Salmon Fly Season

Salmon Fly Season

This year’s Salmon Fly Hatch on the Yellowstone River was fantastic. I was able to fish for several days, two of which you dream about. One of those days was with local guides Bryce Connery and Will Fenoglio. We had tons of action all day. We saw Golden Stones and Salmon Fly’s all day. When we stopped for lunch, we all looked up and it seemed like we were being attacked by thousands of Salmon Fly’s.

The second day was with my dad and Will again. I was on the oars all day and didn’t even fish.  It was alright with me because I was having too much fun watching the old man get so worked up watching big Rainbow’s  inhaling  his Golden Stone.

The old man and I also spent two days on the Gallatin fishing Little Yellow Sallies. The Gallatin fished great with tons of action on the surface. Lightweight rods and feisty trout are a day I would take any time.  Getting to take some time and fish with your friends and family is always something to forward to.  What better time to make that happen than the Salmon fly hatch!
