We are so close for this river to be back on the menu. The Stillwater River is low and clear. Baetis hatches aren’t showing up in strong abundance yet but should be right around the corner. This is a bit of a drive for us so we usually wait until the summer months to target it.
The Month Ahead:
The fishing will improve into early May until run off arrives in late May.
Long Term Fishing Forecast:
The Stillwater is a relatively cold river and isn’t as productive as some other fisheries in the region. April will result in better results but we wouldn’t recommend a long drive to get there until later in the spring when water temps produce more active fish.
