Your Constantly Updating Yellowstone Fly Fishing Resource
The Gibbon is at her prime right now – fishing is excellent, and should be so through the remainder of the season (an all-too-soon 2 November!) The geysers and hot springs are doing their job well and there are a plethora of hatches and hungry fish in the Gibbon, offering anglers several options.
If you are […]
For the final week of the season, the lower Gardner River is fishing about as you’d expect. Flows are close to the seasonal average, there are decent numbers of runners in the lower river, though as you well remember the resident fish populations were hammered in July by the thunderstorm induced mudslides.
Streamers early and late […]

Jake, the One Who Must Be Obeyed, and I spent late yesterday afternoon completing some filming on the upper Madison . Saw a grizzly at a stop between the lakes and then amazing alpenglow as we headed down toward Ennis.

You’d hardly guess it was the last week of October looking at the weather forecast for the area this week. It looks much more like early to mid-October rather than almost early November. Fisherfolk would like to see more cloud cover for this final week – though the Park should be gorgeous in this late […]
It is very nearly with a lump in my throat this morning that I humbly offer this final report on the Firehole for the season. One week from today all but the northern-most roadways in the Park will close for the 2008 season, and the fishing season will have been closed for about 12 hours. […]
Morning light from near Three Forks (taken a few days ago) - Jake and I are on the way back over today (0600) for a business meeting early and then on to the Missouri to finish our film project there….
