"Flyfisher's Guide to Wyoming".
Probably the best thing for your friend to do is to stop in a
shop.
Hoppers weren't quite ready to do their thing, though I have
heard of various successful hopper stories respective to Slough Creek.
It's always useful to take along some Stimulators for the golden
stones in various places that will likely show up. Caddis, several
species, are active right now. Also, PMD's and the occasional Green
Drakes and Flavs. Callibaetis patterns work well on Yellowstone Lake
during mid-day, as the callibaetis are just starting to pop.
A good 5 weight and floating line should work
well.
Be ready for gobs of people, depending on which water is
fished!

Your friend should
take all his trout gear, tackle and flies. There is alot of different kinds of
moving and still water. I live in Bozeman, MT., am here for work during the
summer, which is o.k. because anyone who lives in montana knows that summer is
the worst time of year to fish, just too damn crowded with tourist's.Summer is
time to go alpine fishing. We go back to our beloved waters when you're all
gone. I prefer a 5 wt. for the Yellowstone, Snake , Gallatin, Madison etc..I
prefer a 3 or 4 wt. for the backcountry spring creeks.
If your friend has
never fished Yellowstone, he should buy a book so as to take full advantage of
his trip in his alloted time. A good guide book is "Montana Fly Fishing guide"
EAST. by John Holt. It will answer all you need.

A friend of mine is going
to the Yellowstone park next week. As I've
never fished the rivers in the
park, I can't give him any advice
concerning rod, line, flies.... that he
should bring.
I you have any suggestion, comments, advice, it would be
greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Vincent
