Bighorn River Flush, Wind River & Green River Fishing Reports

June 2, 2020 by Jeramie Prine

Bighorn River Flush, Wind River, Green River Fishing Reports: The big question is how is Wyoming fishing right now? We are in the height of the spring runoff and things are definitely interesting. The Bighorn River will be going through a flush this Thursday and Friday. Flows will bump from 1400 CFS to 3200 CFS to flush the moss from the river. Fishing has been great, but you have to work hard to make sure your flies are clean. The bump in flows should significantly help with the moss situation. We will keep you posted.

Bighorn River Flush, Wind River & Green River Fishing Reports

We have also been running trips on the Green River near Fontenelle, Wyoming. River flows are up, but fishing is great right now. This is one of our favorite times to be on the Green River. Low crowds, great fishing, and beautiful weather (wind dependent) are the norm on the river.

The Wind River in Dubois, Wyoming is entering the height of spring runoff. It is a tough time to fish the upper Wind River, but there are plenty of still-water opportunities and soon the upper tributaries will start fishing.

For those who are interested in true trophy Rainbow Trout, now is the time to book your Triassic Lake trip! We will be guiding this private lake until the beginning of July. Clients have been catching trout in the 6-10 pound weight class and fishing is on fire!

Wind River Absaroka Mountain Snowpack

The snowpack in the Wind River and Absaroka Mountains is quite abundant this year. It is reminiscent of 2011; the last big water year that we have experienced. The Bighorn River, Green River, and Wind River along with many waters around the state will be running full this year if snowpack is a predictor of anything. We took a scouting trip into the head of of the Wind River/Bighorn River headwaters region at the Ram’s Horn Guest Ranch. Our cabins are completely buried under huge wind blown drifts. We will continue to monitor the high country and keep you posted on those conditions.

Bighorn River Fishing January Report

Bighorn River January Brown

Bighorn River Fly Fishing January Report: Dunoir Fishing Adventures had a fantastic three days on the Bighorn River with Ed. Thanks Ed, and congratulations for catching some nice bruisers from the ‘Horn! January turned out to be a great month for drifting and fishing the river. Last year, the Bighorn had a major ice dam form near Hot Springs State Park destroying the dock at the take-out. So far, the river has been relatively free of ice. We will see what the next month brings. We have been busy taking reservations for this season on the Bighorn River, Green River, and the Wind River. Last season, our guides were completely booked from July to October with few exceptions. We encourage our guests to book their trips as far out in advance in order to reserve their guide for these rivers. Keep posted for more fishing reports and pictures to come!
