YELLOWSTONE FISHING OPENS SATURDAY

COOLING CONTINUES
RIVERS HIGH - BUT CLEARING
· It appears that opening day will bring cool overcast and thundershowers, and rain. The wind will be moderate, (SW @ 5—15 mph,) and temperatures in the 50’s. PERFECT! The cooling trend promises to hold and the rivers should continue to slow. Fishing conditions will allow access to most popular locations & the Firehole will probably hold the best promise of success.
· Generalized nymphs, (large and dark,) and a good supply of caddis imitations will be required. There should also be a some stone fly nymphs in your fly box. For those brief periods of sunlight it would be good to have some nymphs with yellow or light green. Of course a double fist-full of prince nymphs is always necessary.

These are the flies we will be carrying:



uglybug





yellowbug






yellow-stone





prince
