Things around here in Jackson have slowed dramatically over the past week. It’s as though someone threw a switch. Streets are quieter, rivers less crowded and trees have gone from green to mustard yellow. With only a handful of guided trips on the calendar this month, I am now focusing attention on my own fishing. […]
In the fall around Jackson, cloudy days on the Snake mean big (size 10 and 12) Hecuba mayflies and hungry trout….
My apologies for the lack of entries lately on the blog front. Things here in Jackson have been busy and fish have been biting- A man’s gotta have priorities (and a blog looses out when the fishing’s good!) I’ve been spending time finding fish for folks and tying flies to fool them. Folks in my […]
I’ve been spending A LOT of time on the Green River lately and it’s certainly living up to its reputation. We’ve been catching browns, rainbows and whitefish of all sizes on dries and nymphs. Below are a couple of nice rainbows that Orlando and Adam picked up a few days ago while fishing with me. […]

If you read my brief fishing report, you’ll know that I’m feeling a bit optimistic. After a long bout of high, dirty water, it seems that things are improving and we’re on the verge of fishing here in Jackson. I’ve had some folks out on morning walk-in trips this past week and also ventured down […]
Recently I headed north to Yellowstone in search of trout. Because of the holiday crowds, my friend Matt and I avoided popular waters and focused on a few lesser known gems that usually offer up some good fishing when all the water around Jackson Hole is high and muddy. This year though things were different. […]
My apologies for the lack of posts lately. The current fishing conditions have been less than inspiring and I’ve been waiting until I could write something upbeat. Fishing here in Jackson Hole is tough at best and impossible at worst. The good news is that we seem to have finally transitioned to some genuinely nice […]
Having just spent a week back east in PA enduring record heat, crazy traffic and a funeral, I can tell you it’s great to be back in the mountains of Wyoming. While most of my time was spent attending family functions, I was able to sneak in a little fly fishing. My friend Kurt and […]
