Well folks, springtime is clipping right along here in Central Wyoming. Grey Reef has settled into a sweet spot at 2,000cfs and water conditions are about as good as you can ask for. This flow is pretty awesome, it’s quicker to push out any runoff from moisture events and all those in-between stretches become some pretty good holding water, allowing you to fish that stuff you’d normally push through at lower flows. The baetis are popping and the fish are happy! Streamer fishing is consistent as well, especially if we have a little cloud cover. We do still have plenty of fish on redds, so please continue to be considerate of those. Otherwise, we really have zero complaints, this has been a great beginning to the 2025 season.
If you are planning on heading this way make sure to buy your license before you arrive.
