Wyoming pt.II, Aug. 20th-30th...

Written by 
Wyoming! I just can't say enough about how excellent the fly fishing, landscape and experiences this beautiful part of the country has to offer. I was invited to spend another week with some great friends, Matt and Gail for a busy week of fishing the streams. I couldn't resist, so I made a couple arrangements and was on my way to Jackson. For nine days, we fished a new river or stream and the results were the same; "outstanding". From hopper dry fly patterns, nymphs and lobbing heavy streamers, all the above methods produced very well. The excitement of dry fly fishing is so rewarding watching the fly drift down stream, make a precision cast and a hungry cutthroat trout rises on cue. For numbers of fish, the dry flies won the prize, but for the lunkers in the deeper sections; swinging a dark colored cone head bugger will lure out the larger fish. We caught a multitude of species including Snake River, Bonneville and Colorado cutthroats, brook and rainbow trout, white fish and a beautiful bonus Kokanee salmon. Perfect weather, unbelievable fishing, good laughs and new friends - this was another memorable trip. Thanks so much to Matt and Gail for their hospitality and my wife for obvious reasons. Please view the additional pictures on the Crystal River Fishing facebook page, on the left of the home page for some more great photos. Here's my first Kokanee salmon in full spawning colors...
