Your Constantly Updating Yellowstone Fly Fishing Resource
The Gallatin River has been fishing beautifully of late. The river has cleared above Taylor, and the fish are more than anxious to feed on top after a long arduous runoff. The entire river has been busy with the salmonflies the past 10 days, and with the warmer weather it’s now dry fly time. Below […]
Running to the Park yesterday Jess and I were amazed by two things driving along the Gallatin on the way to West Yellowstone.
First, there were stoneflies out all through the canyon and above Big Sky, and in fact seemed to be most dense around mile marker 40. More than we’ve seen in a while, and covering […]
The Gallatin River has been fishing fairly well in the Park; she’s cleared dramatically in the past week or 10 days, and while still a bit high and somewhat cold, things have been coming around nicely. We’ve been on the upper river off the Bighorn trail a couple of times this season already. Stoneflies have […]

After a nice afternoon on the river yesterday we just couldn’t resist a run in the sun back to the Gallatin today (mid 40’s, moderate south wind, lots of sun). We slipped into one of our favorite runs that holds nice mid-afternoon sun, and Jake was into two very nice fish in the first 10 […]
Ran back up the Gallatin this afternoon just to enjoy the superb early spring day - it’s 49 this afternoon in Bozeman, and was a balmy 40 on the river at the Deer Creek Trailhead bridge. Working the pool / deep run upstream of the bridge today with an olive HE and Prince dropper beneath […]
Had a chance to run up the Gallatin for a few hours this afternoon, we were in the canyon about 10 miles below Big Sky, working a couple of deeper runs that are typically productive. We brought several spunky little bows to hand in hour and a half on big Hare’s Ears (olive more productive than […]
Made some good headway on our project today, and with the bright sun and temp. in the low 40’s by noon, it was time for quick run to the Gallatin. Fishing was predictably slow, with bumps now and then on dark stonefly nymphs in the deeper runs, and a couple of small fish to hand […]
The Gallatin (YNP) has been fishable again this past week, though skinny water still mandates very stealthy, careful dry fly fishing, and you’ve definitely got to walk a bit to find pools and runs deep enough to nymph.
Flows this morning (0645) are 399 cfs at Gallatin Gateway, with today’s average 417 cfs.
Nymphs and streamers certainly […]
