The Green around Pinedale is still mostly frozen over. There is some open water farther south, but you will find much better fishing opportunities in other areas.

The lower New Fork is still mostly frozen over, but you can find some open water closer to town. In the areas where there is enough open water, the fishing has been good. Midges, small stonefly nymphs, and small streamers have all produced nice fish. Fish are mostly hanging out in deep holes and tailouts, and are moving around a bit as the temperature warms up during the day. Look for fish moving on to shallower flats and into more active feeding lanes during the warmer part of the day.

This is where the majority of the fishing opportunity is right now. Fishing below Fontenelle Dam has been good, with anglers catching both good size and numbers of fish. Sow bugs are plentiful down there right now. When I was there last week, I flipped a couple of rocks and they were loaded with sow bugs. Some big ones, too. Midges are also fishing really well right now. Mostly nymphing, but you will see some adult midges flying around on warmer days. Streamer fishing has been slower, but still worth a shot and one of your best chances for really big fish. We have seen a lot of fish move up into faster water near drop-offs to feed as temperatures warm up, and sit in deeper water when temperatures drop. Getting your flies as deep as possible will produce the most fish, and don't be afraid to size up a bit on your sow bugs.
