Fishing Report: 

Since temps have dropped back down and winter has settled in again over this way, not the first place we'd reccomend heading to right now - quite a few better options at this time of year in our opinion like the Missouri, Beaverhead, Bighorn, Spring Creeks etc. If you were bored of fishing other places and want to give this a go don't let us stop you, just don't head up high, stay down lower. When you go take your assortment of standard nymphs like hare's ears, pheasant tails and prince nymphs and throw in a few small stoneflies and some midges and worms and you should be set.
