Yellowstone Park 6-19-10

Best dry fly fishing by far is on the Firehole River during this late spring. Caddis, BWOs PMDs and a smattering of small stoneflies make for action.   Madison River PMD hatch has resumed. Duck Creek is good fishing for those using small leech patterns.  Fall River Basin streams are dropping.  Best still water action is on Lewis and Shoshone lakes. Get out to weed beds and use full sink lines to get scud and damselfly nymph patterns down to foraging browns and juvenile macks.    Trout Lake opened on June 15th. No reports on it yet, but damselfly nymph patterns work well until “weed-up”.  The Ashton-Flagg Road remains closed  from the Idaho side to our knowledge, so no reports available on Beula Lake.
