January has been cold in Montana and we finally have had a few days of warm weather. The warmer weather cleared some of the pack and slush ice from the Gallatin and the Lower Madison. I got a chance to get out for a few hours on Thursday and managed to dredge up a few rainbows on a Natural Zonker trailed with a pink soft hackle sow bug. The photo above is the first fish of the year. I was thankful that it was a rainbow and not a whitefish, which is a common fish on a soft hackle in the winter months.
