Gallatin - I was able to get out on the Gallatin earlier this week and the river was in great shape. The water is running clear and cold, with clouds of goldens, caddis, and a few salmonfly in for good measure. Those feisty 'bows were actually jumping out of the water for just about every dry I put in their general vicinity. Cannot personally report on the best nymph patterns, but they should eat well regardless.
Madison, Firehole, and Gibbon - As I stated last week, the rivers on the west side of YNP are just too dang hot to fish for the foreseeable future. The Firehole has officially reach 80 degrees consistently, with the Madison and Gibbon (below the falls) following the same pattern. Just fish the Upper or the Gallatin!
Northeast Corner - Still just a bit too fast for my taste. Should be ready to fish in a week or so though, if this rain doesn't blow the rivers out.

Gallatin - The Gallatin has been fishing a lot better recently, with plenty of bugs (caddis, PMDs, stones of all varieties) in the canyon and Salmonflies closer down the river past Big Sky. Make sure your dry box is well stocked with some gold or royal chubbies, water walkers, and yellow sallies and see it for yourself!
