FWP News: PARTIAL CLOSURE AT EIGHT MILE FORD FISHING ACCESS SITE LIFTED
By angelamontana

ENNIS – A partial closure at Eight Mile Ford Fishing Access Site has been lifted.

The boat ramp at this site on the Madison River was closed in February due to unstable ice and hazardous flooding. Ice jams and flooding here have receded, allowing public use of the ramp to resume.

Partial and full closures are still in effect for some fishing access sites affected by seasonal flooding. To see where site closures and waterbody restrictions are in place, visit fwp.mt.gov/news/current-closures-restrictions.

As river flows rise this spring, recreationists should keep in mind that dangerous river conditions can arise suddenly, and access roads can also be impacted.
