One Last Snow Storm


It looks like the record winter of 2007-2008 had one last punch for us this week. We've had a rain/snow mix for the last couple of days here in the valley, with significant snow accumulating in the mountains and in Yellowstone. The Green River has dropped and cleared dramatically and the South Fork now seems to be stable at 12,000 cfs. I guided on the South Fork on monday and had decent fishing with some return clients. They boated about a dozen fish, mostly rainbows, on stonefly nymphs fished deep. The biggest was this 16" bow netted by Lil Parker. Nice fish! The forecast is for much warmer weather for the weekend with a drying trend. Summer may arrive yet. I'm heading to Thermopolis to fish the Wind River Canyon with Darren Calhoun on Saturday...look out for the next report!
