SPECIAL FLIES OF YELLOWSTONE COUNTRY (part 7)


First of all there are many good days when anglers encounter apparent Green Drake hatches and trout rising for them accordingly. Streams in northeast side of Yellowstone National Park such as Lamar River, Soda Butte Creek, and Slough Creek are famous for these hatches. So if you hit one of good days filled with hatches and rises you are in fisherman's paradise. But then again, it's interesting to note how trout behave before the hatch and even when the hatch is sparse to none. It's the same scenarios as discussed in the previous chapter about the Gallatin River but I never believe it's redundant. Indeed, it's important to know if one wants to fish this breathtaking setting at least once and catch native Yellowstone Cutthroat.
