<title>Fishing Roundup 8-8-08</title>
<category>Fishing</category><pubDate>Thu, 07 Aug 2008 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>The must-have fly patterns these days are assorted high-floating, low-floating and even sinking grasshoppers.

<category>Fishing</category><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jul 2008 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>On the rivers and streams, it could be an August to remember.

Flows are in the comfort range for trout to go on a late summer feeding spree.</description><link>http://fwp.mt.gov/news/article_7056.aspx</link>
