Snake River Fishing is decent on the upper reaches in Grand Teton National Park and on the lower reaches from South Park Bridge down to Sheep Gulch.  Claassenia is out as is Hecuba (a little early and only a couple seen a day).  Caddis are reliable in the morning until 10am and PMDs are around in the afternoon.  Expect to hear a fair amount of grasshoppers in the afternoon and see carpenter ants from time…

Snake River High flows and off-color conditions from recent rains have subsided and the Snake is getting back into shape.  Finding 18-plus inch fish has been challenging, but there is good surface and dry-dropper action.  There is a smattering of caddis in the morning before PMDs and yellow sallies take over in a bit more than a smattering fashion.  Crane flies are also starting to make an appearance.  Expect grasshoppers to be around on warmer…

Surface patterns and nymphs are producing in the morning and thru early afternoon along banks with moderate currents, ledge rock pools,…

PMDs and yellow sallies dominate the rest of the day. The canyon reaches from South Park down to Sheep Gulch are…

Snake River Flows from Jackson Lake Dam have ramped up to 2000cfs and this has put the fishing into a bit of a challenging situation for the next couple of days.  When it stabilizes, things might get back into what we had for the prior two weeks, which include diverse emergences of Calinuria golden stones, the smaller Aloperla stones, green drakes, yellow sallies, caddis, and PMDs.  Dry and tandem dry rigs are producing along banks…
