Salmonflies and Goldenstones and Olivestones... Oh My!!!

The Madison is fishing great the last few days! There are Salmonflies from just about Raynold's Pass Bridge all the way to below Varney Bridge! Olivestones and Goldenstones are fishing well from Macatee Bridge to Eight Mile and the last few days that is where I have been. I have been raising a bunch of fish with a Jacklin's Salmonfly followed by a sz 8 yellow Stimulator; give it a try!

The Gallatin is fishing very well now, even though the Taylor Fork is running dirty. There are Salmonflies flying around and the fish are on them. A salmonfly with an unweighted rubberleg (sz 4-6) is really working great; almost to good!

The Firehole is really starting to warm up (I mean temperature wise). The only fishing is in the evening with a caddis emerger.

The Madison in "The Park" is fishing the same as the Firehole but a rusty spinner in the evening will work and a PMD sparkle dunn in the morning may raise a few fish.

The Gibbon River is fishing well know with a whole array of attractors and look in the evening in the upper meadows for a brown drake hatch.

The rivers in the north east part of Yellowstone are still dirty, give them another week.

See ya on the river
