: Gallatin River: The Gallatin will be a great option as we move into spring. Water clarity is variable this time of year but don't be afraid of the green. It has been mostly a nymphing game and double nymph rigs with stonefly or worm patterns paired with your favorite small attractor nymphs will be most consistent. Egg patterns and hot heads have also been productive as those rainbows start doing their thing. Dry-fly fishing will pick up as baetis start getting active but for now it's still midges. Streamer fishing has been good and the rule of "dark day, dark fly, light day, light fly," definitely rings true on the ole Gal. Reported by: Montana Troutfitters |

| About: -
The Gallatin River is about twelve miles long from its origin at the confluence
of the West and East Gallatin rivers to Three Forks, Montana, where it joins the
Jefferson and Madison rivers to form the Missouri River. The river flows through
a narrow valley consisting of agricultural and grazing lands at elevations less
than 5,000 feet. The banks are primarily undercuts, and long, deep pools provide
much of the fish cover. Except for the East and West Gallatin rivers,
tributaries to the Gallatin River are limited to a few spring creeks. Water can
be slightly turbid year-round due to the sediment input from the East Gallatin.
