Your Constantly Updating Yellowstone Fly Fishing Resource
The Fall, despite the painfully low flows of the summer, is beginning to turn around a bit above highway 32. A guide friend was up early last week, and noted a few more baetis and some callibaetis, and thought things fished pretty well before noon when it got warm.
There is only one flow gauge on […]
Amazingly there’s some rain around today - we’ve awoken to clouds here in Bozeman, and checking the radar there’s a fair amount of rain around. The weather wizards are even suggested we have a 6 in 10 chance of rain this evening and tonight in Bozeman…..
Looks like from the radar that the rains early this […]
The Madison River in the Park is one of our favorites, and hallowed ground to many. Even though the Park released all restrictions on Park waters last week, we’re going to stick to our guns that you probably shouldn’t be fishing this water for another couple of weeks or whenever it cools off.
Our concerns are […]
We had a really nice day in the Park yesterday, fishing first the upper Gardner and then the upper Gibbon. Water temps were near 60 when we got started, and we turned lots of little rainbows on small hoppers and attractors, even a few bigger boys rolled on a yellow parachute hopper of Jake’s.
One of […]
There is some good news this week - overall cooler temperatures, lengthening nights, and believe it or not lower flows have helped fishing a bit in the sytem. The area is due some unseasonably warm weather in the next few days and that may rock the boat a bit….
Flows today at Island Park (0730) were […]
Now and then we come across a book that we think will have broad appeal to our friends and readers on the site, even though it’s not a fishing book. Here’s one of those books.
Merle’s Door highlights the fascinating and real life story of the author Ted Kerasote (National Outdoor Book Award winner) and the […]
The Bechler River’s status hasn’t changed a lot since last week - and with the warm temps on tap for the next few days fall still seems weeks away.
The shops and guides we spoke with today still aren’t running trips back here due to the lower water and the warm temps, though everyone is looking […]
Those of us watching and waiting for the brown trout run out of Lewis Lake will have to be patient - the Park will see very warm weather for the next few days. The Lewis otherwise is still in her late summer pattern.
Summer hatches have about run their course.. Dry-dropper and small hopper dropper combos […]
We just got back from the Park fishing several waters today - we’ll share pics and more about what & where tomorrow.
We had to be back in Bozeman for an event this evening, and had planned to leave the Park around 4 PM. We were fishing the upper Gibbon after lunch, and were really into […]
The Lamar this past week has continued to be a very strong player in the Yellowstone fishing season. The warmer weather due the rest of the weekend and maybe into the weekend will keep terrestrials rolling, but won’t help the early fall hatches we’re all waiting for.
Flows measured near the Tower Ranger today at 0615 […]
