Rainbow Trout
For rainbow trout near Burlington, Wyoming, focus on the Greybull River and its tributaries. The Greybull, fed by snowmelt from the Absaroka Mountains, offers classic freestone river fishing. The best time to target rainbows is generally from late spring through early fall. The spring runoff can make the river high and murky, so wait until the water clears. As summer progresses, hatches of mayflies, caddisflies, and stoneflies become more prevalent, providing excellent dry fly fishing opportunities. In the fall, as the water cools, the trout become more aggressive as they prepare for winter. A crucial tip: check the river flows before you go; the Greybull can fluctuate rapidly depending on snowmelt and rainfall. Access is generally good along Highway 14/16/20, but be mindful of private property. The rainbows in this area are known for their vibrant colors and willingness to take a well-presented fly.
