On Sunday, I spent the day with some fishy women at our Women’s Intermediate class. We spent the entire day on and around a section of the East Gallatin. The morning was mostly spent answering questions, reading water, roll casting, and talking “bugs”. To take the “bug” thing a step further, I dunked a seine in the river and kicked up a few rocks for a nice sample of aquatic insects. (more…)
Good news for the Clacka Craft drift boat enthusiasts of Bozeman, The River’s Edge just became Bozeman’s only Clacka Craft pro shop. This allows us to sell new Clacka Craft drift boats and answer any questions about the boats that you may have. (more…)

As I sit here trying to come up with an accurate prediction about how the fishing and water conditions over the next couple of months will play out in our part of Southwest Montana, I know how the weatherman feels. No matter what I write, I am going to be wrong on some part of my predictions. Well it won’t be the last time, here goes.
As of Saturday March 21st, we have a new face to our already popular web site www.theriversedge.com. Some of you may have reached this blog through that site while others may have gotten here from somewhere else. If you have not had a look at our redesigned homepage and web store and please have a look and let us know what you think. (more…)
I just got back from my first saltwater fly fishing adventure earlier this month. Me and the rest of the guys at The River’s Edge closed down the fly shop for a week and headed South of the border to fish the world renowned flats of Ascension Bay. We stayed at Pesca Maya Fishing Lodge located about three hours South of Cancun in the Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve. From Pesca Maya you have the option of fishing either Ascension Bay (about 30 minutes by boat if the weather permits), or the Boca Paila Lagoons right behind the Lodge. We lucked out while we were down there and had great weather, allowing us the option of fishing Ascension Bay every day. It was mostly sunny with temps in the 80’s and relatively little wind…a welcome change from winter in Montana. (more…)
