Past outlook · Sep 30–Oct 7

This outlook’s window has closed. It is the most recent one we have for this water.

Silver Creek is running low and clear heading into early October, with water holding at 55 degrees as of September 29. Pre-spawn browns are becoming aggressive while others hold on redds, making it a good time to focus on actively feeding fish. Baetis and Mahogany duns should peak between 10 am and 2 pm, with October Caddis and Callibaetis also present. Note that Kilpatrick Bridge and Preserve east side access remain closed through January 4 for construction and dredging; contact Blaine County or the Silver Creek Alliance for details.
