After years of journaling my days fly fishing the Greater Yellowstone region, I realized the value this information could bring other anglers. In the journal, I tell the story of my fishing trips and go into detail on what techniques worked for me. I detail the weather, water types, flies, and other important information that led to my success or failure.

It’s always special being able to
Skwala’s Means It’s Spring
April 7th – 9th, 2023 As you may know, it has been a good winter here in Montana. The second we begin to think we are out of the cold, another storm rolls through that puts a few more inches of snow on the ground and delays spring fishing for a couple of days. This easter weekend was calling for a high in the 50’s so I took advantage of my three-day weekend to do
