Jefferson River, More of Big Hole River, Closed to Fishing

The Jefferson River and more sections of the Big Hole River closed to fishing on Saturday, August 3, due to low flows.

The full fishing closure will include the entire Jefferson River, as well as the Big Hole River from Dickie Bridge to the confluence with the Jefferson River. Flows in these areas dropped below fishing closure thresholds on Friday.

The rest of the Big Hole River upstream of Dickie Bridge is under hoot-owl restrictions, which prohibit fishing each day between 2 p.m. and midnight.

These restrictions will remain in effect until conditions improve.
