Welcome Winter

Happy Winter Solstice!

It feels like it’s been winter for six weeks already but technically we’re just getting started with today being the actual first day of winter.

It’s a statement Winter Solstice with the current temperature at -21. It’ll warm up to -20 at some point today before plummeting to -30 tonight. There is a Winter Storm Warning in effect until 11 AM today and a Wind Chill Warning in effect until 11 AM on Friday. Wind Chill currently has the “feels like” temp at -46.

I’ve decided to work from home today as our shop heater only operates in temperatures above -10.

And while there is no shortage of chatter about this apocalyptic cold snap there is plenty of reason for optimism, namely that we’re in desperate need of a good, old-fashioned winter and thus far that is exactly what we’re getting.

The cold and snowy weather definitely has its challenges, but the hope is that it’ll all be worthwhile when we’re in the midst of our summer season enjoying steady flows of cold water.

The other big reason for optimism on this cold and snowy Wednesday? It’s the aforementioned Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year. Now begins the march towards spring and summer with the days getting a little bit longer each and every day.

Long hot days and warm summer nights will be here before we know it.

So curse the cold if you must as you shovel snow with numb hands, but as you do so, keep in mind that this is the cycle, the way it’s meant to be. The cold and snow serve a purpose, as has been the case for millennia.

Winter’s beauty paves the way for those summer days we all look forward to, when we can start bitching about how HOT it is!

And besides all that, it looks like we’re headed for a warmup as temps climb back into the high 30’s and even low 40’s starting on Saturday. You could be back on the water in a matter of days.

Cheers to Winter!

Back to the Roots

I had the pleasure of spending a couple of weeks in Michigan last month and while I’m sure it would’ve worked out either way, the onset of winter weather here in Montana in early November made it the perfect time to close up shop for a spell.

My wife and I make semi-regular trips back to Michigan but it’s generally a quick trip for a specific event. It’s been quite some time since I’ve had the chance to settle in and get the extended back to the roots Michigan experience but that’s exactly what I was able to do this time around.

With my little sister’s November wedding acting as the impetus I started formulating a plan months ago, knowing it would be the perfect time to take some time off from work at the season’s end.

My original plan included debaucherously rabble rousing with friends, deer camp, fish camp and most importantly, the rare opportunity for our dispersed family to be together for a joyous occasion celebrating a much welcomed blessed union.

Circumstances conspired against the deer camp, opening the door for several extra opportunities for sibling shenanigans as well as the aforementioned debaucherous rabble rousing. Fish camp happened in spite of some challenging winter conditions and it did end up being a long enough stay that I was more than ready to return home and settle back into reality.

Of course the saying goes that you can’t go home again meaning a return to a place from your past won’t be the same as it was, likely leading to disappointment and disillusionment, something we’ve all experienced at one time or another, but this wasn’t that. Quite the contrary as a matter of fact.

A couple of years ago a friend sent me a picture of the house I grew up in. It was in rough shape. Peeling paint, sagging roof, cloudy windows…basically a complete state of disrepair and deterioration. Definitely NOT the house I remember. Seeing that picture hit me hard at the time. The actual physical structure was deteriorating but it seemed an appropriate metaphor as everything that had made that place what it was is gone. Those lives that created my lived experience are gone from there. It’s all memories now. I didn’t like seeing it but a crumbling structure has no power over the memories of the past.

While I was back there I spent a day driving around the old haunts with my older sister who hadn’t been back in decades. We drove by that house as well as the starter home we lived in prior to the time our parents bought their dream house on the lake where they would spend the next couple of decades before both taking their respective last breaths in that house in the early 2000’s.

The structural deterioration continues and I have no need to return to that physical address again. In this sense it is true that you can’t go home again but aside from this one place and this experience, my fondness for the larger sense of “home” persists and I cherish the time I am able to spend there.

The geography has a pull on me. Particularly Lake Michigan and the Pere Marquette River on which I spent countless hours over the years indulging my passion for fly fishing and in so doing, laying the groundwork for our eventual move to Montana.

