    BY JOHN CAMPBELL Welp, school is quickly approaching, and it’s about time for me to head back to the classroom. It’s always a bittersweet feeling, but I’m not going too far and am looking forward to seeing the kids. This will most likely be my last report for the summer, but I’m sure Todd will…

We are currently running at 1050 cfs out of the dam this morning with a slight bump from yesterday’s release of 900. Hopefully things will stand pat for a bit with minimal to moderate adjustments in the…

    Man, it’s been hot. 90 doesn’t seem too crazy for many of y’all suffering with 100+ degree heat and humidity, but at 6660 feet closer to the sun and no A/C, take my word for it. The trout are feeling it, too. That said, we are expecting a break in the coming days with highs…

    Short and sweet this week as not much has changed fishing-wise in the area the last week. Flows are still high out of the Box Canyon and temperatures are quite warm with highs in the mid 80s all week. We are hoping for irrigation demand to decrease in the coming weeks, but no promises as…

    It’s a hot one up here on the caldera! Temps in the low 90s will continue through the weekend and then look to be more seasonal down the road. The best fishing will be early and late depending on the stretch of water you’re standing in. Please make sure to handle fish carefully and spend…

    The Rail Road Ranch is open for business. Unfortunately, I do not have a substantial report. A slight morning breeze turned into typhoon winds with gusts up to 50mph and blew any hatching bugs into West Yellowstone, Montana! A few brave souls ventured forward despite the wind and, upon return, had very little good to…

    Things have changed a lot since my last report. The Rainbow spawn has wrapped up for the most part, and if you haven’t already heard, the Mother’s Day Caddis hatch is here! This is one of my favorite hatches. I checked the river on Monday and remembered to throw in my gear, thanks to my…
