I can't quit the Lower Madison

So, the fishing on the Lower Madison has been so good, I can't stay away from it. I went back again today and found that the fish didn't want anything but crayfish patterns and midge nymphs. I even threw a San Juan Worm and an egg for a bit, and not even a nibble.....Fine with me.

Lower Madison River

This week Pete and I headed west and found ourselves floating the Lower Madison looking for pre-spawn Rainbows. Those of you familiar with this stretch of water know that trying to unlock its secrets can be an exercise in futility. Pete and got lucky and hit the Madison on one of her good days and were rewarded with sun shine, low winds, and hungry trout. Though we did find a couple of fish from the boat, most were caught while wading and thoroughly fishing the small pockets and runs.

Armstrong's Spring Creek

This week, former Bozeman Angler spey guru, Lawrence Stuemke, joined Peter and I for a day on Armstrong's Spring creek. For those of you that haven't messed around on this world famous pieces of private water, this one of those places that can, and often does, humble the most skilled fly anglers. The water is about 50 degrees year round, gin clear, and full of educated trout.