But it’s not geography that makes the place, it’s the people that make the place so hanging out with the special souls I’ve known for the majority of my life, doing our best to recreate memories of life circa 1987 was an experience that left me with nothing but happiness (and maybe a hangover or two) and no hint of disillusionment.

Seeing my little sister doing her thing, living her best life, independent of and free from the sometimes debilitating power of the trauma of the past is heart-warming and makes things right with the world. I had the honor of walking her down the aisle and giving her away which is something I’ll always cherish.

Spending that time with my family, with my sisters and nieces and nephews in particular, as well as with the best friends I will ever have, defeats any despair connected to crumbling structures or poison from the past. So I would argue that you can in fact go home again. “Home” is made of memories, old and new, and those aren’t going anywhere.

A time will come when the people that make the place are gone. Should that happen while I’m still around I’ll likely not return to the physical place but until then I will return anytime I can to sit on a Lake Michigan beach or at a Muskegon Lumberjacks game with my wife and friends and family. I will return to float the cold currents of the Pere Marquette River and I will return to sit in the fall woods waiting for a trophy Whitetail to pass by. I’ll return to hang out with best friends Pub Crawling the past and the present and I’ll return to overindulge until 4 AM, reminiscing about the past while making future plans.

None of it is HOME. All of it is LIFE well lived in my estimation.

Home is in the daily. Presently in Helena and Wolf Creek MT, engaged in the present, contemplating the future and Embracing the Arc.

Winter Colors!

The calendar says three weeks until winter. The weather conditions have gotten a substantial jump on that.

For all intents and purposes we’ve been experiencing winter conditions throughout the month of November and there doesn’t seem to be any end in sight. There have been some swings in temps ranging from 30’s and 40’s to single digits but we haven’t seen a sustained warming trend in over a month as evidenced by the snow on the ground, most of which arrived in early November.

Mind you Wolf Creek Angler resides in the shadows all winter long so while those areas receiving exposure to sunlight are now clear of snow, it seems as though it’s here for the duration at WCA.

Whether we were ready to settle in to winter or not this trend bodes well for our state and our sport. Snowpack looks better than it has at this point in the season than I can recall in recent memory.

Angling traffic at the moment is all but non-existent. I expect sunshine and 30’s, whenever that happens, will elicit a response and bring some traffic back to the river but in the meantime the fish have been getting a well-deserved rest from the pressure as they settle in to winter mode.

Flows are currently in the 3400 CFS range with water temps hovering right around 35 degrees. We’ll see highs in the high 20’s and overnight lows in the single digits for the next week or so which should keep things relatively quiet. The upcoming weekend looks tolerable with plenty of sunshine but given the cold temps it doesn’t take much of a breeze to drop that wind chill to uncomfortable (and unsafe) levels.

If you plan on getting out count on fighting frozen guides with frozen fingers and look to dredge the slow depths with scuds and sows. Pill Poppers, Pink Amex or Rainbow Czechs paired with Tailwater or Soft Hackle sows should be all you need on the bug front. Of more importance than bug selection will be having the right cold weather gear. If you’re going to “forget the forecast” you need to dress accordingly. Layer up and pay special attention to keeping your hands warm. Good gloves are essential but nobody like fishing in gloves so just make sure you have them at the ready. Releasing a fish can be quite an ordeal in winter conditions so make sure you have hand warmers and dry confines for those freezing hands after the release.

We’re stocked up with the best in Cold weather gear from Simms including piles of hats and gloves and layering pieces. While you’re at it, pick up a ColdWeather shirt or guide flannel or hoodie to add to those layers.

Wading conditions are favorable throughout the top section with very little shelf ice to contend with at this point. Launches are clear for the time being though it looks like a chance for some accumulation today and tonight.

Shop hours have been sporadic to say the least over these past few weeks and will likely continue to be so as dictated by weather conditions. We do have limited lodging available for the time being for $99/night plus tax. Please call for availability and also make sure you call ahead to confirm we’re here if you’re planning on stopping in to gear up on your way to the river.

