  • Our Outdoors: Corner Compilation

    Nick Simonson|Jun 6, 2022

    In the turn of the creek so tiny I could step across it I saw the tell-tale sign that suggested brook trout were lurking along the cut. The fast water of the tiny flow rolling down from the small impoundment in the recreation area above spun out against the grassy bank, still beige with the matted vegetation of last year and the peak through green of the late spring dappling the slight drop to the water. Stalking in on my knees, I pulled an arm's length of neon yellow line from my fly reel,...

  • The Peluso Report: Spring River Recap

    Mike Peluso|Jun 6, 2022

    I honestly cannot believe this is my last spring river fishing report. It just feels like we all got cheated out of a nice long season here. It is what it is, so here we go.

    "That's why they say Montana is the big leagues of fly fishing." My brother's words stung like a spring training cut for the lifetime AAA baseball player that knew this was his last shot at the majors, but still found the pink slip tucked into the air slot on his April Arizona changing room locker. The waters along the Yellowstone River outside of Livingston under the snow-capped peaks of the Beartooth mountains were high and muddy and while they reflected the runoff those of us downstream on th...

  • Brad's Bites: Red Levels Surging Again

    Brad Durick|Jun 6, 2022

    Storms over the weekend have put our flood situation on the Red River right back where it was last week. Only this time, we will have to wait a week for the river to rise and fall again. It now looks like around June 15 before boats will be able to get on the water and searching for catfish. Water temperatures right now are in the mid-60s so the pre spawn period for channel cats is in full swing. The next couple of weeks could offer great shore fishing opportunities. As the water rises again...
