Hebgen Lake-Quake Lake: 7/21/2010
We’ve seen some good fishing between the lakes as of late. There are a lot of Caddis in the evenings and fish can be brought up to a dry pretty much all day long. Cover a lot of water with a Trude or Large Parachute and you will be in business. […]

We’ve had some fishing on the Madison in the Park in the morning hours with small attractor dries, ants and beetles. Mid day fishing with big attractors and foam isn’t fast paced, but one can pull up a decent fish or two.

Between the Lakes has had some great fishing. Golden Stones and Salmonflies dominate the fly selection right now. There are a ton of people fishing this stretch, but the bite has been good so why not?The standard Salmonfly and Golden Dries are working great. Dropper rigs can hook up some more […]

The Madison still has some good Caddis fishing in the evenings, but there isn’t much else going on in the insect department. Terrestrial fishing hasn’t been anything to write home about, but fish will rise to small Wulffs and beetles in the morning hours.

Hebgen Lake Outflow is around 800 CFS. Cabin Creek is clearing up and the place is starting to have that summer feel to it. Nymphing has been productive, but fishing sub surface means wading through a lot of whitefish to hook a few trout. A flashback pheasant tail in #14-16 has […]

The Madison in the park is best fished either early or late in the day. Mid-day it is a great time to take a nap or stock up on Olympia for post evening hatch sipping. Caddis are numerous in the evenings and there are often good Mayfly spinner falls as well. Things […]
