to hatch. Currently we have seen them from Glen to the Divide fishing access. Today we had great dry fly fishing from Melrose down to Brownes Bridge. The fish should key in on the dry fly more as the week progresses. Dropping flows and clearing water have created prime conditions for the hatch. We have been fishing a salmonfly dry with a stonefly dropper and certain times of the day the fish have looked up for the Salmonfly dry fly. This is the best time to get out and have fun throwing massive dry flies.
