Flows at Gallatin Gateway are 1170 C.F.S. The Gallatin has remained clear and it is fishing as well as any river in the state right now. There are consistent hatches of Pale Morning Duns and Yellow Sallies in the morning with good caddis activity in the evening. Parachute patterns have been the most productive patterns on the Gallatin, however don't be afraid of trying the good old fashion attractor dry fly patterns. The hatch activity has been a little slow during the heat of the day but the fish will still take the dry even if the hatch activity is slow during the mid afternoon. Dry dropper rigs are another great way of taking fish during the slower hatch activity periods. Get out and enjoy the Gallatin right now, the dry fly fishing is great and the fish are fighting hard.
Fly Pattern Suggestions: Royal Trude #8-12, Royal Stimulator #8-12, Peacock Trude #8-12, Bloom's Parachute Caddis #12-14, Parachute Adams #12-16, Yellow Stimulator #12-14, Elk Hair Caddis #12-14, Royal Wulff #12-14, Peacock Anatomay #10-12, Hot Wire Caddis #10-12.
