Fishing has been really good the past few days since flows have stabilized and water temps are up a bit. It’s been busy, but it’s a big river and plenty of places to fish!
Nymphing has been stellar with big Sowbugs (Red Bead Carpet Bugs, Red Bead Rays, Cotton Candy, Pink Bead Carpet Bugs) the whole river. Read more...
It’s go time on the Bighorn! Our Spring has kicked off and many anglers are enjoying the weather and fishing. It’s been good overall, but definitely somewhat spotty. The flows have been on the rise and projected to cap off around 6000 CFS this week. The river is cold and clear and a bit of drifting moss below 3 Mile, but not too bad! Read more...

The Bighorn River is currently experiencing fantastic fishing conditions! With light crowds and clear skies, it’s a great time to be on the water.
Nymphing has been very productive, with sowbugs and midge pupae being the hot flies. Jellybeans, Cotton Candy, Carpet Bugs, Firebeads, Zebras, Green Weenies and various Perdigons are working most of the day. Read more...
Spring is coming a bit early to the Bighorn Valley. We snuck out yesterday and experienced some very solid fishing! There was a healthy range of fish from 14-20″ and a few bigger. We’re seeing a good mix of rainbows of browns, which will make for a promising season!
Nymphing has been very consistent in the slower drops and buckets. Read more...
It’s been a little bit since I’ve posted an update, but good news is not much has changed! The Bighorn is in prime Winter shape. Gin clear, fantastic clarity and cold water temps. The weather lately has been insanely nice, so of course more than a few folks are taking advantage of it. Read more...
