The first significant snowstorm this fall hit us hard over the weekend. Roughly six inches of snow fell in the valley, with much more blanketing the higher elevations. It came in with cold temps and very strong winds. North into Yellowstone and Montana saw even more accumulation. The forecast for this week is for clearing, and temps in the high 40's to low 50's. The Snake should see some good fishing this week on streamers and small mayflies. Blue Winged Olives and Midges should really pop all over the region...the streamer fishing should be great on the South Fork and in Yellowstone as well. Along with this weather comes thoughts of fall in Montana. Weather you are fishing, hunting, or just passing through the Big Sky State, it is a time of year not to be missed there. Here are a couple of nice shots from a 2004 fall trip to the Clark Fork River. Fall colors and Scott Smith with a typical Clark Fork Rainbow taken on a bugger.
