Milk River — Juneberg Bridge Nr Saco Mt Fishing Conditions
Updated 22 minutes ago · 3 attached data sensors
An active weather alert matters more than the fishing score
Check the active National Weather Service alert before deciding whether to go. The derived fishing score should not override official safety information.
Current streamflow is 81 cfs. Flow is falling by about 6% over 24 hours.
Wind should be relatively manageable for most fishing logistics.
- No authoritative species evidence is attached yet, so this page deliberately does not recommend specific fish species.
- No qualified multi-year monthly flow baseline is available yet, so the current flow cannot be labeled high or low for the season.
Current score drivers
- Streamflow is down 6% versus roughly 24 hours ago.
- Current wind is about 9 mph.
- Current precipitation probability is 2%.
- An active NWS alert is reducing the planning score.

Weather-based trip planning
Future scores primarily reflect forecast weather while using today's water conditions as the baseline. Recheck before the trip because river flow, tides and water temperature can change.
Confirmed fish targets
No authoritative species occurrence evidence is attached to this water yet, so the site deliberately does not recommend trout, bass or any other target merely because the temperature looks compatible.
Species recommendations require stored authoritative/editor-confirmed occurrence evidence. Broad temperature compatibility is not enough.

What this score means
This is a planning score based on measurable conditions. It is not a bite forecast and cannot guarantee catches. Missing facts are left unavailable rather than invented.