We’ll be closed tomorrow (Friday) with meetings to attend in Butte and should be here Saturday morning until around noon.

Our online store has been busy this past week with Christmas shopping fully underway. Gift ideas coming soon but you can’t ever go wrong with a Wolf Creek Angler Gift Card in ANY amount good for ANYTHING and EVERYTHING we sell.

Enjoy winter’s Cold Quiet as you dream of those hot summer days on the water.

Back in the Game

Things have taken a quiet turn this first week of November as is usually the case.

Snow is falling and as of this morning the majority of our lodging is winterized and closed until spring. We’ve got three units open and available this week but those too will be unavailable starting next week.

Today would be an ok day to fish. Tomorrow looks to be better with partial sun returning and a high near 40.

Things deteriorate over the weekend with gusty winds and rain and snow likely. Winter conditions starting on Monday with snow, highs in the teens and lows in the single digits. It looks like a bit of a warming trend towards the end of next week as we climb back near 30 but it seems as though this idyllic fall season is finally about to come to a close.

This has, without a doubt, been one of the most pleasant and lengthy autumns in recent memory and as luck would have it I was able to get out and enjoy much of it with a more relaxed schedule in the shop and help when I needed it.

The wife and I did our annual trip to Whitefish and were treated to several days of amazing autumn weather. We checked out some new breweries, hiked some areas we’d never hiked before, took in a Helena vs Flathead High volleyball match and basically spent three days doing not much of anything other than enjoying fall in the Flathead.

Last week I spent Thursday and Friday on the Blackfoot with dear friends doing our annual fall streamer trip which up until this year had happened on the Yellowstone. After two amazing days on the Blackfoot, we’re planning on sticking with the current program going forward.

Having not spent a whole lot of time fun fishing this season it was so good to get out and do a trip like this, tuning everything out but fishing for two days straight. No emails, no phone calls and no tough decisions aside from which streamer to throw and whether or not it was time for another beer.

Obviously owning a fly shop and being an outfitter keeps one focused on fishing but it can also have the effect of making you feel somewhat unplugged from the energy created when you’re able to actually engage in this thing that for me evolved from a pastime to a passion. Not taking the time to reconnect can have extremely deleterious effects on one’s psyche but at the same time stepping back in after a season absent of fun fishing made this getaway all that much more enjoyable and significant to the point where I came away feeling reinvigorated and back in the game.

Note to self – take more time to fish from here on out.

On Monday I did my final guide trip of the season on the Missouri and had my best day in years with the stars aligning to deliver non-stop action. A breezy day for sure but when its 60 plus degrees on Halloween and you’re netting fish all day long it definitely makes fighting the wind more tolerable.

It’s been a great season here at WCA and while we welcome winter we’re excited for 2023 with some BIG things we’re working on that we can’t wait to share with you.

The shop will be open somewhat sporadically all winter long but while I’m reflecting on this season I just want to take this opportunity to thank all of you who shopped with us, fished with us, stayed with us or simply followed us on social media in 2022. Another great season about to be in the books thanks to all of you.

Tight Lines!

Autumn Magic on the MO

These are the autumn days we were dreaming of as summer lingered on.

Chilly mornings. Heavy dew on the grass. The morning sun warming the soul.

Blue bird skies with a burst of oranges, yellows and reds mixed with plenty of green still holding on.

The afternoon heat quickly dissipates as the sun drops below the horizon.

Evening chill and an early shroud of darkness.

Rising fish breaking the glassy autumn stillness.

Autumn beasts lurking below

It’s October Magic on the MO

Late September on the MO

Summer heat has returned this week with temps back in the 80’s and near 90 tomorrow. Overnight lows in the 40’s and low 50’s have made for cool mornings so despite the daytime highs being a little warmer than what we’d like right now it still definitely feels like fall. More seasonable conditions will resume on Thursday with temps dropping back into the 60’s and 70’s with cloudy skies and a daily chance for some precipitation through the weekend.

