Adjust fishing practices for heat

CHEYENNE — Due to increasing air temperatures across Wyoming, some of the state’s streams and rivers are flowing at warmer temperatures. The Wyoming Game and Fish Department is asking anglers to adjust fishing practices during the state’s hottest stretch of summer. Warmer water temperatures can affect fish survival, especially Wyoming’s trout.
