Trouty revisits “A River Runs Through It” – Montana trip
A trip that I have always dream of, to visit and flyfish the state of Montana. Its not very often we get this kind of opportunity to flyfish with a group of friends in “Flyfish country”. 6 of us from different parts of the world gather to flyfish and enjoy Montana for a long weekend. Those that travel halfway around the globe decided to stay and fish the entire week around Montana. A brief description of the places we fished, the first 3days was to be at the BigHorn Rive rin a small town called Fort Smith, no not the Blackfoot River. After this it was just a road trip around Montana. We fished the private Spring Creeks just outside of Yellowstone Park, we fished the Madison River in Yellowstone Park. We visited 2 private lakes, Burn’s Lake and Sitz Ranch to try our luck there as well.
Besides the fishing, we get to see the “Big Sky Country”, the huge expanse of the sky, the mountains, the rivers, the wild animals. It was breathtaking. There are so many flyshops here that it is just unbelievable. We visited like every one of them. Sometimes we will come to a crossroad junction way out in the country and you will find a petrol kiosk, a general store, a takeout place and 2 flyshops!
To me this trip is also like paying homage to Norman Maclean for writing such a good novel.
First stop, Seattle
It’s an 11 hour flight from Shanghai to Vancouver. Upon arriving we took another transit flight of half hour to Seattle. We have 6 hours between us before we board another plane to Billings, Montana. We decided to pay a visit to 2 local flyshops and a outdoor departmental store to get some supplies for the upcoming camp in Yellowstone park.
