Yellowstone Park 6-7-16

The Ashton-Flagg Road is closed from South Boone Creek on east. Road damage from there to Calf Creek Hill needs repair and snow  is on the road above. So several more days of closure are likely.  Warm weather is increasing snow melt on plateaus above Fall River Basin, thus expect its streams to continue to rise and cool. Lewis and Shoshone Lakes are ice free and fishing will be good for the rest of the month for those who fish from boats. Best success will be around submerged weed beds where leech, scud, and streamer patterns presented on full-sink lines work best. Expect good streamer fishing on Lewis River Channel before and after boat traffic passes.  The Firehole River offers good early season fishing thanks to BWO, caddisfly, and white miller hatches. Expect plenty of company there!  Most Hebgen Lake ‘bows are out of the Madison River within the Park. Look for resident fish there to respond to caddisfly and upcoming PMD emergences.
