Bighorn Fishing Report 10/5
The water appears to be headed in the ‘green’ direction but fishing remains pretty good. Cool nightime temps has grass breaking free, so be sure to keep your bugs clean!
Subsurface, we are liking Worms, Dorsey’s Scud, Carpet Bugs, Softhackle Rays and Tailwater sows.
Streamer fishing is picking up. The standard fare like Jig Thin Mints, Pete’s Buggers, Goldies and Rusty Trombones are working well. Read more...
Bighorn River Fishing Report 9/24
Fall is slowly sneaking into the Bighorn valley as we near the end of our busy season. Fishing has been good, but certainly more ‘on and off’ days lately. Lots of Tricos still around, but the fish seem to be more content feeding subsurace. Cool night-time temps has the grass breaking off, otherwise the river is still looking good. Read more...
BIGHORN RIVER FISHING REPORT 9/12
Fishing is rolling along as we move into Fall. The dry fly bite is winding down a bit but subsurface fishing has been stellar! Lots of big healthy fish throughout the entire Bighorn River system right now. The upper 3 has a bit of grass growth, but everything below remains clean and fishing very well. Read more...
Bighorn River Fishing Report 8/31
We’re nearing the end of Summer and the Bighorn continues to kick out some solid fishing. Water temps are reaching into the low 60’s, so please be careful handling fish and keep them wet!
The Tricos are fairly thick most days and fish are on them, but not in huge numbers yet. Read more...
Bighorn River Fishing Report 8/23
What a great summer it’s been on the ‘Horn! Low, cold flows have provided us with tremendous hatches and the fish are in about as good of shape as we’ve seen in some time. We’re nearing the end of Summer but the warm weather is sticking around.
The Tricos are starting to make an appearance below 3 Mile and as far down as you want to look. Read more...
Bighorn River Fishing Report 8/11
We had a recent cooldown in weather, which put the bugs off a bit, but that didn’t keep the fish from gorging underneath! The hatches kicked back into gear yesterday and fishing has been outstanding this Summer.
We’re still seeing localized hatches of PMD’s. Black Caddis are strong and we’re seeing good numbers of big Tan Caddis below 3 Mile. Read more...
Bighorn River Fishing Report 8/3
Fishing has been HOT here on the Bighorn. PMD’s, Black Caddis and a few Tan Caddis are keeping the Bighorn fish interested up top and underneath. It’s been a bit busier than usual, so be considerate of other anglers out there!
The upper 3 miles has the most consistent hatch activity from about 11:00 AM till dark. Read more...
Bighorn River Fishing Report 7/25
It is fully game on! PMD’s and Caddis have exploded the past few days. Water temps remain in the low to upper 50’s (depending on the time of the day). Dries, Nymphs, Streamers, it’s about as good as Summer fishing gets right now! No hoot owl restrictions for us!
We’re seeing a couple good windows throughout the river about 9-10 AM and then again late afternoon. Read more...
Bighorn River Fishing Report 7/10
It’s game on here on the Bighorn! PMD’s showed up big time with the heat wave that hit us. However you want to catch them (Dries, nymphs, streamers) this is the time!
We’re seeing good numbers of fish up on PMD’s, which is a bit early this year, but we’ll take it. Read more...
Bighorn River Fishing Report 7/3
Bighorn River flows have dropped to 2500 CFS as of today. We should stay in this range for the rest of the Summer. This is a great thing! The water is cold and clear and setting up nicely for our Summer hatches.
A few PMD’s and Black Caddis have started showing up, but we’re a couple weeks out still for primetime. Read more...
