Your Constantly Updating Yellowstone Fly Fishing Resource
The Gibbon is still fishing – for the first time in a long time this late into the summer. Usually by mid-August, the river is far too warm and too low to be much to angler’s tastes. Due, however, to the massive and late runoff the region experienced, flows are still above average and the […]
Due to increased water flow and somewhat cooler temperatures, the Gibbon is fishing much later this year than in past summers. While the Gibbon below Norris is pretty darn warm and not the best fishing right now, above Norris is still fair game – very fair game. So for the next month, plan to do […]
The Gibbon River has been great fishing so far this year, and it is still good, although things are starting to slow just the tiniest bit. The fish are still around and hungry, they are simply getting a little pickier as the season wears on. Anglers need to be more careful with their presentation and […]
The Gibbon River has been fishing surprisingly well this summer. Since the end of June, fishing has been active with ants, beetles, hoppers, and attractors. Caddis in the evening have been fun and pleasant fishing. The pocket stretches have fish more than willing to rise to attractors in particular.
The upper meadows are best fished in […]
The Gibbon River continues to fish pretty well, though the bright days of summer are beginning to take a toll on the shallow beds in the meadow sections.
Today’s Gibbon pic is from the upper meadows near the Solfatara confluence, taken in the bright sun this weekend. The tree that Jess grabbed a great pic of […]
The Gibbon River continues to fish pretty well, and isn’t warming as much as its neighbor the Firehole on these sunny afternoons. Jess grabbed a great pic of a lone tree on the upper Gibbon last week in the evening light.
Meadow sections (above and below the falls) are still seeing PMDs and Gray Drakes, though […]
The Gibbon River has been fishing pretty darn well of late, and in fact we were on it yesterday afternoon and evening. We have had several reports of excellent fishing above the falls (canyon section) with little yellow stoneflies and caddis in the evenings. Meadow sections (above and below the falls) are still seeing PMDs […]
The Gibbon River has fished well again this past week - she’s not the glamorous destination that neighbors are to the west /southwest, but the river has a lot to offer this final week of the season. Last week’s snow seen above has melted away.
Flows have settled back down this week; flows this morning at […]
The Gibbon River has fished well again this past week, with the weekend storm even helping a bit. Flows bumped with the rain and snow, but not overwhelmingly so.
Flow data has not been available since the 19th - reports are (our visual included) that river bumped a bit but did not go off after the […]
The Gibbon River has improved again this past week - never mind the persistent low flows.
Flows remain quite low, today’s flow reading near Madison Junction was 71 cfs at 0600, with today’s average flow 93 cfs. This flow represents another new record low for today (the previous record set in 2004 on this day at […]
