    The trout grabbed my attention, but the flowers and their intense color blew me away. Another great video. Thank you.

      Those yellow flowers during the first part of Stan's video caught my eye also. Can anyone tell me the name?

    This video gave me a lot of inspiration for my trip with friends. We caught a bunch cutthroat between 13 and 23 inches from shore at heart lake. The entire shoreline was good, but anywhere cold water was flowing in was dynamite. Just incredible fishing. Also, a stock outfit brought in an inflatable raft and let us use it. We paddled out and had instant action vertically jigging for Lake Trout out in deep water. An unbelievable trip. We started at the heart lake trailhead and finished at the south boundary trailhead on the snake river. The upper parts of the snake (10-12 miles from south boundary) was unbelievably good fishing, too. Trip of a lifetime. Thanks for the video!

    This is incredible Stan! Wonderful walk in the woods. Also THANK YOU SO MUCH for not adding any additional music to drown out the natural sounds like every other video on this platform.

      I agree, nothing beats the sounds of nature.

    Awesome. I’ve heard there are a lot of bears south of the lake. I was in and near the park with my uncle the week following the 4th. We did 3 separate day hikes into the Black Canyon and fished the Yellowstone River. No mosquitos thankfully, just salmon flies the size of hummingbirds. The fishing was incredible! No bear sightings while fishing but had a surprise encounter with an old resting bison bull that had not a care in the world that we were there. We also fished Soda Butte and the Lamar but got absolutely pounded by the wind.
    My uncle just informed me the conditions have deteriorated to the point of forced closures in the park. Water is getting warm and low.

    What a good-looking fish and a fantastic meal while camping overnight. That's how the old ones went shopping before grocery stores and I bet there were less diseases.

    This brings back awesome memories of taking the packraft out on Heart Lake and catching dinner for our group of 4 at the Hideaway b/c site. Heart Lake is a magical place. Never seen so many skeeters in my life tho

    Beautiful scenery! 😍 My husband & I feel similarly about the wildlife in the south, however, I shared this with him & he’s a fisherman. So, I suppose I’ll be enjoying the scenery & practicing my photography! Thanks, Stan! PS Glad the mosquitoes didn’t carry you away.

    Great trip Stan! I’m doing a 5-day backpack from South Entrance to Heart Lake at the beginning of August. I hope the mosquitos have calmed down by then.

    • @alsyoutube

      I was there August 2022, 2 months after the terrible flooding. Mosquitoes were not terrible at all. Present, but not terrible.

    Had to look up the fishing rules for Lake Heart , Catch and Release. Man-O-Man one of those Trout for breakfast in the morning , Yummy. I release our native fish except one ( No Trout ) when camping here in Florida , which I call Catch an Cook.

    May I ask what dry flies your group was using while fishing Heart Lake?Thank you Stan for another wonderful video. Yellowstone was my favorite go to place when I lived in Colorado. I miss it terribly, hoping to go in September

    • @larmolarmo
      @larmolarmo 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Basically just generalized mayfly patterns like an Adams when the area opens on July, 1. Then add hoppers, beetles, ants and such in late August/early September.

  • @tampadan7128
    @tampadan7128 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nice video as all of yours are. Just wondering……what type of snake was that? 😎

    • @larmolarmo
      @larmolarmo 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Terrestrial Gartersnake, (Thamnophis elegans). Their range extends to considerable altitude and are common around wetlands.

    Went there about 3 weeks ago, those mosquitoes were the drawback lol

    • @larmolarmo
      @larmolarmo 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Before it opened? It's in a bear management area and doesn't open until July 1.

    • @larmolarmo
      @larmolarmo 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh, I guess you mean Yellowstone National Park. :) Even more mosquitos at Heart Lake, lots more.

      Ervin, Go there the first part of July and you will understand. Just plan on dealing with all the mosquitoes.

      I think they were trying to get out of the biting deer flies.
