Big thermal load comes from the Old Faithful area. After mid-June until end of August or later the section between Old Faithful and the confluence of Gibbon is too warm for fishing.
The fishing above the cascades to Lone Star is more of a small fish fishery anyway. Not anything like the lower section.
Better time for Lamar and Gibbon. Too bad the long term damage from Lake Trout and whirling disease for the Yellowstone in lake and down to falls. Firehole has been on the uptick from whirling disease. Slow but steady recovery.
