Here are a few decent fish from both the Upper Madison and the Lower. The bugs are out in large numbers right now. We are seeing Caddis, PMD's, stoneflies, and a few brown drakes as well.
Dropping rubber legs and stonefly nymphs behind boulders is always a good choice on the Upper. Dead-drifting buggers with a caddis emerger has proven to be a good sub-surface combo on the Lower. On top, the fish were not keying on the salmon flies, but they were hitting the caddis consistently.
Yellowstone Report: Not quite ready. Plenty of bugs out but she is still running a little high and dirty. The water level is dropping and the clarity should continue to improve. The Stone will be happening soon.
