The Helena area is kicking off to a great start this new year! It has been really cold and we have been making some great Ice. One guide trip this week went great out on Canyon Ferry Lake. Landed 7 beautiful rainbow trout by lunchtime. The trout bite should continue to be great for the next two months. The perch fishing has just kicked off. Finally you are able to make it out to the perch grounds on Canyon Ferry Lake. We will be out there all weekend on guided trips so we should have a better report by monday. Holter Lake has been on fire for perch. Not much ice there yet, but just enough. Keep up to date on our page and I will give you the most current report from our Outfitting service. See ya out there!
