Fishing on the Yellowstone is great right now. The flows in Livingston are around 3350 at the moment and the water temperature is peaking around 70 degrees in Livingston. There are certainly fish looking up for dry flies right now and a dry dropper rig has been our go to recently over on the stone. We have been hearing good reports of hopper action as well as good action with ants and stimulators. Some good droppers over there have been small/medium sized flashy flies like the Fk prince, Hot head Pheasant tail, and the sizzlin' hot squirrell. Streamer fishing can move some nice fish this time of the year too, so don't be afraid to throw some bigger flies like a Dungeon, Ditch Witch, Gonga, or a Dragon. Nymph rigs are a consistent way to pick up some fish as well. Fishing Stoneflies, Worms, Zirdle's, Hares Ear's, Pheasant tail's, Prince nymph's, Blowtorch's, and flashy Euro nymphs have all been good options for us while subsurface fishing or throwing underneath a chubby Chernobyl.
