Yellowstone National Park Fishing Report

The NE corner of the Park has been fishing very well lately!  With water levels dropping and a plethora of bugs hatching the fish have been looking up and taking dries.  Bring your PMD’s, drakes (green, brown, and gray), stoneflies, hoppers, ants, beetles, and crickets.  Attractor dries such as royal wulffs, trudes, and stimulators have…

Yellowstone Fishing Well

The Stone has been fishing well this past week.  A bit of mud has been coming from Yellowstone National Park but nothing that can’t be worked around.  Still a bunch of yellow sallies and caddis on the water.  Streamers have been working here and there, nymphing has been the most effective, with of course a…

Clarity Report

There is a short mud plug in valley today.  Guides were able to beat this by either going up high or way down low. Tomorrow this mud should be well past town and it doesn’t appear that more mud is coming immediately after, (meaning the Valley should fish well tomorrow).

Fish Still Hungry

The Yellowstone is in great shape and fishing well.  Lots of rubber legs heading out the door but a few nice fish have been caught on top as well as on streamers.  The park has been dodging bullets with late afternoon storms, but one of these days the Lamar might get hit hard.  CFS is…

Yellowstone Still Fishing Well

The Yellowstone is still fishing well.  We had a surprise heavy down pour in town last night but most of it avoided YNP, so we don’t expect to see any mud coming from it.  A few big bugs are still staging near Carbella but most all of the stoneflies have headed up to Gardiner and…

Happy 4th of July!

The Yellowstone is primed and ready.  CFS at Carter’s bridge has dropped to 9,960 while CFS at Corwin Springs is currently 9,870.  It doesn’t looks like we have any rain on the way in the near forecast, so the river should be dropping steadily this week.  If you can get out there and enjoy the…

Yellowstone Fishing Well

The Yellowstone has been fishing well the past few days.  Clarity has improved drastically and the river has a nice “green is good” hue to it.  Most anglers have been throwing Salmonfly dries (and nymphs droppers), although the fish have also been eating caddis, coldenstones, sallies, green drakes, and streamers.   There is a 40%…

Late June Fishing Report

The fishing in South Western Montana has really been heating up!  Salmonfly Fever on the Madison has flooded Ennis with drift boats, rafts, and wade anglers; however that being said, there have been some very nice fish caught on salmonfly dries this week.  Although flows are still high (and dangerous in sections), guides have been…

Lower Madison, Spring Creeks, Lakes

The Yellowstone is still high and mighty, (currently 15,600 CFS) but in the mean time we’ve been chasing stoneflies on the Lower Madison, fishing big size 16 PMD’s on the spring creeks, and fishing dries on private lakes.  Although we have had some rainy days this week, the fishing has been good.  The Lower Madison…

Spring Creeks and Lakes fishing well

With the Yellowstone still high and muddy we have been sending trips primarily to the Spring Creeks and private lakes.  Baetis have thinned off but PMD’s are ramping up with plenty of nymphs crawling around and getting ready to hatch a little later in June.  When the clouds come out the guides have seen a…
