hopperfisher 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Hi everyone, looking fo some advice on a trip I'm trying to plan. I want to go to Montana or Idaho or some such place in September and fish with big bushy dry flies for super aggressive trout. Does it sound like I'm asking for the world that we all wanna live in? Well, I am. Any ideas are appreciated!! Thanks guys! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peterjay 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 For west slope cutts, Kelly Creek, off the North Fork of the Clearwater in Idaho. My favorite September spot out there. Just plan on camping - it's 50 miles in from either Idaho or Montana. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steiner 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2013 Rock Creek. 30-45 minutes East of Missoula. St.Joe and the north fork of the Coeur d'Alene river in northern Idaho. Â Never been to Kelly Creek, but heard legends about an unspoiled river. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spinninBugs 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2013 Its is hard to go wrong when talking about fly fishing in Montana... if your wade fishing though you are going to enjoy creeks and tribs more than major rivers. IMO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jd1983 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2013 Look at a map of the Rocky Mountain Front and find some public access to creeks or smaller rivers there. There are lots of places that hold good numbers of rainbows, brookies, and cutthroat. They may not hold the monsters you see coming out of the Missouri or Bitterroot but you will catch a lot of fish. If catching 50 - 100 smaller fish in a few hours sounds just as fun as landing a handful of big ones, you would be guaranteed a good time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flywhiteguy 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2013 look into going to yellowstone park in the lamar valley lots of water to fish, slough creek, soda butte and the lamar river I will be there in three weeks but if you decide to go there check the weather last time I was there in August the night we arrived it was 70 degrees the next morning it was 25 and six inches of snow on the ground Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