Traffic has dropped off for us a bit this week after last week’s guide trip marathon but there are a fair number of folks getting out and enjoying these summer-like afternoons and the upcoming change in conditions will likely bring out the streamer set as well as those in search of fall dry fly action. We’re not expecting much on that front just yet but it won’t be long. While you wait for the fall BWOs you can bide your time with terrestrials, October Caddis and those dreaded pseudos.

Nymphing continues to be your best bet for numbers with sows, scuds and zebras getting it done and crayfish patterns still providing some solid action on the right days.

Conventional wisdom dictates small leechy patterns on intermediate lines if you want to try your hand at the streamer game and we’ve undoubtedly been selling plenty of Buggers, Thin Mints, Balanced Leeches, Pine Squirrel Leeches, Polar Leeches etc and getting some glowing reports. However, it’s not conventional wisdom that made us THE Streamer shop on the MO so you won’t be surprised to hear that we’ve been defying convention by running big bugs and heavy lines, searching out the water that allows it and finding plenty of success (and plenty of weeds)ourselves.

We keep the streamer bins as full as the supply chain allows so be sure to make us your first stop of the day for the best streamer selection on the MO and a variety of specialty lines and leaders to fit your preferred technique.

We’re down to the last of the summer gear but we’re fully stocked with cool weather essentials like Simms WCA Challenger hoodies and guide flannels as well as a full selection of hats, gloves and layering and of course waders and boots from Simms, Redington and Korkers. We stock Simms G3 and Freestone waders as well as Redington Sonic Pro waders and Escape wading pants.

Our fall rod and reel sale has been a huge success and is still going strong.

Our lodging is busy but not SOLD OUT on most nights. Give us a call for last minute reservations. Our guide calendar has peaked as we start to close out the 2022 campaign. We have openings throughout October and despite having had our busiest guide week of the fall last week we feel like the best fishing of the fall is still ahead of us.

It’s definitely the home stretch with the winter’s quiet looming but that being said it’s currently 80 degrees and sunny with clear blue skies above and a symphony of fall color….it’s the best of fall fly fishing in Montana. Get out there!

We’re open at 7 AM daily for all of your Missouri River fall fly fishing needs.

Autumn Creeping In

46 degrees this morning on the MO with intermittent drizzle and a northerly breeze. Feels like fall to me!

Piles of streamers leaving the bins today as our friends from the annual Schultz Outfitters trip brave the elements and the weeds and hunt for those prized fall browns….Michigan style. Go Big or Go HOME.

Today’s taste of quintessential fall weather will be short-lived as we even out in the 60’s for the next few days and back up into the high 70’s early next week but the overnight low dipping into the 30’s tonight should definitely make for a chilly start tomorrow.

Waders and boots and raingear are starting to move and I expect we’ll move some hats and gloves over the next day or two before the heat returns.

Our Annual Autumn Rod and Reel Sale is going strong with 25% Off all rods and reels and 30% off when you buy any rod, reel and line.

It’s our busiest guide week of the fall with the aforementioned Schultz crew here and it seems everyone keyed on late September this year. Always a safe bet for the start of the fall season but as I’ve said in the past, for my money – October is where it’s at. And it just so happens that we’ve got a fair amount of availability for lodging and guide trips should you decide to give October (and even early November) a try.

Dry fly fishing is not at its best as we await fall BWO’s though there is enough action between terrestrials, callibaetis and the occasional October Caddis to keep it interesting.

Nymphing is the go to with sows, zebras and crays leading the charge but don’t be afraid to try something outside of that realm. Purple weight flies, Rainbow Czechs and Frenchies paired with a Little Green Machine or any old PT might just get it done.

