Teton river fished it today 11/17/11 at bates bridge and just back rowed up a ways it was pretty windy out as it has been for the past few days. There as been a few midges and very few bluewing olives and when they are there the wind has blown them off so riser action is far and few between for now.
the teton is money right now! fishin with hopper dropper set up. streamers are doing great to. go out and have fun!!
The river has risen two feet in the past 48 hours and is running around 2300 CFS. Fishing will probalby be tough until the levels start to settle down or stabilize.
On the lower river twitching big foam patterns against the bank is working good with all the hoppers on the water. A very effective method which is not used very often is swinging flies. Cast across stream and swing the fly just underneath the water in front of the fish. Good flies for this are size 12-16 soft hackle, renegades, and grifiths knats.
The best fishing is in the valley section up towards Driggs and Victor. Use hoppers, beetles, and ants. You can also use streamers especially with the cooler weather coming.
It's time to use your big hopper patterns. Use hopper dropper set up with any bead head pattern a foot or so from the hopper. Don't forget pmds, caddis, and in the evening streamer patterns.
Come check out our selection of terestrials, we have ants, beetles, hoppers, and big attractor patterns like fat alberts and chernobyls.
It's fishing well with streamers, pmds, caddis, and hoppers.
The river is fishing good. Use pmds, caddiss, and yellow sallies. Try using some hopper patterns as well and streamers.
It's fishing great, get out while the flows last. The canyon is a legendary section of river on many peoples to do lists but it has some technical rapids. We guide that section of the river and would be glad to take you. Those spots fill fast so let us know as soon as possible if you would like to go.
The river is fishing great. Use caddis, pmds, brown drakes, and rusty spinners.
