She’s open and dirty, but fishing really well. There might be a foot or so of visibility, but trout have to eat and fishing a big rubber legs on 6lb Maxima is a ton of fun. We also played around with small nymphs as a solid hatch of BWOs rolled down the river over the [...]

….to look into the future? Just go fishing. That’s what I’d do. What I mean by this, is can one really say what the summer angling season will actually look like? Educated guesses are popping up all over the Web and some of them are quite good. I pay attention to a couple of them, [...]

In one week, I will be sitting in Bariloche, ready to embark on a fishing trip of a life time – three weeks in Argentina with two of the closest friends a fishing guide can have. Ten days of this will be hosting a wonderful group of anglers that I have fished with since the [...]

High up on the volcano it was wet and snowing. As we rounded Quake Lake, the clouds parted and sunshine appeared, giving way to the Madison Valley. It’s a different world down in the valley, and I love it. Elk numbered in thousands on the benches above the river. While the snow pack at 7000 [...]

Today was the day. You missed it, actually just about everybody missed it. Fortunately for you, there will be a few more days like this one….maybe. By chance, I had the day off and ran to Ennis to take care of life. After a quick stop at the Madison River Fishing Company, I got on [...]

Thanks to those of you who diligently return to fish with Big Sky Anglers each season, and to those first timers who trust in our word, we continue to thrive in this [...]

Winter is back in Montana for the next 5-7 months. Most of the locals are the hill in BS for another powder day…….West Yellowstone narrowly missed getting pounded with the snow. Shit, we needed it. While November can feel like Winter, there is not one angler/hunter/outdoorsmen that would say November is winter…..winter-like, maybe, but not [...]

Smoke has been billowing out of our chimney the past two mornings, as the first dose of cold weather is upon us. Ten degrees yesterday morning and twelve degrees right now at 7:15 am. A mound of fire wood (we need more) is sitting out the front door waiting to be split and stacked…..for now [...]

One month down and two more to go. Where did September go? Probably the same place that June, July and August went – right down the river. Bob (above) and his crew came out for a late September Montana fishing trip. We fished the Madison within YNP, the Madison below Lyons Bridge in Montana and [...]
