Fishing:
Missouri River: The Baetis are starting to explode below the dam by Craig and with some BWOs buzzing around we’re starting to see some risers by mid-day. Dry fly fishing is good mid-day with these risers try throwing some BWOs or Caddis at any risers out there. For sub-surface nymphing is still more productive, we’d recommend throwing some Caddis Pupas, Scuds, San Juans, or Czech Nymphs. If you’re in a boat don’t hesitate to try throwing some streamers toward shore and stripping them back, try throwing Zonker or Minnows.
Canyon Ferry Lake: Spring ‘bow fishing has started to take off and with leeches in stock Walleye fishing is starting to improve. Stick to jigs tipped with leeches or Rapalas for spin fishing; if your fly fishing try throwing some buggers or minnow streamers.
