Report conditions: 67 cfs · ▲ 11.4% 24h · ↓59% median
Lower Beaverhead is fishing well at low flows (67 cfs, 59% below median) with clear water and early PMD activity. Nymph fishing is prime with PMD emergers and split backs, while BWO patterns and the usual scuds/San Juan worms are producing. Watch for developing PMD surface activity during midday as the hatch gains momentum.
