Fly Fishing In Yellowstone, Southern Montana, and Around
From the monthly archives:
The Gardner is in pretty good shape for this time of year. Won’t be too much longer before the fall hatches start up and the fishing really gets good. It is hard to believe it is already the end of August. Where did our summer go?
The main menu item on the Gardner is hoppers. Fish [...]

The Clark Fork is trying to turn the corner to fish a bit more it does in the fall, though I’m not sure the weather is going to cooperate much this week.
Yesterday’s clouds were welcome, and did produce a more robust (nifty word, eh?) mayfly hatch from what I hear along most of the river. [...]

There are a lot of different bugs on the [...]

This year has been great, and it will continue well into the fall. Flows have been steadily dropping, down [...]

Fishing on the northeast corner waters is still pretty much a “wow” experience.
While general tourist traffic in the Park is definitely on the downswing, there are still impressive crowds of intent fly anglers plying the Soda Butte and its neighbors.
Flows are very healthy for this time of year, and in addition to the hatches we’ve [...]

Pretty much ditto what you’ve just read about Soda.
Hot damn.

From the non-fly fishing world comes an interesting read today.
Real world responsibilities require that I spend a bit of my time everyday attending to the black hole that is the world of economics and finance. Forays into the world of economics and finance are most often (in my experience) fraught with conflicting opinions, subjectivity [...]
