Flow: 230

Water Temp: 56-62

Water temperatures have been out of the red zone for a week now and the trout are loving it. Trout from 13” to 20” are lively and releasing easily. Flow fluctuations should be much lower as we near November 15 when it will go to constant rate. The only disadvantage is the clarity. 18” to 2 feet and it’s been slow to clear. Streamers, san juans, eggs and BH 20” foot the bill for numbers with bwo nymphs attracting the larger, smarter ‘bows.

Join us this Saturday as we and the Nature and Raptor Center host an outdoor showing of Where the Yellowstone Goes as it follows a 30-day drift boat journey down the longest undammed river in the lower 48. Intimate portraits of locals in both booming cities and dusty, dwindling towns along the Yellowstone River, illustrate the history and controversies surrounding this enigmatic watershed leading to questions about its future. Connect with colorful characters, get lost in the hypnotic cast of a fly rod, and experience silhouetted moments of fireside stories on this heartfelt river adventure.

Bring a lawn chair and jacket as we enjoy the film on the deck of the Nature Center at 7:30 on a beautiful fall evening. $5.00 per person.

Tight lines,

Ben
