Planning for Montana - August 2013
The past eight months have been busy, challenging and rewarding. I must confess, I have put on less than 300 miles on my motorcycle and only one day on the river where I guided a gal fly fishing for trout at the Casting for Recovery retreat. So now that I have a two month break between classes, I can enjoy summer. Which means, time to go fishing of course! Starting off with a trip to the Big Horn River with a group of people through The Fly Angler.
I have met up with my buddies a couple of times in the past two weeks to work out a general plan of attack for our ten day vacation in Montana. All though I have fished Montana ten years (11 if you count this one) in a row, this will only be my 2nd time fishing it in mid-summer.
I'm excited to hit some new rivers that I have not fished before and too see Western Montana. By the looks of it, we will be driving to Ennis. Why is that significant? Because it is more west than Livingston, a town that I have visited once before and fell in love with because of the feel of both the town and the beautiful scenery.
Cigars have been ordered from CI, fishing license purchased online, and I have spent the last two nights in my Man-Room and at the fly shop, fiddling with flies, sorting out rods & reels, checking equipment, and making my "List" of what to pack and in general day dreaming about whats to come. It's been a year since I've taken more than a couple of days off and I am in need of some unwinding time.
My triad will be departing early Friday morning, on the 16th. I'm so excited for the trip to get started!
