Report conditions: 89 cfs · ▼ 11.2% 24h · ↓60% median
East Gallatin is in excellent shape with flows down 11% over 24 hours to 88.8 cfs—well below median but prime for wade fishing. Water is clear and caddis are thick as expected mid-June, with Yellow Sally stoneflies still active. Focus nymph rigs in deeper runs and watch for surface activity as caddis emerge throughout the day.
