It was a great visit up to our friends Dave and Tammy and Blackburn’s Kootenai Angler. I can’t believe it took me years to make the trip up to fish with Dave. But, for me lately my fishing has been 2 hours from home in the car or flying somewhere far away rather than a 9-hour drive to northern Montana.
If you’ve been fishing the west for years and not yet tried the Kootenai River than perhaps it’s time to give Dave a call. There’re not many uncrowded rivers these days nor rainbows the size of the one I caught a few days ago. Plus, you might even catch that accidental bull trout. I’m certain you’d enjoy one of the cabins and fishing with one of Dave’s guides. Dave may even rock his restaurant with one of his “Currier Custom Fish Art” banjos!
Granny and I took two days to get home. We drove the entire western edge of the Idaho on the Route 95. The road took us through some unique country and we squeezed in a couple beautiful nights of camping.
For now, it’s back to work in Victor. I have a few art projects awaiting and two articles to get done. I’ll also be doing another Online presentation for a Fly fishing Club and another one for Yellow Dog. Stay tuned for details!