Streamers are getting eaten with consistency for those willing to brave the weed mass. Seek out the cleanest water you can and maybe opt for the intermediate versus the full sink. Small leechy patterns are getting it done but the big stuff works too. Roll through those streamer boxes until you find something that moves them. Sparkle Minnows, Dirty Hippies, Baby Gongas, Mini Dungeons, Thin Mints, Swim Coach, Peanut Envy, Autumn Splendor, JJ’s….fish what you like. Hit the banks, hit the buckets, hit the riffles. They could be anywhere.

Cold dark mornings typically translate to later starts though the low light morning hours could definitely work in your favor. We’re starting most of our guide trips around 8 AM so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to get out ahead of the crowds. That, or wait em’ out and play clean up once the guide boats move on.

We’re sticking with 7AM open for them time being but that will get later as morning light and temperature conditions dictate.

Stop in for shuttles, bugs, hats, gloves, waders, boots, boat rentals and much much more. We are your Missouri River Autumn Fly Fishing Destination, a one-stop shop for anything and everything you may need.

Back At It

What a difference a week makes!

A week ago we were looking for ways to pass the time with the late summer lull in full effect. The days in the shop tend to drag during the lull, especially after 9 am when you often don’t see much in the way of customers for the rest of the day. A few folks stopping in out of curiosity or maybe asking for change for the pop machine or directions to the river. Suffice it to say, we haven’t been setting any retail records over these past few weeks but the switch flipped this week and we’re back in the thick of it.

A full house and a pile of guide trips going out most days these next couple of weeks. It’s taken a minute to get back into the swing of things but we’re there now and ready to finish this season strong.

Not much has changed on the river since last week. It’s still primarily a nymphing game but there are some surface opportunities as well with terrestrials and the occasional callibaetis and October Caddis which may be few and far between but our trout LOVE them so don’t be afraid to invest some time in an October Caddis dry/dropper rig.

Weeds are definitely creating challenges for the sub-surface set but you’ve likely dealt with much worse. Check those rigs often and keep em’ clean. Trout prefer NO SALAD with their meal!

Weeds aside, the water is in great shape with flows holding steady in the 4200 CFS range and temps on the drop (currently 63 degrees).

Smoke from wild fires in the region has been pretty thick this past week for the first time this season but seems to have started to dissipate today. Cooler weather trends ahead with a chance for precipitation most days should continue to cool the water temps while the fishing heats up.

There’s nothing like fall fishing on the MO. Chilly mornings and evenings, fall colors popping and big browns on the prowl. Get out there!

We’re open at 7 AM daily with everything you need for your day on the water. Hats, Gloves, Sun protection, the best streamer selection on the MO and the sale of the season happening NOW on all rods and reels.

Lodging is busy but plenty of last minute options available most nights. We can’t really say the same thing where guide trips are concerned. It’s a busy month on the MO with many of our summer guides who moonlight as educators during the off season back to work, shrinking our guide pool substantially. It never hurts to call and ask but September is pretty well full. We do have plenty of openings in October though which in my opinion is the better month to fish but that’s neither here nor there. Give us a shout if you’d like to set something up for October or early November.

Another Summer Season in the Books

The calendar still says summer. The weather at the moment definitely concurs but Labor Day has come and gone and with it Summer Season Number Nine at Wolf Creek Angler.

Summer angling crowds have been absent for weeks now and the river has been busy with rec floaters enjoying one last summer fling before it’s back to the fall grind.

Things have been on the lonely side these past few weeks for those of us in the fly shops but that’s about to change as we close the books on the summer season and make the shift to fall. It appears as though it will continue to feel like summer for the time being with a taste of what’s on the horizon coming Friday with expected daytime highs in the 50’s. The heat returns for the weekend but we’re definitely in the transition from sweltering heat to cooler days and nights. The leaves are turning, ever so slowly and the vibe has turned from Endless Summer to everything fall.

Fall sports are either already or very soon to be underway and many have already put away the fishing gear for the season, making the switch from hunting heads to hunting horns. Big Game Season is here which means the pursuit of deer and elk for many but for others Big Game Season means the pursuit of monster browns on the prowl as the fall spawning season gets underway.

