Default madison river, just a question

Hello
I've fished in Madison River between West Yellowstone and Madison some weeks
ago and I keep a wonderfull remenbrance. Did I was lucky ? Do you think it
is one of the best rivers for trouts in west ?
On the Madison, trouts didn't looked my half/dry fly (in duck) but they have
been interested by a pheasant tail.
I've also tried the Gibbon River, the Snake River and Cottonwoodcreek in
the south of Teton Park but the weather was very bad (cold, wind, hail ) and
I 've catch only small fishes.
thanks for answer

Sorry, I can't answer any of your questions, but I really enjoyed looking at the
pictures of your trip on your web page. The Gibbon looks to be just my size, as
far as trout rivers go (I like them small).

Yes,

But so is the Big Hole, Ruby, parts of the Missouri, and the Gallatin.

I'm partial to Rock Creek, and the Clarks Fork, too.

Alain, I enjoyed your web page, (although I don't read french) ....it
seemes like you had a nice, rounded trip. You missed a national park
between death Valley and Yosemite, though, Manzanar National Park, just
north of Lone Pine CA. Manzanar was one of ten sites in America where
Japanese Americans were interned after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. You can
visit the website at http://nps.gov/manz Besides that, the madison is a
beautiful river, but does not give up her fish to a dry fly easily. I don't
think it is the best river in the west, I have not yet discovered the "best
" river.....
