Bighorn & Wind River Fishing Report Wyoming Winter
Bighorn & Wind River Fishing Report Wyoming: It is still definitely winter in Wyoming, but there is plenty of open water fishing to be had on the Bighorn, Wind and Green Rivers in western Wyoming should you have a bit of cabin fever.
Bighorn River: Thermopolis, Wyoming Fishing Report: Fishing is good right now on the right day with the right weather. Thermopolis has had a good week of weather and it should continue through the weekend. A big change from the past few weeks with winter storms moving through. The mountains surrounding the Bighorn Basin have been receiving snow, but not excessive amounts. The Game and Fish have released fish shock results, and fish numbers do seem to be down to 1100 fish per mile. We have had a few pretty big water years and crazy conditions. Our guides and clients have been still catching nice big trophy browns and rainbows. Most fisheries would dream of having those numbers and size of fish. Bottom line, the Bighorn River is still a classified Blue Ribbon Trout River despite lower numbers. Hot flies right now: sow bugs, midges, annelids, eggs, leeches and streamers on the right day. We have trips going out this month so please keep posted on fishing reports and conditions.
