We have had a great start to the season opener on the upper Beaverhead River. Flows are dropping out of Clark Canyon reservoir @ 580 cfs this morning. The upper Beaverhead has been all nymph fishing lately. You will not find any hatches but the nymphing has been good. We have been throwing sow bugs, scuds, and san juan worms. You will want to stay on the stretch above grasshopper creek since it is running muddy. You will find a bunch of wade anglers near the dam stretch. Once you get below High Bridge the crowds thin out.
