We have divided the fly fishing waters in the Yellowstone National Park into (24) twenty-four streams or watersheds. We realize that this is only one of numerous ways this could be done. By no means should this be taken to mean the categories or sections of waters as we have listed them are equal. They are not equal in any respect. The exception to this is the Yellowstone River. It’s broken into four parts within the park. This is because there are four distinctly different sections of the stream in the park.
Tributary Streams:
Most of these watersheds have tributary streams, some of which are comparatively large. These tributary streams are included along with the watershed streams. Irrespective of how you categorize them, we are covering all of the streams in the park one could rightly call major fishable waters for trout.
Stream Size:
Occasionally we will say “small, medium and large” when we are describing some of the streams. By that we mean small, medium or large compared to other streams in Yellowstone National Park. For example, the Yellowstone River is a large stream and DeLacy Creek is a small stream.
Trout Size:
You will also hear us refer to the trout as small, medium and large. By that we mean small, medium or large as compared to the “other trout in the park”, not other trout nationwide. For example, a small rainbow would be one less than ten inches long, a medium size rainbow one that is ten to fourteen inches long and large size rainbow is one that is fourteen to twenty inches long or even larger.
