Yellowstone’s Backcountry waters

Yellowstone National Park is know for it’s legendary waters; the Firehole, Madison, Yellowstone, Lamar, etc. What often gets overlooked is the countless streams that take a bit of work to get too. These are some of my favorites and I love an opportunity to fish them with clients. I had the pleasure of taking Gary and Colin deep into the Yellowstone backcountry the other day in search of wild rainbow and cutthroat trout. The guys had a blast fishing fast pocket water while being surrounded by wild country that not many folks get to see.

Gary fishes a productive run. A stimulator with a hare’s ear dropper was all that was needed…

Not the biggest fish, but these wild rainbows had some serious fight in them!

Colin and his dad, Gary, got to fish some water in Yellowstone National Park that not many folks see. Super fun spending a day with these guys!
