Description
Fish the Firehole like you know it — because now you do. The Firehole River Summer Fly Box is hand-curated specifically for the conditions, hatches, and trout behavior you'll encounter on the Firehole in June before the thermal closures begin. June on the Firehole is spectacular — PMDs, Gray Drakes, Brown Drakes, and Tricos produce some of the best surface action in the entire park. By mid-July the geothermal input warms the river too much to fish, so the June window is everything. This box is built around the Firehole's summer hatch calendar — PMD Comparaduns, Gray and Brown Drakes, and Trico spinner falls. Every fly was chosen with match-the-hatch dry fly fishing on glassy water in mind, giving you exactly what you need to match what the fish are eating at this time of year. What's in the box: 36 flies total — 18 unique patterns, 2 of each — covering PMD dries and emergers, Gray Drake patterns, Brown Drake dries, CDC emergers, and Trico patterns. No filler. No patterns that don't belong on this river in this season. Pro tip from the water: Morning fishing is your best bet in summer — water temps climb through the day and the Firehole can close mid-season due to thermal warming. Be on the water at first light. Whether you're making your first trip to the Firehole or you fish it every season, this box gives you a proven starting lineup so you can spend more time fishing and less time digging through bins at the fly shop. Includes a quality waterproof fly box. All flies are hand-tied to Bozeman FlyWorks standards — the same quality we'd put on our own lines.
