Fishing Report: 
The Bighorn is still fishing well. Plenty of fish to be caught.  The water is cleared up pretty well and the the weather hasn't been too bad.  Fish are eating the standard stuff for the Bighorn.  Plenty of good streamer fishing as well.  You probably aren't going to see much on top for a while so you might want to leave the dry fly rod at home and pack the nymph rod or the big stuff for hucking big nasties.
