The Green has very low visibility in its southern reaches, but anything above Daniel has about 2 feet. Fish have been mostly eating worms, and large stone flies under the surface, but lots of larger fish are responding to small to medium streamers.

Boulder Creek and the East Fork are quite muddy, so beware of the New Fork near Big Piney. However, Pole Creek and Pine Creek are coming in relatively clean, so the water close to town is very fishable. Similarly to the Green, most of the fish are eating worms and larger nymphs, but not as much streamer success.

There is still lots of water coming from Fontenelle Dam, but it’s still relatively clear. Soft inside bends and slower pools will likely be where fish congregate. Scuds and midges are the primary food source, but there have been whispers of dry fly fishing in recent days.

The Big Horn has seen a recent uptick in flows, and we expect a bit more soon, but the river has stayed relatively clear. Rain in the forecast is likely to cause a bump in flows, but lately, streamers and nymphs have been doing the job well, and a small change shouldn’t hurt that.
