Small Streams

  Teton River in the basin and below the canyon can provide some of the best small stream fishing in the area now. Same story: AM trico activity and PM terrestrial insect activity. Same for Warm River. Water in the upper Blackfoot River is low enough for temperatures dangerous to released trout. Palisades Reservoir tribs, Palisades, Birch (family area) and Bitch Creeks are good places to try. Use caddis life cycle, traditional attractor and terrestrial insect patterns.
Fly Patterns to use:
Harrop’s CDC Water Wasp-Honey
