Re: Anyone Fishing?
Mila had never been any place with a lot of bears so having her go to Brooks Falls was great for her. Brooks Falls is well known for having lots of bears there every year when the salmon are running. They have many different ways of catching fish but they all catch enough fish to really put on some winter fat. Not sure how many bears were there but 50-100 would be a fair guess.

Great trip to Bozeman Montana. Beat the Madison River to a froth with the fly rod on Wed afternoon with not even a rise. Only thing that made me feel good was there was only one fish with about a dozen fishermen...and the scenery was awesome!
Thursday we hit the yellowstone and the Gallatin with Rapalas and spinning gear and I caught several respectable rainbows and my first brown trout. Yesterday morning we trolled spinners on Hyalite reservoir and caught about a dozen small Yellowstone Cutthroats. Weather was awesome!

Re: Anyone Fishing?
I fished some of those dead days. I always carry a hook and dig up a worm under a rock and drift it far away from me and the other fishermen. I think the worms get reaction bites, just like a bait rising off the bottom.cape man wrote: ↑Sat Jul 30, 2022 8:36 am Great trip to Bozeman Montana.

But I fished in Canada one year and caught like 2 fish in a week. This year, Luke and I went to Upper Red Lake and spent 7 days there. We were only able to fish about 20 hours to high winds and caught 10 walleyes. My 2nd worst trip ever. The water was mud stained from all the wind. We'd catch fish where we cpuld find clear water. One clear water area had zilch.
Fishin can be damn hard. Nice pics.

Re: Anyone Fishing?
That looks like it was a great trip even if the fishing was not the best. Some beautiful country you got to see and enjoy.
