Paradise Valley Spring Creek Fishing Report
This Montana spring creek fishing report is valid January 31 through early March.
The spring creeks are definitely the best options in the area now due to warmer water. The problem is cold weather most days that makes fishing unattractive, followed by howling wind on the warm days. If you can find a happy medium, book a day. You should be able to do so on short notice, and rod fees are low this time of year.
Nymphing with midge pupae, BWO nymphs, and skinny San Juan Worms is the bread and butter tactic until early March. Some afternoon midge hatches are likely if you luck into a calm day around freezing. Swinging small, leechy streamers can also produce.
