Heading West


Let's see, I left off at the Big Horn. After that we went to the Missouri River at Craig MT. Four fly shops, one restaurant, one burrito cart and a bar. 

The fish were big. 
There were browns. 

And bows. Rog got the biggest but I wasn't able to get a picture of it. 


This smaller one was the only one of his I was around to document. 

We stayed at a state campground. 
The fishing from the bank was difficult because of the large amount of weeds floating down the river. 

Today and tomorrow we are in Ennis, MT on the Madison River. The river is perfect, clear and low enough to wade. The fish a little harder to locate and no pictures yet. 



Few head of cattle moving along the highway. 

Nice setting. 

Fishing in the morning then heading west to start the treck home. 
Weather should be perfect.
