Spent the past weekend traveling around Yellowstone National Park and the surrounding area. Every year about this time Jamie and I make a run north, spending a day or two in Yellowstone together before the summer gets nutty. This year we added to the getaway and drove over the Beartooth Pass, spending a night in […]
We knew we were in for a great day when we stumbled upon a bear-jam in GTNP. Keeping tourists, locals and rangers gawking was a female grizzly bear and her two cub; seemingly unbothered by the chaos and rain. After a little bear viewing, Matt and I headed north to Yellowstone National Park. This time […]
Wet. That’s the way things have been around here lately. River flows have gone up and dirt roads are muddy. Last week, I had the pleasure of taking Tom and his son, Ben out for two days on the water. The guys were celebrating Ben’s recent graduation from Uof New Hampshire. Due to high waters […]
Salmon flies are mythical beasts of bugs in the fly fishing world. Measured in inches, these stoneflies migrate to the banks of some rivers in the greater yellowstone area, exciting fish and anglers alike. I’ve never properly fish a salmon fly hatch, always arriving too earlier or late to the scene. This year, due to […]
Looks like we made it through another winter here in Jackson Hole. Spring came early this year and overall the weather has been pleasant. Currently area waters are running high and muddy with melted snow pack. I expect that we’ll be fishing rivers earlier this year barring some crazy May weather. Right now, unless you’re […]
We’re back. Back to the snow (although it looks like this week’s gonna warm up nicely) and trout streams of the mountain west. Jamie and I spent the better part of the past two weeks down in the Bahamas, relaxing and fishing. We met up with our great friends, Kurt and Kelly for a reunion […]
Easter weekend usually means fishing for Jamie and I and this year was no different. We headed to our fishing cabin outside of Dubois Wyoming, armed with fly rods and DVDs to watch. After a little debate, we decided to tow the drift boat to a favorite lake of ours not too far away, hoping […]
I was hoping to have some exciting fishing pictures to share after a few outings on the water lately. Due to laziness (sometimes, I’d rather just fish than worry about taking pictures) and some slow fishing, I have nothing to show for myself. Jamie and I got out on the Snake recently, taking advantage of […]
Boy, spring isn’t wasting any time making its’ presence known here in Wyoming. Temperatures lately have been hitting the 50 degree mark and local fly fishers are taking advantage, both wade and float fishing local waters. I can’t remember a time when boat ramps were accessible so early in the season. I spent the last […]
I finally have some time to update a few things around here. The long silence was in part due to some time spent traveling. Jamie and I headed to California to visit friends, enjoying some warm weather and poolside lounging/beverages. Upon returning to Jackson, I turned around the next morning and headed down to Flaming […]
