1120 CFS @ Kirby - The West Fork recently blew out, causing the Upper Madison to gain some color and size. Fishing below the West Fork could be difficult due to the runoff. Try heading upstream a ways, or even in between the lakes. These will likely be the best places to fish until the river starts to drop again.

863 CFS @ Kirby - The Upper Madison is fishing well right now. The flows are low for this time of year, but BWOs are out in good numbers and the March browns and caddis should be back this week with the warmer temperatures. Focus on fishing subsurface during the heat of the day, being sure to get your flies down quickly. Dry-fly fishing can be good in the evenings.

987 CFS @ Kirby - Flows on the Upper Madison have stayed pretty steady over the past few weeks, and the fishing has been good subsurface. Stonefly nymphs, along with some caddis pupa, are your best bets on the nymph side of things, while stripping streamers will also produce some fish.

897 CFS @ Kirby - While the flows on the Upper Madison have stayed manageable, the West Fork is starting to put some color in the river making it dirty not far below. Above that, the fishing has been pretty good mostly nymphing or stripping streamers in and around the bigger rocks on a short line. Dry fly fishing has been tough for now.
