Fishing Reports, South Fork, Today at Jimmy's

Flow out of Palisades Dam has been ramped down to 3980 cfs ( now 4610 cfs at Heise, 2380 at Lorenzo).  This makes for even more wading  locations. Even with the wind this is good BWO conditions up and down the river.  There are plenty of sheltered spots along the river, especially in side channels. Don’t forget to have streamer patterns in that fly box; they are becoming more effective each day this time of year.

Chad Larson (208-346-1459) tells us Thursday evening he lost a green & black Cabela’s backpack between Kelly’s Island and Wolf Flat.  Contents include a Pfleuger reel, multi-compartment box of flies, dual sided snap box of flies, and assorted tools.  Chad would much appreciate recovery if you find this item.

Fishing Reports, Today at Jimmy's, Yellowstone Park

We have received 2020 Yellowstone Park fishing licenses and regulations. All Montana entrances to the Park open Monday, June 1st. This will make it easier to get to the Firehole River rather than going via the south entrance. The Firehole, being the usual early season Park hot spot, is likely to be well attended.  But well placed BWO & caddis life cycle patterns, soft hackles (partridge & olive, partridge & amber) will bring action.  Look for that action to improve if showers threaten.

We will be a 2020 Yellowstone National Park fishing license vendor.  Interruptions caused by dealing with the covid-19 virus has slowed the Park’s preparation and distribution of these licenses, but we expect having them with accompanying regulations soon. On arrival of these items, we will place notice of such here.  The Park fishing season is scheduled to open this year on Saturday, May 23rd. However to date certain areas of the Park are currently closed including to fishing.  If/when these areas open to fishing, we will post such on this web site.

For more information on Yellowstone Park’s upcoming happenings and plans, go to https://www.nps.gov/yel/index.htm.

Beginning at 10 AM today we will resume selling non-resident fishing licenses. This is because “Phase Two” of the Governor’s  covid-19 recovery plan allows such actions. Also quarantine restrictions ( 14 days self isolation) for out of state visitors has been lifted through the Governor’s action.

All this is great news for fly-fishers anticipating trout responses to the upcoming sequence of  insect hatches on east Idaho waters.

Fishing Reports, Today at Jimmy's

As many of you know, our dad, Jim Gabettas, passed away April 12 after a brief illness. In these unusual times, we thought the best way to celebrate Dad’s life is through photos and memories of a quiet, yet remarkable life.

We are grateful to everyone who touched our father over the years—the countless friends, customers, shop employees and folks who dropped by to say “hello” and talk fishing in Dad’s office.

Jimmy, Chris and Jennifer

F&G Commission amends earlier decision and allows more nonresident license, tag and permit sales.

­

The Idaho Fish and Game Commission on April 9 amended its previous ( April 4th) decision to temporarily suspend sales of some nonresident licenses, tags, and permits to also allow nonresident sales under specific situations, including with respect to fishing:

  • Allow people who moved to Idaho to establish residency less than 6 months ago, or who have not gotten an Idaho driver’s license as required within 90 days of Idaho residency, to still purchase a nonresident license under these conditions:

1. Person produces an Idaho driver’s license, or Idaho Identification Card, issued by the Idaho Transportation Department, or a person produces two documents issued by a third party showing name and Idaho residence address, such as rent, mortgage receipts or utility bills.

2. Person signs a declaration demonstrating bona fide intent to become an Idaho resident.

People who are eligible to buy license and tags under these criteria must contact a Fish and Game regional office  or headquarters via phone to arrange for the purchase of eligible nonresident items.  This action cannot be performed by license vendors.

So many of roads in our nearby National Forests lead to fishing locations that are superb “social distancing” candidates. Currently deep but diminishing snow remains on most.  It appears that many national forest roads, including such as the Bear and McCoy Creek roads, will not host opening operations until at least the middle of this month.  We will keep in touch with the nearby forest service offices to find when openings of such roads take place.  When openings are confirmed, we will place such information on this web site.
