Jackson Hole Fly Fishing Report: October 9, 2015

 The 2015 Guide season is nearly a wrap but great fall fly fishing is still available. The early fall season and post One Fly weather conditions have been quite nice as usual. Later in September we saw crowds drop just enough to ease the fishing pressure and with some nice hatches returning the fishing had some very special moments. Recently our flows have dropped to winter levels and this brings in the final stage of the season until air temps drop below 40 degrees in the afternoon, this could be several weeks away considering afternoon temps are close to 70 degrees lately(a silver lining to climate change perhaps).

Mornings are cool but fishing gets going about 9-10am with wet flies(droppers and streamers), by noon you likely will see trout in riffle zones sipping small BWO's or mahoganies. For now, small terrestrials are still a good bet in the afternoon, especially with a small nymph dropped below.

Enjoy this special time of year!
