Fly Fishing on the Madison River

New Madison River Fly Fishing Opportunities

After a week of 40 degree weather around West, we're starting to look ahead to March, April, and May on the Upper Madison.  Most years, we'd be shuttling down to Varney, 8 Mile, or Burnt Tree, but with the state's recent controversial decision to open the whole river year-round, we'll get to fish the first major hatches of the year from Quake Lake all the way down to McAtee. Weird, huh?  

Now that's it open year-round, let's make the most of it and do some fishing that hasn't been an option for anglers in a long time. We'll be opening shop a little earlier this year, which means more hands on advice will be available as well as a new learning experience through MRO's guides who will now be back at work earlier this year.  

In the meantime, don't forget to finalize your 2016 dates with us, your fly fishing experts on the Upper Madison River.
