Small Streams

Midge activity on the lower Teton makes for the best small stream fishing in the area right now. The Warm River just below the Spring has an excellent BWO emergence, and so does Birch Creek.

Below Mackay Dam fish are concentrated in holes. They feed big time on midges during the AM and during the PM on the BWO emergence. Wading is easy and anglers are few.

Shallows almost anywhere on the lake will produce fish.  Scud patterns on an intermediate line with and without a leech pattern tied in forward seem to work best. Dress warmly: water temps are around 40 Deg. F.

For the lower river rely on BWO life cycle patterns and steamers. For the upper river BWO life cycle patterns bring action around Last Chance.  Egg patterns and streamers bring action in Box Canyon and the Tubs.

Flow out of Palisades Dam is down to 1800 cfs. The river is now a walk-in-wade paradise. Fish are concentrated, crowds are gone, and there are many, many locations to try.  Drop by the shop; we can help you decide on which ones are best.  When you decide on where along the river you will be fishing, be sure to have BWO life cycle patterns and streamers.  These are the taking flies for riffle feeding cutts and migrating browns respectively.

Look for migrating browns taking streamer patterns almost anywhere up & down the river.  The same for rainbows chasing forage minnows. This unsettled weather we are having is just the ticket for action with evenings being the best time of day for a chance at a really big brown or ‘bow.   Be sure to have a streamer tip line for presenting those streamers.

Action is picking up especially in the Dcuk Creek-Hope Creek area. Try the mity mouse and peacock leeches.  A few fish are being caught along the north shore, but action there has a long way to go to be considered very good.

Still pretty much the same for the lower river: streamers for migrating browns and BWOs for top water fishing. The weather has been great fo both with cloudy unsettled conditions. So get out and enjoy. For the upper river BWOs are active around Last Chance, and streamers are becoming more effective in Box Canyon.
