Montana Fly Fishing Report: Kootenai River

Montana Fly Fishing Report: Kootenai River
Current discharge from Libby Dam is currently 7000cfs and water temp below Libby Dam is now 55 degrees.  Yesterday the fish were happy up and down the river and all guests and guides had a great day!  Caddis were popping on the upper river for most of the afternoon and crane flies were bouncing around as well.  Tan parachute hoppers covered the crane flies and fished with a caddis pupa dropper it made the day pretty consistent.  With heat on the way and daytime temps predicted to hit the mid-90′s for the next few days it will be wise to get on the water early in the morning for the best dry fly action and again for the last couple hours of the day.  Get the bobbers out for afternoon fishing and get the nymphs down to bottom.
