I just finished a three day stint in the Northeast corner of the park with the boys from the West Yellowstone Fly Shop. We had some great people and some great fishing on the Lamar River and Soda Butte Creek. After a long wait, the waters have finally cleared, warmed, and started to really fish like we're used to.

It was my first chance to spend time on these waters this season, and I was amazed at how much had changed after a huge run-off year. Several of my favorite spots from last year  are completely dry, and the river has shifted over 20 yards away. It's like a new fishery after each big water year.

We saw good fishing with terrestrials and the occassional pmd or caddis.
