About three weeks ago (10/17/25) on the Gardner River in YNP 'somewhere north of Mammoth Campground'. Using an 11' 4wt Euro rod. 24" Brown Trout ate a #12 TJ Hooker nymph. Quick catch/release photo. The hike down and back up the hill from Mammoth campground was well worth it: tally was 15 Browns, 19 'Bows, 3 Yellowstone Cutties…and NO whitefish. No company at all except the three bull elk above bugling and guarding their harems.
