\u2018Twas a smoky day in the mountains. The pic above is from the early evening. The smoke had cleared a bit by this time. The smoke was so bad during the day we found that no amount of water could quell the tickly throat and annoying coughs. Everything had a reddish\/yellowish tinge.<\/p>\n
Paul checked a few more Yellowstone feeder streams during the day today. All were dry as a bone. Some fishing advice, huh? The plan is now to fish the big river. After a good discussion with our next door neighbor \u201cDutch\u201d, Paul headed to the big river up-stream from the boat launch in search of a fallen tree and rocks to fish around. A 20 yard walk through tall grasses imagining what it will be like to get bit by a rattler, a 5 yard push through woody bushes leaving scratches on upper and lower body alike, and a walk up the river in ankle deep ice water with numb feet didn\u2019t yield any fish but taught Paul the importance of a large casting area for fly fishing. He must have retrieved his fly from the bushes a half dozen times before abandoning fly fishing for spinner fishing. He thinks tomorrow will be a day to leisurely fish near the boat ramp.<\/p>\n
