As it seemingly always does in here in southern Montana, the transition from late spring into early summer is passing in fits and starts again this year. Not that many weeks ago there were snow flurries in the air. Since then we’ve seen days in the 90’s followed by days in the 40’s; tank tops […]

This week’s weather forecast for the neighborhood looks like it was crafted by a dry fly fisherman or two. Here’s what the weather gurus say we have coming up for the greater Bozeman area over the next few days….

For the past week, it has been snowing here in Bozeman. Many people, myself included, are getting pretty fed up with the snow by now. Spring snow can reduce some fly fishermen to pathetic depths.
