May is always a fun time of year to fish around here. Lots of driving to different rivers. Lots of different hatches. Changing water levels. Melting snow. And so much more. Some days you can drive 2 hours just to find the river too muddy to fish. Other times you are rewarded with the first Salmonflies crawling onto the bank. It is always an adventure. What I like most about May fishing is the variety of different rivers I fish this time of year. In the past two weeks, I've fished the Snake, South Fork, Henry's Fork, Gros Ventre, and Fish Creek. Before the Month is out I will hopefully add the Firehole, Maddison, Lewis, and Smith Rivers to the list and maybe a few others. During the summer we often get into the routine of fishing our home waters. I truly cherish the shoulder seasons when we get to explore the waters outside ouf our area.
