Current Conditions:
Stillwaters are still fishing well but getting a little tougher as we get deeper into summer. Sight fishing has been very good.
The smaller private ranch lakes that we target like Burns and Sitz are still fishing well. The larger lakes like Hebgen and Ennis can also be productive when the wind isn’t blowing too hard.
A variety of lake mayflies and midges are providing some great fishing for dry fly angler willing to hit to lakes right now.
The Month Ahead:
Lakes always fish very well in June and are a good choice when some rivers are up from melting snow. There is an early brood of callibaetis that can often bring some trout to the surface.
Long Term Fishing Forecast:
Lakes are always an interesting option in the summer. Sometimes we forget about the stillwaters in mid summer when the rivers are all fishing so well but they offer a nice change up and the shot at sight casting to trophy trout can be addictive!
