Fishing Report for May 1st, 2013

Madison River Dam: 851 cfs Kirby: 956 cfs Varney: 1,060 cfs The Madison between the lakes has been fishing well with nymphs over the last week, and while we’ve had some good days throwing streamers, it’s been far more consistent running the indicator rig.  That’s not to say that you can’t go out there and … Read more
