Bighorn River Fishing Report: Thermopolis, Wyoming

Bighorn River Fishing Report Thermopolis, Wyoming

Bighorn River Fishing Report: Thermopolis, Wyoming; The Bighorn River water flows have recently bumped up to 3000 CFS in anticipation of spring runoff. There is only about 977 CFS flowing into Boysen Reservoir, so the Bureau of Reclamation is planning ahead. With not as much snowpack this year, the Bighorn River should not see the high water flows that we have seen in the past couple of seasons. We will see what the rest of spring brings too. We will keep you posted on any crazy weather or conditions that could pop up.

This weekend brought the first real blue wing olive hatch for the season. The dry fly fishing was the most productive with trout feeding on the surface actively. It is always a hoot to be fishing smaller dry flies so early in the season and there should only be more of the blue wing bite to come. Hot flies: annelids, eggs, midges, and blue wing olives.

Dubois, Lander, Thermopolis Fishing Report: Bighorn, Wind, and Popo Agie Rivers

DUBOIS, LANDER, THERMOPOLIS FISHING REPORT:

Bighorn and Wind Rivers: The Bighorn River flows have dropped to summer levels this last week and fishing will be improving. There is a lot of moss in the river right now, but much of that is due to the water coming down. Fish will start to pod up again and the dry fly fishing is only going to get better. The Wind River is fishing very well right now with a lot of BIG fish eating. There is very little to no moss in the Wind River making fishing great! Our weather has been outstanding with the occasional rain shower, but we have not had a full day of rain since June.

Dubois and Lander: The fly fishing in Dubois and Lander has been pretty spectacular. Our guests our catching nice browns, cutthroats, and rainbow trout. All of the rivers have come down from spring run-off and the fishing is great. We are using dry/dropper setups and finding fish eating on top and sub-surface. We love using big foam dry flies with a stonefly nymph when fishing these waters. We have been covering a lot of time on the tributaries to the Wind River and are still fishing in the lakes. The Wind River in Dubois is in prime shape right now for fly fishing. Call us today and we can set up a trip for your on any of these waters. Keep posted for more reports to come.

Bighorn River Wyoming Fly Fishing Guide Report

Bighorn River Wyoming Brown Trout

Bighorn River Wyoming Fly Fishing Guide Report: The fly fishing in Thermopolis remains to be great. Weather was very nice this weekend with crisp fall mornings and warm blue-bird afternoons. Guide Spike and Michael had a fantastic day yesterday tricking trout with dry fly and nymph set ups. Looks like we traded blue wing olives for tricos with the nice weather. Pretty typical but the trout seem to be very picky on natural dries, so cast and hook set all must be precise to seal the deal. The nymph fishing has been much more consistent and producing big numbers.

Hot flies: trico dries, baetis, annelids, and streamer/nymph dead drift

Dubois & Thermopolis Fishing Reports

dubois_wyoming_kids_fly_fishing_brooks_lake_1_20140711_1186618320Dunoir Fishing Adventure’s fishing guides have been working hard in Dubois and Thermopolis, Wyoming guiding on the alpine lakes and the Bighorn River. We are in our peak season for guests and making sure all of our guests have a fly fishing adventure of a lifetime. The fishing has remained good to great despite our big water on the rivers. Guests have been catching rainbows, cutthroats, browns, and even lake trout. Hot flies lately have been a few foam terrestrials, tricos, streamers, and baetis nymphs. It is the season of the dry-dropper set-ups! The Bighorn River flows have been bumped up to 3750 cfs yesterday, which is up from 2000 cfs a few weeks ago. My family and I enjoyed a day off at Brooks Lake fly fishing in Dubois a few days ago. Little Meesha is showing promise of becoming a great fly angler and is perfecting her cast. Keep posted for more fishing reports to come.
