Montana Fly Fishing in the Rain: Heaven!
One thing that doesn’t change though every day I see at least 4 or 5 drift boats with die-hard fisherman casting their flies. Just a few moments ago one of those fisherman caught a 20+ inch rainbow.
He deserved that catch, its cold and wet out there! I could see from the smile on his face as he was bringing in his catch that cold and wet were not in his vocabulary. He removed his rain hood and glasses while the fishing guide kept the netted rainbow submerged in the river, when the fisherman was ready the guide handed him the net and fish and took a picture of the fisherman and his trophy rainbow. I can only imagine the stories that will be told in front of the fire tonight!
Other than a few brave fisherman not mush has been stirring along the Missouri River, the Canadian geese were out awhile this morning before it really started to rain. Two pelicans flew upriver and came floating back past the Lodge, they are beautiful birds in flight but rather ugly when landed, or floating.
