Rachael, Charlotte and I just returned late last night from New York City visiting family. When we left last week, the weather was gorgeous. It had become so warm by last Tuesday, that many of the tributaries, and even the Snake, began to turn to a dirtier color. While we were gone, it cooled down again. We actually got a little snow last night! It is now cool again, and looks like more of the same for the week ahead. Flying in last night, the river looked quite clear. I talked to Scott Smith this morning, and he said fishing has been pretty good. Small dries and nymphing has been productive on the Snake, and it sounds like nobody is around. I'm hoping that this is the last of the cool weather...we need to get this runoff started. There is still a tremendous snowpack just above the valley floor. Not much else to report. Jackson is in full "off-season" mode. Very little traffic and many businesses are temporarily closed. Don't miss all of the new 2009 fly patterns from Montana Fly Company (as well as some of their older proven patterns!). I was just on their site, and they look great! http://www.montanafly.com/ I'm hoping to wet a line as soon as tomorrow...stay tuned.
