Yellowstone National Park

I trust you stopped whatever you were doing yesterday morning at sunrise for a respectful moment of silence – the 2017 (fly) fishing season opened yesterday morning at that time in Yellowstone.

Fly fishers world-wide should pause for a moment today, remove their hats and stand for a full minute of reverent salute – the Yellowstone National Park fishing season opened this morning at sunrise. [I know a lot of folks will roll their eyes at another mention of the Firehole. Well, roll away my friends. Catching […]

Yellowstone National Park really is a magical place.  If you have never been, then make plans to go.  Its worth the time and money to get here. Fishing in the park opened last Saturday, but due to work constraints I couldn’t make opening day.  Finally had a window to go yesterday, and I almost didn’t.  […]
