If you haven’t seen the new nets made by Nomad you should check them out.  They are made out of carbon fiber and a fiberglass composite, making them extremely light and pleasant to handle.  They also float, which is nice if you happen to drop it in the midst of a lake hog photo shoot. …

The Yellowstone has been fishing very well lately, especially if you like to throw streamers.  The big boys are about as aggressive as can be right now.   As usual, the best days to target a toad are on cloudy, overcast days.  That being said, several large browns have been caught on streamers even on sunny…

Wow!  Congratulations to the Cory brothers, who both caught the biggest browns of their lives yesterday!  All season Wesley had been racking up good numbers of fish, (and as brothers do), had been teasing his older brother Miguel about his lack of fish to the net.  Looks like Miguel caught up quickly, perhaps all in…

With a push a cold air (and snow) it looks as though Fall has finally arrived.  The leaves are prime, the baetis are hatching, and the browns are on the prowl…  Local and private lakes have been fishing extremely well lately, mostly with leach patterns and small streamers.  The key most likely has been darker…

Both local and private lakes have been fishing well lately.  With cooler water temps and less fishing pressure you can pretty much expect a slam dunk day.  The only thing that might make fishing slower is if you happen to be on the water when a front rolls in, other than that, plan on catching…

Seems like every river in Montana last week experienced better than average streamer fishing – the fish are most likely chasing a little better due to colder nights and cooler water temperatures.  The browns on the Yellowstone are still hard to find, but good news if you find them they have been in the mood…

Starting in September, we welcome a change in colors; both in the foliage surrounding the rivers we fish, as well as the fish themselves.  Trout, (especially brown trout), don’t need to be as beautiful as they are.  Let’s face it, they swim around, eat, avoid getting eaten, and occasionally “dress to impress” their significant others. …
