Green River fly fishing report – Pinedale, WY 5.9.14

The Green River just outside out of Pinedale, WY has been fishing well recently.  Flows had bumped up over 1000 cfs with some warm weather at the beginning of the month, but have dropped over the past few days and the Green is clearing.  Water clarity is three feet and the trout are feeding on nymphs and streamers.  Double nymph rigs with Rubberlegs trailing Princes or San Juan worms have been effective.  Streamers are best on a sink-tip line to help get the fly in front of the trout.  Olive Wooly Buggers, JJ’s Specials, and Natural Dungeons have been the ticket to finding some larger trout.
