Jackson Hole Region Fly Fishing Report

Rhett — Thu, 10 May 2012 18:05:26 +0000

Here’s the latest fishing report:

The fishing has been quite productive and consistent this spring and is continuing to be so currently which is very early as compared to the averages. We have seen incredible hatches and lots of healthy fish taking full advantage!

Green River: Flow is 500 cfs today and the fish are eating blue wing olives on the surface and underneath as well till mid afternoon, when the action turns to streamers. The fish are tucked in the deeper pockets close to the banks, so you need to be precise with your fly placement. The golden stoneflies are getting ready to mature in the next week with the warmer temperatures predicted. This means lots of fish eating big bugs!

Lower Henry’s Fork: Flow is 2450 cfs today and the Salmon fly hatch is on the very near horizon. In the meantime the fish are eating caddis and the occasional march browns too.

Fish Creek: Flow is 102 cfs today and the bigger fish are moving in daily and are still eating midges and blue winged olives on the surface and underneath as well. A good afternoon has been producing nice hatches and the fish are eating the emergers and adult duns.

Snake: We are anticipating the Snake being fishable mid to late June, subject to the weather and flows, of course.

If you want to float the Snake River in April and experience pure solitude, beautiful days,

and great shots at catching fish all day long. Give us a call here at RDA!!

Here I am holding up this Fine spotted Cutty that Gracie Chessen reeled in!!

Gracie and her brother Butler were two of the most well behaved little anglers I have ever meet.

We had such a great time together on the river!!

Here we have a great friend of mine Phil holding just a beauty of a Cutthroat

that he caught on a red Zebra Midge. It actually took about five minutes to land this baby!!

The time is now!! Our Days on the Snake River in March have really been something special!!

Here I am with Mandy Jahshan and her 1st trout ever caught on a Midge nymph!

The Midge hatches on the Snake River have been prolific in recent weeks.

On this same day Mr. John Tarpey had one of his best days ever on the Snake, landing over 20 fish between 12″-19″ !!

These two guys had a couple of absolutely amazing days out fishing with Rhett

catching large #’s of quality fish!!

Lots of great fish caught out of this hole!

Here we have Scott Lea senior and junior who had 2 amazing days out on the Snake with us!

“The best float trip I’ve ever been on!”

Reviewed March 19, 2012 NEW

A friend and I just floated two days on the Snake River with Rhett. He was professional, fun, and most of all put us on a ton of fish! Winter fly fishing can be hit or miss but Rhett consistently put us on great healthy cutthroat trout all day. We each caught between 15 and 20 fish a day up to 18″. I highly recommend Rhett and his guides and can’t wait to get out here this Fall for some more action.

Water Wars

As the population continues to grow you can be sure the water wars will be heating up. Please see the link below for a story about Colorado attempting to divert water from Flaming Gorge to The Front Range of Colorado.
