Yellowstone River - Mon, Aug 29th
Fishing has been good on the Yellowstone River. Hopper fishing is good on most days, and ants and beetles trailed behind hoppers have also been effective. Dropping a nymph behind a hopper is also working to catch some of the fish that are rejecting hoppers. Smaller attractor dries are still catching fish on the upper stretches of river. Nymphing has been good with stonefly nymphs trailed by smaller caddis and mayfly nymphs. The slow, flat water makes tricking trout more difficult, so look for faster moving water in places like riffles or outside bends. Streamer junkies can get some nice fish around sunrise or sunset.
