I'm a novice and my family and I have an opportunity to go to Big
Sky,MT this August. Any suggestions on when would be better ie. early/
mid/late August? I love fishing for trout. Used to do quite a bit in
New York state. Since moving to Tenness


The situation here (in Montana) is not good.
The fishing right now (today, for instance) is as good as
it ever gets. But it shouldn't be. On June 20th the Yellowstone
should be flooding, raging and unfishable. Instead it's cool (still)
but low and clear, and the Salmon Flies are hatching 2-3 weeks
early. By August the guides will have to put roller skates on
the bottoms of their driftboats. High altitude hike-ins will be
all that's left..........if the whole state isn't in flames.
This could be a bad fire year.



Not good...Not good at all...
