NE entry to Yellowstone

i will be there next week, Cooke City, Montana
i will be using ultra light spin cast
any tips
or locations

Thanks

The Gallatin River in Big Sky is absolutely beautiful and has some good trout fishing. We had success fly fishing. It has some crazy rapids though so be careful! I think it is a popular white water rafting location. If Cooke City is near Big Sky I would check it out.

I believe there is also a river in Yellow Stone which might be closer to you.

Hope you have a good trip!

ENJOY THE ROAD INTO yELLLOWSTONE AND LOOK FOR THE ELEPHANT HEAD M OUNTIKAN TO HE NORTHc

You will be going through Lamar Valley. Bring your camera and be on the lookout for bears, wolves, sheep, bison etc.

Butch, Mike here. Just left Yellowstone this evening. Near Cook City you have a lot of fishing opportunities. One that has easy access and quite a few trout id Soda Butte creek. As you re enter the park it is on your left. From the Etry to about 1/2 mile into the Lamar Valley is some of the best fishing on that side of the park. If you'd like more info message me and we can talk. We go to Yellowstone yearly and usually spend a night or 2 in or near Cook City.
Tight lines~

Remember the Bears are HUNGREY!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks men

on the road

Copy Mike

if i ever mention that i am going to try & fish a river in Wyoming
beat me to death with my rod

Nice report^^^^^!

We have some easy fishing in some spots, wind never helps.

The Gravant in Yellowstone

Gros Ventre perhaps ?

What happened…or did you just not catch anything?

We saw every animal you can imagine
with scopes also
incredible

i will writ a real synopsis
i am beat down
came home & had to travel for work immediately

didn't have prayer to catch anything
the locals walked off if i asked a ?
all of that 4 LB# line stuff
is difficult to work with
my fly got hung up in my shoe from the wind blowing it around
on the last day i saw the lake i should have fished
going back to the lake

Wish I’d seen this sooner. There are plenty of ways to catch em in the river on 8-10# test and easy to throw lures….
Worked up there for 6 years and got pretty good at it without having to fly fish. Although fly fishing is a blast once you get it down.

Mepp’s gold spinner if it’s sunny or silver w some pink if it’s cloudy. Throw it upstream and let it tumble back to you and past w the current. 8-10 lb test.
Rapala baby trout hard stick bait fished the same way.
I pinch the barbs flat since I release my fish and it keeps the locals happy. Treble w barbs are hard on those trout.

nice
next time i will know
