Fishing Report: 
Sunny days are difficult on the spring creeks this time of year.  Hoppers, ants, and beetles are definitely all gone for the year.  It is almost November so there is no terrestrial fishing left.  Keep an eye out for cloudy and overcast days, the beatis will follow and can make for some great BWO fishing as well as good nymphing with mayflies.  If you can get a day where things aren't blowing 30MPH+ over in Livingston, the creeks have been pretty good, if you can't find that day, go ahead and dial back your leader to 1x or 0x and begin hucking junk, that's the best way to go at that and combat the wind. Small black leeches and Cone-nans can work great. Small eggs and worms work well this time of year, so make sure you always have at least a few in your box. Offseason creek rates go into effect on October 15th and drop from $75 to $40, that's when us poor local guys can afford to head over! Until then you won't find me on the creeks (besides the MZ).
