The Stone has continued to be hit or miss depending on the day or even time of day. Nymphing has been fairly effective with a larger rubberlegs followed by a baetis nymph or an olive soft hackle. There is still some hopper fishing to be had on the lower sections during mid-day. Be on the lookout for BWOs hatching on the cooler, overcast days. Streamer fishing has continued to improve as well. Fish olive and white streamers and fish them deep!

The Yellowstone River is the quintessential large western river and provides a unique Montana fly fishing opportunity with over 100 miles of quality, wild trout water. In fact, the Yellowstone River is the longest free-flowing river in the lower 48. There is every type of water to be found through its course, including the whitewater sections of Yankee Jim Canyon, the placid glides of Paradise Valley, and the long riffles of the lower sections near Big Timber.
