Road conditions were pretty good as was the fishing. Nymphing was really good with Pat’s Rubber Legs, Amber scuds and midge patterns. The midge hatch was impressive as [...]

Wyoming Fly Fishing-Winter’s Best

Another unbelievable day! It has been calm with seasonable temps and the fishing has been very good. Dry fly fishing on Grey Reef in winter! The river isn’t frozen at any point on the upper stretch so be careful where you get that info. We had a number of people relay that information and it [...]

Wyoming Fly Fishing and Fremont Canyon

Forgot to mention that the spillway at Pathfinder Reservoir has been elevated several feet. The BuRec is now able to move some of the Seminoe Reservoir storage down to Pathfinder. Basically that means the Miracle Mile flows are up to 1000cfs. Great level for wading. Pathfinder will have many more thousands of acre feet of [...]