I spent Saturday afternoon in Missoula sweating through a convincing Griz win for their season opener. Sweating aside – it felt GREAT to be back in the stands watching football again. It’s the time of year when hopes are high for all of our favorite teams with a clean slate from which to start. It’s hard to be anything other than optimistic prior to that first snap, even if you’re a Detroit Lions fan. This could be our year!!

September and October are among my favorite months of the year. I love everything about the fall and find myself savoring these autumn months more and more as the years pass by. Many of you share this love for autumn as evidenced by our bookings for September. It’s going to be a busy month on the MO but at this point availability for lodging and guides in October looks good.

You simply can’t beat autumn days on the MO. As those cooler temps begin to take hold and our water temps start to drop you can expect fishing to improve dramatically. Terrestrials will continue to be your go to for surface action while the nymphing and streamer fishing start to heat up. Folks have already started asking about BWO’s…it typically doesn’t happen until mid-October or later depending on the weather but we’ll certainly keep you posted. A few Callibaetis here and there for the hard core DFO and a great time to throw an October Caddis.

It was a fun summer and a hot one at that. And so we bid farewell to Summer 22. We’ll miss those green hills and long days and warm nights but we shall not mourn summer’s passing. Instead we embrace the change and welcome this season of the harvest.

We hope to see you on the MO this fall.

Summer Fading Fast

It’s hard to believe but August is already coming to a close. Summer 22 is about to be but a memory as we turn the page and start to look towards fall fishing.

It’s been one of the hotter summers in recent memory with the number of days above 90 degrees far outpacing the average. We’ll see 90 today but cooler temps and maybe even some rain are on the way for the remainder of this week.

We’ll see highs in the high 70’s and low 80’s all week with a good chance for rain showers and possible thunderstorms starting tomorrow and running through Friday. Overnight lows will continue to dip into the low 50’s which should provide some relief to our stressed waters around the region. Fingers crossed that we get some precipitation and hopefully avoid any serious fire activity.

We anticipate solid fishing this week with the change in conditions, especially on the days with cloud cover which we should see starting tomorrow. The hopper bite continues to be strong on the right days with the hopper/ant rig outperforming the hopper/dropper rig but both have been effective. A single hopper or ant also gets it done for those who are working to improve their casting proficiency but perhaps aren’t quite there yet.

We’ve had better luck on smaller hoppers in the #12 – #14 range but don’t be afraid to mix it up and try the #8’s and #10’s. Tan Donkey Kong and Morrish and More or Less hoppers in Tan, Peach and Yellow have been money. Trail with a Stealth Ant and work the banks as well as the mid-river riffles.

Tricos have been hit or miss but there have definitely been some stellar days. Those opportunities should persist into early September.

Sow bugs, Green Machines, PT’s, black or olive zebra midges, weight flies in purple or gold, Peep Shows, Frenchies and Zirdles have all been good nymphing options though weeds are making things challenging so be mentally prepared for that.

The river remains quiet for the time being. Most traffic is concentrated at the dam as you might expect with most opting for the coldest and cleanest water but as those water temps hopefully start to drop a bit this week it might be worth your while exploring lower river options.

Rec traffic has been heavy, especially on the weekends but that’s all about to change as the world shifts out of summer mode and back to the grind.

Angling traffic will increase next month. It’s one of our busier Septembers as far as guide trips go with folks looking to get the jump on fall fishing. We’ve got several large groups coming in for annual trips starting the second week of the month so last minute bookings in September will be tough to fill but October is pretty wide open at this point if you’re looking to make plans for a fall pilgrimage to the MO.

With the days getting shorter and things hopefully cooling down soon we’re going back to opening at 7 AM this week. End of Summer Sale happening now with 40% OFF ALL SUMMER GEAR including cool T’s from Yakoda and all WCA summer logo wear. Annual Fall Rod and Reel SALE coming SOON.

Enjoy these late summer days on the MO.
