Missouri River Fishing Report 11.27.24
All good in this neighborhood.
Water temps falling to 43F. Water flows 3080cfs.
Swingers are the most common angler on the water this month. Will have some college kids and adults this weekend. Brawl of the Wild complete with State winning again. Hunting for the big animals winding down. A bit warmer this weekend with seasonable weather greeting us post Turkey Day.
We have lodging open at Craig Trout Camp for a quick weekend getaway here in Craig. You may be hungry though, slim food options. Cascade has food nightly at the Driftwood and the Angus. You can look up Lazy I in Wolf Creek with Saturday and Sunday hours. Prewitt Creek has the Missouri River Inn open about noon-9 daily. Do not know about the holiday though. Call ahead for any hours or service allowances. Look for additional lodging here at CraigLodging.com
Swingers loving the Skagit System coupled with medium wight sink tips. RIO IMOW tips, SA Skagit TC Tips, and all the leaders, the best spey line selection in Craig, and info too. Leeches and flashy small streamers are the gig. Come on by for the last minute updates in this fishing regard. Flows are low, find your heaven on the Mo.
Nymphers are attached to the winter program. A bobber, a split shot, a pink top fly, a sowbug. Find deeper darker water along with slow winter runs. Row around til you find them. If on shore, keep the depth near the bottom. Change locales after you have exhausted the depth game. Peretty advantageous for the wade anglers as the flows are low enough to see the structures. Seek, and you shall find.
Dry fly guys? Bleak. Midge morning show, or evening show.
Strippers? Oh yeah. Go deep. High and bright sun will not allow the trout hto frequent those thinner water locations. Find some structure and fish it. Again, great wade fishing levels allow you to wander on shore or otherwise.
Fly Shop open all weekend long. Tomorrow Thanksgiving hours 8-Noon. Black Friday 8-5. Saturday and Sunday 8-5.
