Yosemite Fly Fishing Report

Steve Slater reports on 5.31.18

Lyell Peak

Our two-day Yosemite Fly Fishing Schools (YFFS) hosted with Lost Coast Outfitters and Sierra Fly Fisher are right around the corner and we are taking registrations! Dates are June 23-24, July 21-22 and August 11-12. On September 15-16 we will split the trip with one day in Yosemite and one day on the East Walker. 

Five different species of Trout inhabit the park. Rainbow, Brook, Brown, Golden, and Cutthroat. The YFFS will be based in the Tuolumne Meadow high country of the park. Tuolumne Meadow is at the 8800 ft. elevation. All of our outings will be at that elevation or higher with some destinations being over the 10,500 ft. mark. 

These are the waters where the YFFS has had its roots for over 20 years. Dry flies are the rule here rather than the exception. You will learn all aspects of stream fishing including fly selection, leader construction, casting, line control and that all important “drag free drift”. These two-day outings are always a steal at $395. Call Steve at Lost Coast Outfitters 415-483-2278 to reserve your spot and feel free to call us with any questions. See you in Yosemite!
