Tying the Found Link (by Kelly Galloup)

I really like this Mayfly pattern. I played around at the vise this morning and tied a few. Here's one I tied as a PMD on a #14 1xl dry fly hook. It doubles as a spinner and an upright winged Mayfly. The upright wing is also used as a sighter for us old guys and when viewed from the bottom it looks like a spinner.

The Bechler River - a technical challenge!

Image
My fellow fishing guides and I set out on a "road trip" to the Bechler River. We were looking for some challenging fishing, big fish and a long hike.  We found them all at the Bechler located in the Southwest corner of YNP. The river is about 4 miles from the TH at the Ranger Station.  It's a long flat hike as easy as they come, but after fishing all day in the meadow it seems a lot longer and tougher hiking out. Wilson and Ben So, how was the fishing? Well, matching wits with these big rainbow trout was nothing short of humbling, to say the least! Ben and I  Sure enough the big fish were there and the river and meadow section are beautiful. We knew it would be tough as these fish are regarded as some of the hardest to catch in Montana. These rainbows are smart and super spooky. I mean you couldn't put your big toe in the water without spooking these guys. Trying to get close to them for a short accurate cast, that's not going to happen. At the s...
