The Yellowstone River in the Park

The Yellowstone in the park upstream of  the lake to the falls opened up today. However, I received a recent report that is not fishing well. The way to succeed on this stretch is to actively spot fish and then sight cast with either dry flys or nymphs. A friend headed down there today to see if he could pick up some of the big beautiful cutthroats that are typically in there this time of year. The report he gave me indicated that there are not a lot of fish in the river currently. Tales from the Yellowstone in the canyon brings other news with tales of Salmonfly and trout actively feeding on them. So, there is a great opportunity if you’ re willing to hike.
