Flows have stabilized for the time being and the river has gone from brown to green - you can get some fish in the soft water seams with rubberlegs, San Juan Worms, and lightning bugs. The best fishing is going to be in the Gallatin Canyon stretches above Gallatin Gateway and below Big Sky for the time being. These days can be really good out there as the higher flows keep a lot folks away from the river and many don't realize that it will have cleared up for a few days.
