Pre-Runoff Fly Fishing Without the Crowds
Fly fishing in Montana between March 1 and April 30 is like no other fly fishing experience in the world. During this time of year, fly fishermen have the best chance of catching fish, and there are fewer people around than at other times of the year. The river is cool and low, and the fish are hungry after a long winter. While typically nymph fishing we do get some great hatches of skwala stone flies, Mothers Day Caddis, Blue Winged Olives, and March Browns. This idyllic fly fishing break will restore your spirit and is guaranteed to be something you’ll always remember. This is our guides’ favorite time to fish Montana. Come once in the spring, and you will see why. Make sure you bring along friends or family, as it makes fly fishing even more enjoyable!
