Guided Fishing Trips in Wyoming -- October

Here's the deal with October fishing on the Snake River in Jackson Hole - while the weather can become variable (with the approach of winter), the fishing can be extremely good. In some years, October fishing for produced, arguably, the best action of the season.

Warm sunny days sandwiched between cool mornings and evenings will produce the best action. The usual attractor dry flies will still be effective, but one should not overlook streamers. With less total water in the river, the smaller fish get "squeezed in" with the larger trout, which begin looking for large and nutritious meals in the form of their smaller brethren. This creates the possibility for good action to large trout.

Baetis and midge hatches can also account for some of the best "match the hatch" dry fly fishing of the entire year.

The action at Lewis Lake in Yellowstone National Park also tends to heat up in October as large browns and mackinaw move into the shallows for the final feeding frenzy of the season.
