The flows recently dropped on the freestones, but now they’re back up and judging by years past, it’s here to stay. Odds are most of us will be stuck fishing tailwaters, stillwaters, or chasing warmwater species around town. You never...
Here at Golden Fly we help people gear up for everything from throwing chubbies in Patagonia for big browns to chasing Giant Trevally on the flats in the Seychelles. But, more than anything we advise people on flies and techniques...
As the spring continues on, the freestones are getting bigger and bigger! Right now may be the threshold where fishing the tailwaters would be a better option if you’re looking to get out. Although the freestone flows still aren’t too...
I’m sure everyone knows this by now, but the water is on the rise! We’re most definitely in the first stages of runoff in most areas of the state. This is not a bad thing though, higher flows bring a...
Pre-runoff conditions are still rocking and the fishing is incredible. Pick a location and odds are you’ll see incredible BWO hatches and happy fish. Keep in mind, rainbow trout are still spawning so be aware of redds and leave these...

We’re back in action! Sorry for lull in activity, once again. We were at the Fly Fishing Show and were quite occupied with the setup and takedown process involved with it. That said, 3 Flies for the Week will now...
We had a little delay getting this one put together. And when I say we, I mean me. But here it is, your 3 flies to get you on some fish this week! We started the week with a good...
When it comes to mid-winter trout fishing, there is no better option than your local tailwater. My most recent visit to Cheesman Canyon proved just that. We hiked quite a ways in from the trail to find what we believed to...
