Had an extra day off this weekend so decided to take a first-hand look at the Fork to see what's really happening. My clients reported salmonflies a week ago, and I've wondered if it's too early for drake's. What I found out was I'm a little late for salmonflies, early for the drake's, and everything else hatching was blowing to Yellowstone. The two mornings were calm to windy fishable, but after that it was gale force in the 30 mph range. I caught some fish on caddis, and had a few eats on a salmonfly.

| Perfect low water |
 |
| Bright and sunny first day |
 |
| In the house, but not being eaten |
 |
| Judging from this, I missed the hatch last week. |
 |
| Still a cool place to be |
 |
| Perfect cloudy calm morning on day two |
 |
| No risers here despite perfect water |
 |
| Fish were mostly in the middle of the river. |
