Little Missouri Fly Fishing

Thanks for the report Mike.  Looks like the river is still adding to the lake according to the Langley reading.

This afternoon at 4:00 pm and the lake at 540.28 feet, they closed the bunger valve after only 1 day of flow. GO FIGURE!!  Water temperature behind my house is 58 degrees.👏👏👏👍. The river needed that flush, just not sure why they stopped when they did? 🤔🤔.

At 9:00 this morning they opened the bunger valve. The water temperature at the park was 64 degrees yesterday so the river needed flushing with cold water. The lake had risen to almost 541 feet. If they pull it back to the 538 level it will take about 6 days of bunger running. We will just have to see what happens. My thanks to the Corp for holding water thru the Memorial Day holiday, lots of people got to catch fish 🎣!! 

No, I haven't forgotten about you, after 7 days the bunger is still closed. However, better keep a close eye before coming, Langley came up 2 feet after the last rain and all that water will bring the lake up. If they are trying to keep it at 538 for the work crews, they could open the valve at any time now.

Thanks again for all your efforts Mike, you are appreciated.

After only 30 hours and pulling the lake down 1/2 foot the Corp closed the bunger valve. It was actually great, they flushed the river with cold 🥶 water. This open then closed routine May get hard for me to keep up with!!  Guess they are trying to keep the lake steady at about 538. 

At any rate, the river is wadeable at this time.

Thanks Mike.

At 10:00 am this morning, with no warning, the Corp opened the bunger valve. It's been a great 11 days of fishing. Kinda glad they did, the river needed flushed with cold water, however it was still at around 60 degrees up and down the river.

Gordon... Have heard of Lone Star Fly Fishers!  That's about it!  Anymore info about LSFF would be great.  Thanks

Gordbo, I think you're right. I going to try to get back up there in the next week or so if they don't open the bunker wide open.
