It feels like July out on the river, not because of the weather or the shorter days. Mostly it’s just all the traffic on the river. Some of the river closures have been lifted around the state, but people are still flocking to The MO. Maybe it’s just the good fishing… read more →

Jase, a future shop employee in training, started off the day with this behemoth Rainbow Trout. Him and the Bossman did a morning float from the Dam to Wolf Creek Bridge yesterday.

With the official start of September we are looking forward to the potential of some cooler weather and better fishing conditions on The MO. It looks like we have a hot day or two left, but the longer forecast is showing a break in the heat. Expect some highs into the 70’s! Last night as.. read more →

William Brann, Wild Bill, Bag Limit Bill, One eye’ Bill, Billy Bass, Buffalo Bill, Billy Bear, Bill, Billy, or whatever you want to call him. Just know this guy seeks out the large ones. This fish should be for next weeks Hump Day Trout, but I couldn’t wait to get this slab of a brown.. read more →

It’s finally Friday! We have a big holiday weekend kicking off today which should send a lot of recreational floaters out to the Craig area. Usually this weekend marks the end of the Missouri River bikini hatch and the start of our late summer/fall fishing season. As the waxing and waining hatch of bikini sums.. read more →
