Jamie and I ended up getting out with our friend and Dubois, WY resident, Leon Sanderson on Monday. We couldn’t have asked for better weather! Despite Jamie’s determination to fish a dry fly, she listened to Leon and switched to a double nymph setup. After hooking several fish out of the first run, we knew […]
Springtime in the Rockies is unpredictable. One day the sun is shining and rivers are high and muddy, while the next consists of snow and the feeling that the decision to put away the down jacket may have been a bit premature. The lady and I are in Dubois this weekend for some R&R. We […]
I just had the pleasure of spending five days fishing with my friend and long time fishing buddy, Kurt. Kurt tries to make it out to Jackson once a year, and once again managed to sneak in for a few days on the water. We split time between Dubois and Jackson, finding fish in both […]
Chicagoans, Steve and Jason, took a break from skiing last week and fished the Snake with me. Both did a great job presenting nymphs to hungry cutthroat trout along the Snake river. A fine job guys!
I spent today guiding Colorado resident, Doug. This was Doug’s first time fishing the Snake despite many visits to Jackson. He did a fantastic job learning the ins and outs of tight- line nymphing and was rewarded with a lot of fish. Here are a few pictures. Nice work Doug!

Many times clients ask me what flies I recommend for fishing our many waters here in Jackson Hole. Take a walk into one of the fly shops in town, or thumb through your most recent fly fishing catalogue and you’ll see hundreds of different flies to […]
It’s fitting that with the spring time change comes sunshine and good fishing on the Snake! The past few days here in Jackson Hole have been beautiful, with temperatures in the high forties and blue skies. This weather has been great to fish in. We’ve spent time fishing some select spots on the Snake and […]
Yesterday, despite a winter storm warning, I took two hardy souls fishing on the Snake. Josh and Hanse were determined to fish; blizzard be damned! These guys worked the water hard with their double nymph rigs and were each rewarded with a few fish; and of course there was the colossal cutthroat that got away! […]
After enduring a few months of Wyoming winter, one can’t help but feel the need to get out of town; if only for a change of scenery and chance to fish some different water (that is NOT lined with several feet of snow). So, after dropping Jamie off at the airport to catch a flight […]
