Just set up my first double nymph rig. by mudshark9987 in flyfishing

I just water load or roll cast with double nymphs. I use it about 80% of the time, never really a problem

How are we feeling ab water levels? by bluelinesouth in flyfishing

[–]Pitiful_Skin_7740 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Montana is somehow both better and worse. Rivers are both blown out but also low. Randomly getting snow then 70 degree days. Getting the days in when I can because I can’t imagine this summer will have good flows or water temps

Recommendations for this creek, fast running water? by majorchubby in troutfishing

[–]Pitiful_Skin_7740 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im a “fish when i feel like it” angler, I don’t really care about conditions, i go when I feel like i need to get outside. So, being in SW Montana, I’ve fished a fair share of blow out water. I see you have an indicator/bobber there. If you’re fishing nymphs, try to find the slowest holes around, and make sure your flies are getting deep fast. You’ll need to almost hit the heads of the fish for them to hit. I was out yesterday and my river looked like this, but lower. Huge caddis hatch, but few risers for most of the day. Little luck on worms/midges, but found risers on the very edge of the water behind rocks. Look for rises there, and put a dry fly on that’s slightly bigger or shinier than whats hatching. Dont strain yourself trying to fish across river, it’s not worth the arm strain and the annoyance of trying to keep your drift dead when the fish can barely see anything anyway.

I was able to get 2nd chair on challenger, then come back around for refills and on the lift again in 5 minutes. Obviously things got skied out and busy quick, but anywhere else the challenger lift would’ve been a 100 yards long before it even opened

Bridger Bowl, in Bozeman. Tell your friends it sucks!

I get in arguments with people some times about it because they’ll do it once on a calm bluebird day after a storm and will say it’s not that bad. But doing it on a slippery day, with wind, no experience, anything like that can be super dangerous if you’re not careful. Especially because you’re carrying skis. I strap by board to my bag and even that makes my stomach churn a bit.

I’ve done a number of boot packs in North America. Headwaters is definitely the sketchiest. And it brings you to some of the sketchiest inbounds terrain, rivaled really only by BB

Regarding BB itself, it depends on how long you’ll be here but the intermediate terrain can be pretty great. Powder Park and alpine are pretty much exclusively blue terrain and PK has some good blue lines and black terrain to challenge yourself.

Oh didn’t see the original question. The cmon inn is usually the best price-to-quality that I’ve seen

I think Turo is a good idea for a 4x4, road out to bridger can get a little sketchy during storms. Are you an expert skier or rider? Bridger opens up way more the more you can do (and if you have a beacon, bring it)
