Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Montana Suggestions - Help ASAP!

OK, my internal calendar is off, you might be before runoff, but local knowledge is your key.  This time of year, you are temperature dependent.

I would call one of the local fly shops, or at least someone local.
This is the height of runoff and a lot of rivers might be blown out. The spring creeks might be your best bet.

Hey everyone,

I've been going back and forth with myself for the last few weeks so figured I'd get some input from the group.  I'm heading out to Montana the beginning of next week with my dad for a couple days and then we're meeting up with a larger group.  We basically have Monday afternoon (we land at about 1:00 PM local time), and then all day Wednesday as free days.  We are staying in Bozeman Monday and Tuesday night, but need to be out in the Livingston area Wednesday afternoon.  My questions are....

- If you have approx. 5 hours of daylight on Monday afternoon after landing in Bozeman and needing to be back in Bozeman that evening, where are you heading to fish?  My original plan was the Gallatin just for proximity, but I'm debating just sacking up and driving another 45 minutes towards $3 bridge and the Slide Inn on the Madison.  My father has never fished out here and I would love for his first fish to be a memorable one.

- If you wake up Wednesday morning in Bozeman, and just need to be in Livingston at approx. 3-4 PM local time, where are you going to fish?

The agenda for the rest of our trip is:

- Tuesday: full guided day on the Madison 
- Thursday-Saturday: guided floats on the Yellowstone

I had thought about one of the Paradise Valley spring creeks for Wednesday, but didn't want to book another guide and wasn't sure how that would work out if they are super technical or if they're similar to our eastern spring creeks.  Really open to any suggestions.  We'll have a car so getting around will not be an issue.

Thanks in advance!
