# 2026 Fly Fishing: What You Need to Know Hey fly fishing folks, welcome back. We've got some interesting stuff happening in the fly fishing world right now, so stick around. First up, Wyoming just made some serious changes to their fishing regs that took effect January first. According to Wyoming Game and Fish Department, they're requiring single-point barbless hooks on the high-traffic stretches of the North Platte River, including the Miracle Mile, Alcova Afterbay, Gray Reef, and Fremont Canyon. The reasoning here is solid—they're trying to reduce hook injuries on catch-and-release fish. But here's the kicker that really caught our attention: they've also banned pegged attractors at Fremont Canyon and Gray Reef, and they extended the artificial flies and lures requirement at Gray Reef all the way downstream to Government Bridge. Oh, and starting April first through May fifteenth, there's a new spawning closure at Gray Reef downstream of Ledge Creek to protect rainbow trout during spawn season. So if you're planning a trip out there, make sure you know these rules before you hit the water. Now let's talk about something that's got the Colorado fly fishing community buzzing. According to Flylab and research from aquatic biologist Jon Ewert at Colorado Parks and Wildlife, the Lower Blue River is dealing with some serious issues. The pellet-feeding programs in that river are being flagged as a major risk factor for fish overcrowding, gill lice infestations, and mortality. And get this—the landowners are now proposing a ten-year pilot permit system for floating anglers as their solution to the fish mortality problem. This is one to watch, because it could reshape how access works on that stretch. Finally, here's something cool for anyone thinking about getting into the game. The annual Fly Fishing Show is making its rounds across the country right now. The 2026 edition started back in January in Marlborough, Massachusetts, and it's hitting Denver this month through the eighth of February. The show brings seminars, demonstrations, new gear, fly tying materials, and basically everything you need to get fired up about the season. If you haven't checked one out, it's a solid day to learn some new techniques and see what's new in the gear world. Thanks so much for tuning in today.
