Madison River Fishing Report for October 26th, 2018

Dam: 921 cfs

Kirby: 1,040 cfs

Varney: 1,090 cfs

The weather around here has been nothing short of spectacular over the last two weeks, but it looks like cooler temperatures will be moving back in after the weekend. Normally we’d be ok with keeping a little more sunshine around, but something has got to pick up the streamer bite on the Madison and hopefully this next cycle of rain and snow will be exactly what we need. We will be looking at highs in the low 40’s after Sunday with plenty of clouds in the mix, so now is a good time to get your Fall fix on the Upper Madison before Winter engulfs the Greater Yellowstone Region.

Madison River Fishing Report for October 4th, 2018

Dam: 931 cfs

Varney: 1,050 cfs

Madison River fishing report. The Upper Madison continues to fish well this Fall. Obviously some days are better than others, and the windy ones have made for a little tougher bite, but the river has been holding its own for the most part. Flows are about normal for this time of year, and air temperatures have made for some really pleasant days over the last week but that is about to change starting tomorrow. The forecast is calling for highs in the high thirties to low forties for the next seven days, and we will definitely see some snow heading our way. The good news is that foul weather generally keeps the crowds down and we should be in store for some good hatches of BWO’s and Pseudos.
