Big Mo Trout Fishing

September Montana Fishing Report
September Montana Fishing Report On Monday I was out with long-time Grizzly Rider, Dan. We met early and headed up to the canyon of the Blackfoot. I started Dan off with a dry/dropper rig and he hooked up in the second run, but the fish came unbuttoned. Then it was quiet in the next several […]
