Since I'm coming up from Salt Lake City in mid-July, I guess I have
some other options if the West Yellowstone area will still be blown out.

Anyway, any prognostications based on what you've seen and expect will
be much appreciated...


The Yellowstone on the 4th of July is usually fishable, with
Salmon flies hatching up near Tom Miner Basin and Yankee Jim
Canyon. But this year? I'm making no predictions.

We had a lot of snow this year. We've had a lot of snow
on other years too. What I don't remember is the cold and
cloudy weather lasting this long. Even a small runoff would
create a bit of ruckus is it waited this long to get underway.

So I don't know what say. The Madison, Gallatin, Jefferson, Big Horn,
Missouri, Big Hole and all the northwest rivers will be fishing
well then I think. But I'm not so sure about the Yellowstone.

thanks... i'm hoping my friends in the area will know some decent
spots...but, i don't expect we'll get much above the gallatin in the
northwest corner of the park, if we get that far north.
