Conditions : Big Hole River: The river has seen a little increase in the flow for a couple days but has tapered off some with the last two cooler days. The clarity is good, it's got that tea colored water. Fish have been very hungry since last weekend. We haven't heard any bad reports from here. You can fish any style you prefer right now. The nymphing has been great. Everything from Stonefly to Caddis nymphs are being gobbled up. Skate or twitch some adult Skwala, Caddis or Mayfly patterns on top. A lot of the fish are keyed in on the adults and are surface feeding. If your looking for those big boys pull out your streamer box. You may have to fish your way through a good number of average sized fish because a lot of 15 inch fish are eating your fly before the big fish that hold a bit deeper get a chance.

About: - The Big Hole River comes to life in the Beaverhead Mountains south of Jackson, Montana, as the outlet of Skinner Lake, elevation 7,340. Throughout the 155.6 miles it flows, the Big Hole takes on many faces. From its beginning as a small mountain stream, the Big Hole flows north to Wisdom, where it gains strength by joining with the North Fork and flows northeasterly for about 25 miles.
