WOT 210: Hopper Fishing Tactics and Adjusting to Dramatic Weather Changes on the Yellowstone River with Evan Keene

August 21, 2024 • Jason Shemchuk, Wadeoutthere

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Evan Keene from Livingston, Montana. Evan fell in love with fly fishing after his father took him on a fishing trip to Alaska after high school graduation.

From then on he was learning all he could about the sport while making the drive from his home state of Tennessee to fish the Little Red River in Missouri as much as possible. Finally, Evan took a job in Montana, that got him out on the river more often, and eventually into the guiding business. Now, Evan is in his first year of running his own fly shop, Hatch Finders, in the Yellowstone Valley, with his close friend and business partner.

We discuss summer hopper fishing, adjusting to dramatic weather changes that bring snow and rain, as well the Yellowstone River.
