Summer fishing has been treating us well.    Things have been fishing great lately, and one of the coolest things we’re seeing is fish looking up. Grey Reef isn’t typically known for its dry fly opportunities, so it’s always exciting when trout start showing interest. While nymphing continues to produce the most results, those keeping… Continue reading Fishing Report 06/03/2026

Fishing around Casper continues to be solid as we move through summer.   Grey Reef is fishing well right now. We are still seeing solid activity with Caddis, PMDs, and Yellow Sallies on the warmer days.

The streamer fishing… Continue reading Fishing Report 04/24/2026

Don’t overthink it.   A few patterns have really separated themselves lately, and if we had to narrow it down, these are our three favorite bugs in the box right now:   The Little Green Machine has been a staple and continues to produce. It’s a… Continue reading What’s on Our Rigs 04/15/2026

We are a couple days into the “Flush”, and we are on the home stretch of its completion. It can fish really well IF visibility holds. It is hard to catch fish in chocolate milk and visibility measured in inches. That is just across the board fishing, and the gambling on the Flush.  The powers that be flushed the afterbay and prior to… Continue reading Fishing Report 03/12/2026

The winter of non-winter weather continues. It has been warm and a great winter to get out on the river. Fishing has been solid on the Reef and the ‘Horn. Highly recommended to take advantage of the weather and get out of the house and get a jump on fishing. Normal wintertime activities (aka skiing) are lacking, but the fishing isn’t. The Reef is till go to… Continue reading Fishing Report 02/17/2026
