Creek Fishing Report Plus Blackfoot Bow!

Runoff continues on the region's rivers and creeks. Rock Creek here at the lodge is up over a foot this morning after recent warm days and a few rain showers. It's running high and slightly off color but I was able to trick a few browns with a Big Horn Lead Eye Bugger this morning.

Most in the 8 to 12 inch range with one a little over 14. It's tough, fast fishing with very quick drifts and swings into pockets and deep pools getting some of the bite and erratic strips upstream very tight to the bank taking more fish. Like I said, it's tough work type fishing but a person can catch some streamer fish if they are committed to fast and furious and really feeling the take.

In other news, check out the photo Zac snapped of this beauty that Brett caught while fishing one of our rivers the other day.

This beautiful rainbow measured 25 1/2 inches according to Zac's tape measure. It ate a tungsten bead head "Bird Of Prey".

Great live release!


Nice one Brett!

Sharp Hooks and Tight Lines,
