River is in runoff with chocolate water . The forecast is to peak at 17,000 next weekend so it will be a few weeks till we can get back on.
St Regis River Report May 12 2024
The Regis looks pretty sweet right now with very clear waters and a moderate flow. we are seeing quite a few Salmon Flies and lots of Skwalas . The Regis opens this saturday the 18th . If floating watch for the tree across the river at Two mile off ramp. You can drag a raft around but be on the lookout.
Clark Fork River May 12 2024
Wow … what a spring. Finally the major skwala and mayflies matched fishable waters . We had plenty of 30 fish days. For the lucky few there will be great conditions perhaps thru Monday. Then a big slug of melt will arrive and we will have to see if it clouds the waters. We were on the water nearly every day this spring.
Clark Fork Report May 3rd 2024
River viz is great for this time of year… Purple Haze most of the day will work. We try March Browns, Adams and Skwalas in tandem with the Haze but guess what. They are taking the Purple haze in a size 12 or 14. Have fun. Steve

Clark Fork River April 16th 2024
We experienced a huge hail and heavy rain Sunday evening. The river has jumped up and quite off color (brown) as a result. usually clears in three or so days so I will update as it happens. We should remain fishable for another five weeks or so after things clear.
St Regis river update April 2 2024
The Regis will open to fishing May 18th this year. We have seen lots of fish staging at the mouth so I expect the first week to be quite productive. We do walk and wade trips along the Regis with our resident guide Steve ! If you choose to float I highly recommend you scout the river as there is a LARGE pine totally across the river at two mile. Call the shop for details.
Clark Fork Report April 2 2024
Two boats out yesterday in fine weather found the fish on Skwalas. The sun has to get on the river banks about 1pm then game on. Danner reports two of the biggest fish of the season so far . The big Bows like to put on a show by jumping which we only seem to see in spring before runoff. Still lots of time to get out before then. We do have a few days of rain but back to clearer weather for the weekend.
Clark Fork report March 22 2024
Fished Dry to Regis in fine weather with plenty of sun and 50 degree day. Fount plenty of Blue Wing Olives emerging under the foam lines. Be sure to pay attention to the eddy waters and fish the drys . A few stone flys but mostly on the sunny side in later afternoon. Spent most of our time nymphing a pats and a mix of bottom nymphs. Turned maybe a dozen.
