Fishing Report

Cody, Wyoming

NORTH FORK OF THE SHOSHONE

Flows are at 596cfs today. The river is starting to fill up with fish, but run off is kicking off as well. The river will close April 15th from Newton creek down to Gibbs Bridge. On days the river is clean, nymphing stoneflies works the best.

SOUTH FORK OF THE SHOSHONE

The fishing is really good, but run off is starting to kick off on warming days. Nymphing stoneflies, perdigons, pheasnat tails, duracells, and midges are working the best. Streamers are starting to work really well. Still try smaller to medium buggers or similar with a slower retrieve.

LOWER SHOSHONE

Flows are at 220cfs. The fishing has been good, but the river is very low. Tougher to navigate by boat (raft). Nymphing has been the best. Midges, pheasant tails, perdigons, duracells, meatheads, worms. BWO action on dries can be good at times. Streamers have been working well too.

Thermopolis, Wyoming

BIGHORN RIVER

Flows are around 800cfs. The fish aren’t as condensed into their winter holding waters (deeper runs). Nymphing is by far going to be the most productive. Sowbugs, scuds, baetis, midges, worms, perdigons, duracells, pheasant tails. On certain days, and times there as been some incredible BWO action, so be on the look out for big fishing rising!
