I first visited Yellowstone as a small child in 1954 on a family vacation and have not been able to stay away since. As a seven-year-old, I remember standing next to my father as he fished in the Madison River on our first trip. Since then, the park has continued to improve, especially in protecting wildlife and enhancing the fishing experience. There is so much more than fly-fishing, so I hope you set aside enough time to explore the park and take advantage of all it has to offer. Whenever you decide to visit, how long you decide to stay, and whatever you decide to do, the memories will last a lifetime.
