Oct. 1st Yellowstone River

Clients, Steve and Asa, came back for their second trip this season to the Yellowstone River for some early fall Salminoid love. Though we did run into a few trout, the only true love was coming from the hoards of Whitefish that have taken over every square inch of the river. We fished every fly that a trout would love and a Whitey would only eat if it was bounced off of his nose. Still couldn't keep Mr. Whitefish off the hook. We threw the biggest Bow River Bugger I had in the boat, only to be inhaled by the biggest Whitefish upstream of Livingston. So, if you're a numbers guy and you're looking to rack up some points, head over to the Yellowstone with those crap flies you tied after too much beer. They'll eat it.
