Fresh Fishing Reports from Yellowstone River
Fresh Fishing Reports from Yellowstone River
Sping fishing report. 4/3/25
April 2, 2025
The pre runoff fishing on the Madison has been fantastic as expected. The flows are still low at around 1000 cfs and the water is perfectly clear. Most of the shelf ice from the gorge has melted except for closer to Ennis and to the lake. The Ennis boat and Valley Garden FAS’s are closed until FWP can get the sites rebuilt from the ice damage. The most productive method to catch trout is nymphing under an indicator. However, the streamer bite has heated up and there are blue winged olives in the afternoon. Cloudy days are your friend for streamers and dries. The standard rubber legs coupled with a wire or San Juan worm have been the best patterns. Others include the bead head Prince, Purple Psycho Prince, Pheasant Tail,, WD40-50, Zebra midge. Some good streamer patterns include mini Dungeons, Zonkers, Mini loop sculpins but others will certainly work. The dry fly fishing is going to be in softer water wirh a nice foam line. Side channels and soft pockets can hold rising fish.

Yellowstone River Hoppertunity!

The much awaited hopper bite is happening on the mighty Yellowstone and the big fish are looking up! We’ve been starting early when the fish are more active and to beat the afternoon heat. Inside edges and riffles are holding lots of trout that are at the table waiting for a grasshopper aka double bacon cheeseburger float over. Our favorite dry flies; Chubby, Stream bank hopper, Amy’s Ant, Triple Decker, Morish Hopper

Madison River Fishing Report Salmonflies
June 22, 2024
The famed Pterinarcys Californicus or Giant Salmon Fly hatch has just started to show up on the stretches above Ennis on the Madison. These double bacon cheeseburger bugs are a favorite for trout when they show up. We’re having success nymphing and on the bug dry. A double rubber leg short leash nymphing rig is our most effective way to nymph. We are getting action on the surface using several different dry salmon fly patterns. The Rogue, Bank Robber and Chubby Chernobyl just to name a few. A little twitch is another trigger for the trout. The adult naturals are pretty active when they’re on the water. Also try a smaller Golden Stone if your getting refusals on the big bug.

We actually fished out of Helena, MT but just be prepared for cooler weather and have appropriate attire to stay warm and dry.
