Winter is back in Montana for the next 5-7 months. Most of the locals are the hill in BS for another powder day…….West Yellowstone narrowly missed getting pounded with the snow. Shit, we needed it. While November can feel like Winter, there is not one angler/hunter/outdoorsmen that would say November is winter…..winter-like, maybe, but not [...]

One can find lots and lots of rising trout on Hebgen Lake each day. There are flying ants, calibaetis, midges, tricos, damsels and a few caddis hovering around the lake. Hebgen’s elevation is sitting about 2 feet from full and those weed beds are starting to get thick with rising fish. Some days are much [...]

Took a boat ride on Hebgen Lake this afternoon. The wind was light, the sun was high and our fishing kinda sucked…..but….it was so fun to be on the lake. At one point, while running back across to another spot, where we caught a trout, several immature bald eagles were trying their luck with this [...]

Headed up Mnt Washburn a few days ago, this Grizzly was just off the road browsing the hillside. It was early in the day, so we narrowly avoided the inevitable Bear Jam. The rivers throughout the NE side of Yellowstone are dropping, clearing and fishing pretty damn well. The Lamar is still high and crossing [...]

It might take a few years to dry out from all the rain which keeps falling. I saw Noah’s Ark yesterday on the Firehole. There were moose, bears, wolves, bison, deer and elk hanging out on the bow. I think they were drinking Budweiser cans out of an ice cold Yeti Cooler which they probably stole from [...]

Our snowpack is finally melting. Cabin Creek was dirty yesterday afternoon and while I did not see Beaver Creek, I would assume it was muddy too. The yard around the house melted out and bison have been using the much needed bare ground for browsing. A year ago, all of the snow had melted off the [...]

“There are four lines which twist and turn their way through this part of the country mirroring each other along the way. From this little spot in the world, one can see all four at the same time.” - E. Tips on Howard Creek Ranch An old friend of mine pointed this out to me around the campfire, late [...]

Having been way to busy to fish Hebgen much at all this summer, I finally got out there a couple of days ago with my good buddy Brian Worely. He lives on Hebgen for most of August guiding clients. Since BSA doesn’t have the proper GNF permit to outfit the lake, I don’t guide Hebgen anymore. However, I am [...]
