This year, cool water temperatures in the middle of August are making for some great fishing along the Gallatin River. Get out there and enjoy! :)

Most of us schedule our outdoors adventures for July in order to beat the inevitable smoke from neighboring smoke fires that comes sometime in August. Bozeman, and most of southwest Montana, are having a pleasant summer, however, with moderate temperatures and clear skies; so, get out there and enjoy! Take a hike in the Gallatin Canyon or fly fish the heavenly Gallatin River. :)

A few late evening, summer rains muddied the Gallatin River a few days ago; but, the river is back in great shape once again. Get out there and enjoy a day of fly fishing! :)

One of the first things you'll notice while fly fishing the Gallatin River mid-summer is the clarity of the water...It's amazing. Of course, in the heat of the day you'll want to hit the shadows along the banks and the deep pools. Trout don't like the sunshine. :)

Sure it's raining a little; but, some of the most epic days of fishing come with rain. Get out there and enjoy! Imagine...If you camped at the Moose Creek campground, then you could be fishing this spot right now. Still want to sleep in because its raining? :)
