Fishing is starting to pick up just a bit on the Bighorn. Low night temps have helped cool the water a bit and the fish seem to be a little more interested in eating. The crowds are down for the season and the weather is great!
Subsurface fishing is the way to go. Read more...

The Bighorn trout continue to eat, despite the slightly off colored water and grass! The crowds have thinned out for the season and Fall weather is on the way.
Nymphing with Big Orange Scuds, SH rays in tan and grey, sunk Trico spinners and Carpet bugs has been steady, mostly on the upper river. Read more...
