The Gallatin slowed down a bit with the cold weather we have been having. Actually, it slowed down a lot. Fish were still caught, to be sure, but anglers had to work harder for them. Personally, it seems a little early in the year to be breaking off out of my beard every fifteen minutes.
With the forecast for warmer temps and rain this next week, fishing should really pick back up. Look for BWOs in the afternoons, mainly from 1-4., on those cloudy days. They will be harder to find on the sunny days.
Streamer fishing is really picking up. Fish something big through the deep pools and runs and you should manage to pick up some big browns. Nymphing with BWO imitations, pheasant tails, hare’s ears, princes and other bead head patterns will produce fish. The subsurface activity has been pretty consistent all day long.
