Rivers are clearing and fishing!

Here's a video of Quick Draw McGraw fighting a nice brown on the L. Madison Fri. This fish took us all over the place before he found the bottom of the net. The fishing was good and the water was nice and clear. There was quite a few bugs in the air. Plenty of caddis, PMD's and yellow sallies, and the smaller fish were eating aggressively on the surface. Our best flies where clouser crayfish, seringold caddis emergers, and Copper John's. We did see a good number of salmonfly shucks on the banks, but not flying around. It should start to happen any day now. The traffic was a bit busier than normal, but you can't blame anyone for wanting to get out on the water and enjoy the spectacular day.

I will be up on the Missouri river for the next 10 days, so I am sure to grab some more great footage and stories as the boys from Oklahoma come to town to whoop up on the fish and lose all their money in poker to the guides. Until next time....
