The slough didn't have much for bugs or risers this morning. Sunny and bright, with heavy Saturday mid-morning incoming. We moved to a different Missouri River tributary.
Drove up and they were doin' it in a shallow riffle for over an hour. All pigs. Hangers, Cahills, emergers. Any pmd. A foot of water. Quite possibly, the hottest flat in Montana at the time. 18-21 inches, all of 'em. Some came up in the evening shadow for a couple hours or so too, but in the slower, deeper water around and behind the weed beds. Lots of getting weeded. More big fish today than the whole trip.
