MAPLE FIRE & MADISON RIVER - NPS |
.. The last few days of cool and damp weather have signaled the upcoming Fall weather.
.. A return to warmer and drier weather in a few days will encourage both fishers and fire activity.
.. Hazy details and whispered reports of large fish in the Bakers' Hole region have surfaced. It's a bit early for the runner stampede but there are always a few early submarines to be had.
.. A couple of the neighbors split from the gulper grounds and fished up the estuary of the Madison Arm. Several large fish were hooked and two "respectable" sorts were captured on smart phone portraits.
.. Both the Firehole River and the Madison River have cooled down and folks are even fishing on the Firehole River.
.. The best catching opportunities are in the morning and employ the ever faithful soft hackle variants.
.. Portions of the Madison River around 7-Mile Bridge will experience temporary closure as burnout activities continue. Visiting Barns Holes is restricted and occasionally closed.
.. The current cooling should last for another day or so and then a return to warm and dry conditions is anticipated. Be sure to plan your fishing activities with the fire and smoke conditions in mind.
