{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Tributaries to fish near Craig, MT

Alex,
Sorry I'm late to the game.  Don't waste your time on the Dearborn this time of year.  It fishes well early in the season right after runoff and then goes pretty dead.  Plus access is not the best.  Depending on where you are staying, Helena, Craig, Great Falls, you have a number of options.  As was already mentioned Little Prickly Pear fishes well, but usually later in the year.  The Little Blackfoot just over the continental divide is a good bet as outlined.  Belt Creek is a nice stream and it's a little east of Great Falls.  The North Fork of the Blackfoot leading into the Bob Marshall Wilderness is one of my favorite if you want to head down Hwy 200. 
I am from MT and most recently lived in Helena from 2006-2013.  Got a buddy who guides the Mo', so maybe you'll get to fish with him (Eric Mondragon).  Great dude and a hell of a stick!  Let me know if you want more info and I'll see what I can do.
Hope I'm not too late.

Dee to fish the Missouri and GlacierNP for 9 days starting Saturday. I know the 'Mo gets super crowded so I'm curious if there are any worthwhile tribs to wade up and fish. The Deerborn looks promising. Montana has some of the best wading access laws in the country so private access shouldn't be an issue. Thanks again- y'all always set me straight. -Alex
