Catching Yellowstone's Wild Trout: A Fly-Fishing History & Guide

by Chris Hunt, Mike Sepelak (Foreword)

This history and guide to the fly-fishing waters of Yellowstone National Park is a loving homage to the region's iconic wild trout.

Yellowstone National Park is home to some of the most storied destinations in the history of fly fishing. Casting in the Firehole River is like going back in time to when bison roamed nearly every meadow in the West. Restored to their natal streams after near extinction, native Arctic grayling can once again be plucked from icy water at the foot of breathtaking waterfalls.

Meanwhile, a daylong hike into true wild country rewards an angler with a chance to catch trophy native cutthroat trout on a lonely mountain lake. In Catching Yellowstone's Wild Trout, local journalist and experienced angler Chris Hunt explores the rich history of these beloved and bountiful waters.

I’ve read all of Chris’s books and enjoyed them all. I read this book in one sitting. I’ve never fished YNP, but now I want to. I think this book has good information, but honestly I would have liked more stories interspersed throughout the chapters. Even so, it’s still a good book.
