Things around here at Teton Fly Fishing world headquarters have been pretty quiet. Snow has been falling intermittently over the past couple days making it feel more like Christmas. I haven’t done much fishing lately, opting instead to devote time to fly tying and painting. Jamie,Sage and I ventured out and cut down a tree […]
Most folks think of winter in Jackson Hole as a skier’s paradise. And while this is undeniably true, it also can be a fun place to fly fish. Winter fishing appeals to hardy anglers seeking solitude, sweeping views and the chance to catch some of our native cutthroat trout and mountain whitefish. Unlike summer, […]
Back in August, having a day off, Sage and I jump in Sir Walter and headed up the Gros Ventre river for some fishing and gold panning. Earlier in the spring, I had lost my new sluice box to the river and thought I’d snorkel the area in the off chance that I could find […]
Always on the prowl for good regional fly fishing books, I thought I’d give folks a heads up on a great book about fly fishing in Yellowstone, written by fisherman, freelance journalist and rocker, Nate Schweber. Schweber’s book, Fly Fishing Yellowstone National Park, an insider’s guide to the 50 best places, came out a few […]
Another season has come to an end on Flat Creek. Elk are starting to move onto it from the hills and it won’t be long before several thousand batten down for the winter. I managed to fish on the Refuge a few more times over the last couple weeks, trying to fool the large, stubborn […]
Last Friday, Sage and I drove the 11 hour round trip to Helena, Montana to pick up my new Adipose driftboat. As many of you know, for years I have used a raft to float the local rivers. And while the raft treated me and my clients great, and allowed us sneak down skinny water […]
Thomas and his girlfriend fished the Snake with me in August as part of their Wyoming, Montana fishing road trip. While floating, Thomas filmed some cool footage from his perspective and was nice enough to send it to me. Check it out. Thanks Thomas!
The Snake continues to fish well! Keith got his first taste of western fly fishing, fishing dries all day long!
September was a blur around here; lots of fishing trips with great folks. While most days have been spent on the Snake, I’ve also had folks over in Dubois, down on the Green and on the Elk Refuge, fooling cutthroat, rainbows, browns; even the odd brook trout. As guiding slows down for me in another […]
As some of you may know, I’m a bit of a Flat Creek junkie. I love the challenge of fishing to selective trout in slow, clear water. I’ve spent some days over the past few weeks guiding folks on it, but today was my day. Despite having a long list of things to take care […]
