Gallatin River

The river has dropped and is now fishing with large nymphs. The Salmonflies are just around the corner!! A few have been spotted on the river. Fishing with dark wolly buggers, girdle bugs and price nymphs are all working well. You need to seek out the slower pockets and go deep with a lot of weight, but the fish are there. Be careful wading the river is moving fast. 2800+- CFS
