It's February 9th, 2026, 8:29 AM, and we're lookin' at a classic winter day on the Bighorn River—mostly cloudy skies with a chance of snow or rain mixin' in, highs pushin' from near 30 up to mid-60s in spots, but windy as all get-out with gusts over 50 mph, accordin' to Don Day's Wyoming Weather Forecast. Sunrise hit around 7:15 AM, sunset 'bout 5:45 PM, givin' us a solid 10+ hours of daylight as that solar spring kicks in. No tides up here in these mountain waters, but river flows are steady from recent melts. Fish activity's pickin' up with the warmer trends—trout are active in the slower eddies, especially browns and rainbows pushin' into pre-spawn mode. Locals report solid catches last week: a mix of 16-20 inch rainbows and feisty browns up to 24 inches, limits comin' quick on lighter lines. Night ice fishin' nearby lakes has been hot for burbot too, per recent Wyoming reports, but stick to open water here to avoid thin ice dangers. Best lures right now? Go with small spinners like Mepps Aglia #2 in gold or silver—they're tearin' it up in the riffles. Jigs tipped with white or chartreuse soft plastics under a bobber for the deeper holes. Live bait? Worms or minnows on a #6 hook can't be beat—fish are huggin' the bottom where it's calmer. Hit these hot spots: the Bighorn Access near Yellowtail Dam for big browns, or Afterbay stretches where the water slows and fish stack up. Bundle up against that wind, check your regs, and stay safe out there. Thanks for tunin' in, folks—subscribe for more reports!
