Continued from Waters We Fish Nelson's Spring CreekNelson's is a smaller stream than the other creeks, and varies in width from thirty to seventy five feet. There is a lot of flat water here, making a careful approach and presentation critical. The fish are not as spooky as they are selective. 6X and 7X tippets are the rule, and you'll need to have the right flies and "match the hatch" to catch fish here.
The spectacular peaks of the Absarokas seem close enough to reach out and touch. Leaf through any fly fishing magazine and there is a good chance you'll come across a photo taken on Nelson's. Reservations are required, and 6 anglers are allowed each day. Rod fees on Nelson's between June 15 and September 14 are $100 per rod. In the spring and fall, from April 15 through June 14 and from September 15 through October 14, the rod fee is $75/rod. The winter rate, from October 15 through April 14, is $40 per rod. To make reservations, call Roger Nelson at 406-222-6560. We do reserve a few rods on Nelson's throughout the season for our guided trips, so please call or e-mail us for details on availability. |
