Although the Yellowstone has been dropping we are expecting the river to come back up this week. We had a few days with day time temperatures in the high 80’s which eventually caused the Lamar and other rivers to come up. While temps are going to be lower starting Sunday, we also have some rain…

While runoff on the Yellowstone remains in full force, tailwaters, spring creeks, and lakes have been fishing well. We expect the PMD’s on the creeks to hatch around June 20th or so, with the thickest hatches occurring right towards the end of June. With snow water equivalent for the upper Yellowstone Basin at 80% snow…

Clarity on the Yellowstone yesterday (5/24) was less than a foot. There is a chance right on the edges with a streamer however, and that means a chance of a nice brown if you get lucky. Last week’s hydrologic prediction was right, at least the river was on the drop the past few days. Expect…

With a current rising and muddy river we have been looking for other places to fish. Some of the best options out there right now are lakes, tailwaters, and spring creeks. Local and private lakes are always a treat this time of year because the fish are hungry and most haven’t been caught yet. We…

With temps in the 80’s yesterday the river bumped up significantly. Normally for all fishing intents and purposes the Yellowstone would be blown until late June but with colder temps ahead late this week and weekend there could be one last window according to the hydrologic prediction. As always if you choose to float make…

The Yellowstone looks worth a shot tonight and possibly the next few days, (although rain is in the forecast). Yesterday, (5/9) the river had about a foot and a half to two feet of visibility. If you are looking for blanket caddis hatches, head into the valley. There are some caddis in town but most…

With the weather looking nasty for the upcoming week, the next two days might be the best window to get out on the river. The clarity isn’t great but there’s enough to work with. Caddis are still flying, but fish haven’t had too many chances to get their fix. We have had a few reports…

With the river on the drop over the past few days we’ve been getting calls wondering how the river looks. Although its starting to look better, the clarity still isn’t that good. You could try stripping streamers but there are much more productive rivers even for that right now. For an up to date clarity…

Clarity on the river is not looking good for today and the weekend. Heavy rains last night made the river even more off than what it was. Caddis were out in thick numbers on Wednesday evening, but yesterdays wind and rain kind of shut things down. The shop is open for curbside pickup from 8:30-5:00…
