Took a weekend trip to Missoula to fish a few of the many rivers of the area. This time of the year you can wade fish almost all of the rivers. The creeks in Missoula are bigger than most rivers I am used to fishing. Standing in the Blackfoot river swinging a fly rod sure feels much more intense than the rivers I am more accustomed to fishing. Not a huge float fisherman, but the Blackfoot is on my bucket List for 2017 to float.
A few scenery pics.....
Mainly caught Rainbow & Cutbow the fish were hard fighting acrobatic leapers. Most have caught 15+ per day ( that's not including the Whitefish I caught) most fish were between 15& 17". Plenty of Bull trout chasing them to the net.
This Cutthroat was camera shy....
Great fishing; great times!
