Flow wise things are certainly looking up on Montana’s Missouri River which is currently flowing @ 8300ish CFS more than some of the regional experts expected. With the Inflow @ Canyon Ferry running @ 18000 CFS the Reservoir is now approaching 90% full its safe to say the snow melt coupled with recent rain in the Missouri River headwaters has been a game changer for long term Missouri River Fly-Fishing Conditions.We are very stoked about that.
