It is another great weekend for hunting and fishing in Big Sky country. It is always best to “know before you go.” Find out all the latest hunting and fishing news from around the state, with updated reports from the Montana Outdoor Radio Show.
September 13th Summaries Bill from Rock Creek Marina says the walleye are still a little slow, the Northerns seem to be biting, and the so are the bass. Bill Brown at Bob Wards says big game is starting to get active out there for bow hunters, and fishing the rivers and creeks is great. Brett French Outdoor editor of the Billings Gazette discusses this week’s post, clay trapping, and hitting the Missouri River. Chancy at Snappy’s says kokannee looks to be a decent on Graves Creek and the Tobacco. Dale from Don’s in Lewistown says the snow and rain is moving out and folks are catching fish. John Harris from Lakeside Resort in Trout Creek says Noxon Rapids Reservoir is doing well on pike and a few walleye. Leonard from Roberts Bait and Tackle says trout fishing is pretty fair on Holter and so are the perch.
