Now is the perfect time to book trips for our upcoming season. With warmer temps over the past couple days and gorgeous weather ahead, we're in the early stages of run-off on many of our freestones. We are however, anticipating a great water level year ahead!!

Our tailwaters such as the Madison, Bighorn, and Missouri, are still cold, clear, and in fishable shape, and fishing quite well in fact!  Area lakes and Spring Creeks also offer the visiting fly fisherman with several options if they're after big trout this time of year.

The Gallatin has gotten mighty muddy the last few days and is pretty much done until futher notice; however over on the Upper Madison we're seeing Baetis, Midges, and March Browns too. The Lower Madison also is in great shape and has tons of caddis popping in afternoons.

The Yellowstone however is officially blown-out until further notice, as our annual run-off is here finally! Here at Greater Yellowstone Flyfishers we're counting down the days at this point; until all is clear....So now is a great time to book the best dates with your favorite guide!
