Just got back from a hiking trip in Montana and Idaho. Hot days so rivers were raging and fishing sucked so not troutskys.

Been awhile since blogged so Ill hit the highlights. Caught a few bass and craps. The whites were hitting great at lake viking few weeks ago and I landed the 50 plus flathead. Weather has been crap so fishing sporadic, and the mushroom huntin was so so.

Just took two floats down river turk huntin and did not score, although saw plenty. If i would bother to carry a decoy would make a difference i think. bucka.

heres a few montana pics. one of the yaak river, one of the Kootenai river froms pumas cabin, and the other overlooking Koot and Yaak valley from atop adjacent ridge after a bike ride and hike.
