Meadow to Canyon: Bozeman's Gallatin Trout Run 11.2.26

A Rivers Edge report for the Gallatin River near Bozeman, Montana, dated November 2, 2026, lists flows at 465 CFS near Gallatin Gateway. It says fishing has been best later in the morning and through the afternoon, noting that wintering fish favor longer, deeper runs. The update also mentions midges and baetis appearing on cloudy days and warns anglers to “Watch out for redds!” It recommends several fly options, including Pat’s Rubberlegs Camo, Silver Lightning Bug, Tungsten Wonder Nymph, Black Zebra Midge, and Parachute BWO. The report contrasts the area’s quiet meadow stretches with faster canyon water and suggests adjusting between nymphs, streamers, and dry flies as conditions change.
