Fly Fishing Mosquito Hell in the Heart of Yellowstone 

The lookout view was amazing. Whole trip is so peaceful!

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.

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!

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

Thanks for taking us along, that was an awesome trip. 🌲👍🏻

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.

Incredible video Mr. Mills Thanks for sharing with those of us who can't experience it in person. Made my day.

Loved the elk pool party, the fishing was great, and the wildflowers gorgeous 🌷🌸🌼

what a relaxing video. I work in a psych ward, pretty crazy night tonight and this was just what the Dr. ordered to put me at ease. Thank you for letting us follow you around, Stan!

Another half hour of my life well spent. Thank You.

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

Always a treat. Thanks, Stan and friends. 👍😎🇨🇦🌲🦌

Beautiful. Thank you.

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.

30 minute Stan Mills video. Heaven.

Beautiful video. I loved watching the fishing and such a beautiful place to camp.

Spectacular video, thanks so much for sharing!

24:07 - Great unplanned fly-by! Love your videos and your artwork. Thank you for introducing me to backcountry Yellowstone and vicinity. I can’t wait to make my first trip very soon.

Big and Wild Cutts! Nothing better. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful video… I too loved the flowers….Such beautiful scenery…

Thank you, Stan! As always, wonderful captures and great sounds of nature in our beloved YNP.

Every scene is like an artists painting! Thank you for sharing.

Nice video! Love that park ! Too bad it gets so many people.

I will for sure watch your films till the end of my days!

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.

Stunning landscapes! An excellent video. Well done Stan.

Nice looking fish being caught.

Those are some beautiful, good sized trout! Can't wait to catch a few this summer!

Well that was an awesome hiking camping experience to heart lake . Would love to go their someday. Loved all your beautiful pictures . Great to see a pika again very rare. Lots of fish an nice size they were having good catches. Thanks again great job to the top of Sheridan.

Thank you for this!

Still a beautiful and thoroughly enjoyable video, even without big critters ❤️💕

Just awesome!!!!

Excellent!!!

Great video as always! 😎🇺🇸🦌

Wild park strawberries! I hate strawberries but ran across some on the way to Grebe Lake twenty + years ago. Man those were good.

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.

What was the animal at 7:09? A beaver? Beautiful scenery, beautiful wildlife, beautiful flowers 🌸. Cute frog 🐸, too! Thank you 🙏! Not crazy about snakes .

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.

Its a good thing your friends fish or you would go hungry!

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

hiked to riddle lake a few days ago, beautiful but sadly didn’t fish it at all

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

I hate those creepy mosquitoes

Any fishing tips for heart lake area ? First time in the area in August for a few nights . 9ft 5w pole . Just starting out

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

Si what are they snagging?

Were the Elk in the pond due to wolves?
