Tetons On the Fly: Fall is here

Its been awhile since my last post due to September being just slammed and fishing staying spectacular here, in Jackson. The days seem to fly by at the beginning of fall here and being on the river everyday with great people makes them go even faster.

Lewis with a nice cutty. Good work this One Fly, man!!

The Jackson Hole One Fly Tournament was a huge success and ran on September 8-9. Given Only one fly per day, teams compete over the weekend to catch big trout on the Snake and South Fork with the guide serving dual purpose as judge. Congrats to one of my great clients, Lewis Lee for winning 3rd place individual angler high score!!!
As always, the One Fly was fun and intense and I can't wait for next years!

Post One Fly is always incredibly busy here and this year was no different. September is usually simply fantastic fishing due to the flows maintaing around 2200 CFS, the cooler mornings and different weather patterns of fall, and the shots at big fish. If you can set the hook on a weary, subtle cutthroat trout strike this time of year, you're typically going to be rewarded with a nice, fat, fall cutty.

I've had some really great days this summer/early fall on the river with clients and friends alike and to be perfectly honest, although I love my own, personal autumn fishing, I always get a little bummed as it all winds down. With a couple guide days left and a few more possible trips, the season isn't quite over yet and there are plenty of great days left to be had.

The view of the Tetons in the fall can't be beat

Flows at this point have dropped to about 300CFS at the dam and the river is now low and set for winter. Fishing is still great, although sometimes a little slow, and the fall weather is stunning. Please call or email if you have any questions or would like to book a trip.

Here are some pictures from the fishing as of late.
