Meanderings

Stalking trout with dry flies. Floating, wading, and camping along the rivers. Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. Winter trips to Mexico.

Changes

Like the season, the waters are changing.  Boulder, Clark Fork, and a couple forks of the Bitterroot were nice breaks.  Smallish fish, but most are compared to the Fork.  Brown ones, rainbow ones, and a cutt or two.  Only saw one big one rise in the Boulder before it closed, and I couldn't get it to eat.  The bushes and trees vary in color depending on elevation, but it isn't peaking yet on the western side.  

Reclaimed and rehabbed 

Kinda fake and ditchy, but holding fish.

Always some in a bridge pool

And another bridge pool

A little more fall-like up the canyon

Wasn't much water

Some deeper runs

Main stem pretty low too

But the river runs through it

    2. I have relatives in Bradenton. I used to snowbird and guide in the Keys, so I really miss Florida in the winter and spring. I might have some Tarpon porn on here from the end of this month when I go to Mexico for 10 days.
