Couldn’t resist throwing this up.

The Madison continues to be a strong fishery. Both the Upper and Lower have been producing a lot of fish lately, even with the water muddying up somewhat. We are all eagerly awaiting the opening of the stretch between Quake Lake and MacAtee Bridge on the 16th. The Upper has seen a lot of traffic […]
Mark and I, as we often do on days when work in the real world seems overwhelming, decided to make a quick run out to the Gallatin this evening. We ended up hitting several of our favorite spots in hopes of clearer water, but the whole river is pretty muddy right now. The fishing was […]
The Gallatin has had a good week. Baetis and March Browns have been coming off and the dry fly fishing has been pretty good. Mark and I had a great evening down on the lower river by Manhattan a few nights ago, you can read about it here. But now things aren’t looking so good. […]
Does this river ever slow down? Ask any of the happy fishermen who have been over there catching big rainbows and browns this past week, and the answer would unequivacbily be “NO!”. The Bighorn continues to stand out as a spring fishery. Flows have been rock steady (around 3600 cfs) at the gage near St. […]
Yesterday, Mark and I just had to get out of town. The sun was shining, it was warm, and the walls of my office seemed to be closing in on me. Both of us had been working on projects for another business venture of ours. Needless to say, it was boring as hell. After some […]
From the entire team here at Chi Wulff, we’d like to thank you for your interest in our new site. People near and far told us it was crazy to change our site name, URL, basically everything – from Best Fly Fishing Yellowstone to Chi Wulff. Readership during the first three weeks that we’ve been […]
Yesterday was a good day. Camille and I had a chance to run out to Bear Trap Canyon in the afternoon for a few hours. It was the first time we had ever fished together, so it was a good opportunity to get to know each other better. As we walked in, we were both […]
For the past week, it has been snowing here in Bozeman. Many people, myself included, are getting pretty fed up with the snow by now. Spring snow can reduce some fly fishermen to pathetic depths. Normally during these spring storms, enormous amounts of alcohol are consumed as the fisherman nervously ties flies and checks out […]
The cooler weather and snow this week have helped the Gallatin, even though almost everyone I know has been praying hard for the return of 70 degree days and sunshine. Water clarity has improved quite a bit since early this week when flows were at their highest. We made a run out to Four Corners […]
Over the past few weeks, the team here has been working on ways to improve our site. One of the solutions we came up with was social networking. Today, Chi Wulff has joined two of the largest social networking websites on the web. I set up a Facebook page last night. We really intend this […]
I probably sound like a broken record by now, by what else can I say other than the Bighorn is fishing well? Flows over here have been increasing, but visibility is still good. With other waters beginning to muddy up, the Bighorn is a good option right now. A buddy of mine had some business […]
Yesterday I introduced to you Camille Egdorf, fly fisher extraordinaire. Today, I would like to go into a little more detail about her experiences in the wilds of the Alaskan bush. Like I had mentioned earlier, the Egdorf family owns and operates two fishing camps in the Bristol Bay region of Alaska. Dave and Kim […]
It is rare to meet a young woman with skill, incredible passion and active involvement in the sport of fly fishing. It is even more rare when that young woman has been fly fishing almost since she could hold a rod, and spends four months of the year in the Alaskan bush country. Until just […]
As always it seems to, the Madison continues to fish well. The warm weather has pushed some mud and sediment into the river, but visibility is still very fishable to excellent. I have heard reports of crystal clear water around 8 Mile Bridge on the Upper. Speaking of the Upper, one of my co-workers was […]
