Even though we are under quarantine orders at home, a few of us who live close to the Yellowstone have gotten out to do some solo wade fishing. We are surprised at how busy some of the access sites have been and hope that everyone is using good judgment, staying close to home, and fishing…
We just got home from our annual Argentina trip and everyone is still reeling from the trip of a lifetime. The fishing at both lodges was difficult and the conditions were tough, but everyone worked hard and managed to get the fish of a lifetime. Estancia Río Capitán Estancia Río Capitán was a new lodge…
The weather outside is frightful, but Spring Creeks could be delightful. If you are itching to get out and there is day without 20-40+ mph wind it would be worth it to check out the Spring Creeks. With $40 rod fees and few fellow anglers this time of year, it could be your chance to…
The Yellowstone has been fishing slow lately but the Paradise Valley Spring Creeks have been fishing well. Fall Baetis are starting to slow down, so it has been mostly midges. The browns are spawning now so be careful where you step and avoid fishing to fish that are actively spawning. Looks like we have some…
Recent cold temperatures have created a good amount of slush ice on the Yellowstone lately. Although the forecast is calling for some slightly warmer temps the next few days, (22-47°F), the river will likely still have some ice floating in it. In addition to the snow and ice, we have also been experiencing lots of…
Looking back on 2019 it’s hard to put into words how special this years fishing was. The theme of the summer was hoppers, and we had several guides, locals and visiting anglers tell us that this was the “single greatest hopper fishing year they have ever seen!“ And this was especially true on the Yellowstone…
We’ve had some crazy weather to say the least this Fall. Along with the snow storms there has been a fair amount of wind and the water temps have been chilly. That being said there has still been some dry fly action out there in certain spots, mostly foam eddies where baetis are collecting if…
Despite some recent rain the Yellowstone has remained clear and has been fishing reasonably well. Wind has been preventing some otherwise great potential for dry fly fishing with parachute adams, purple haze, and other baetis imitations. If you are lucky enough to fish on a calm/cloudy day be sure to bring your dry fly rod….
