    Try sugar creek ranch in NorCal. They have a website to look at. Not a sponsor here, or I would include a link. Just put the name into google.

    For the last 10 years or so my fishing partner and I have spent our June fishing trip at Cape Cod.
    When ever the subject of going somewhere else comes up, there is really not much discussion.
    The numbers of fish, the chance of truely large fish, access to miles and miles of shoreline, the beaches, flats, estuaries, makes it an easy choice for us.

    Just come to Colorado and head to Glenwood Springs.

    From there, you can fish the Colorado, the Roaring Fork and the Fring Pan.

    Three of the greatest rivers in the US!!

    June can be a bit of a problem this year in the northern rockies. We have had some great snowfall in most areas and the rivers will most likely be running high into July.

    I'd think tailwaters or plan on heading to SW Colorado or New Mexico.

    Don't forget those lake trout and landlocked salmon in Lake Ontario and the Niagra River.

    Like Paul said, be aware that in most of the west run-off is and will continue to be a problem.

    If you are coming out west I would be coming as late as possible in June. July would probally be a safer bet.

    At that time some rivers will still be running high and murky.

    Henry's fork could be a viable option by mid-June and you are close to YNP.

    Usually the Firehole, Madison and Gibbon rivers are fishing at their best during mid-June.

    That said the high water this year should translate into better fishing for at least the next few upcoming seasons.

    Bye, bye drought!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
