Well so much for wanting to go to the Beaverhead today as winter showed up again. After about 10 days of spring like weather, winter showed it's ugly head. I woke up to snow coming down this morning and after four hours of it it is still coming down. While there isn't much on the ground. Maybe about a inch. The cold weather we have it will stick around for about two weeks.

Going to have to change my plans. I think that I will just stay home and read a good western.

I just love it here when this shit happens. I must be out of my mind. But we all can't have the Rain youse guys get to swell the rivers to the high state so you can't fish.Here it snows and when it melts the rivers are the same before it snowed.

Jim ..................Happy as a clam in Montana.

Do you live in Dillon OMJ?

 

[Old Man]

Yeah. But I try to keep it a secret as mumbles keeps trying to send people my way. When it warms up I will change my location back to Dillon. Now it's just someplace warm.

 

[Jergens]

I fished the Beav yesterday, you're not missing much up there right now. The weather today is a far cry from yesterday though, damn.

 

[rick matney]

yeah today was rough.......not really....the lower madison fished awesome despite the fridgid weather :beer2:

 

[Jim F.]

the lower madison fished awesome

Beartrap, or lower? Caught nice Browns there when I lived in God's Country (and one beaver, but that's a wholw 'nuther story . . . )

 

[rick matney]

lower.

 

[Mumbles]

Jim, I'm trying to pimp Dillon MT out as a great tourist spot with a great fly fishing host (in an orange hat). See that lovely fish Mr. Matney has...wasn't he going to take you out fishing. He could have been holding the camera and snapping your fishy photo! Enjoy that good book and when it warms get back at it. Your fishing reports are better than your fussing reports.

Shit. Were you steelheading on the Madison. Nice Rainbow.

And mumbles for your information, Rick was fishing about 100 miles from where I live. I ain't driving that far in a snow storm.

 

[Mumbles]

You drove 900 miles to the Hoh, barely fished and drove home for no fish. What is a mere hundred miles Jim? I know, two wheel drive truck, Montana and snowstorm are a bad combo. Way to play it safe, makes good safety sense.

 

[Old Man]

The Hoh was on a whim. Not something I care to do anymore. Beside the Hoh was a drinking and meeting thing. I met you there didn't I.

 

[Mumbles]

Yeah, you met me there. I handed you a bottle of Jim Beam and you handed me a ration of shit. I'm hoping you'll come back this year too. It was a good time.

 

[Leroy Laviolet]

Yeah, you met me there. I handed you a bottle of Jim Beam and you handed me a ration of shit.

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

 

[Kent Lufkin]

I handed you a bottle of Jim Beam and you handed me a ration of shit.

Now THAT'S some funny shit!

K

 

[jeff bandy]

Yeah, you met me there. I handed you a bottle of Jim Beam and you handed me a ration of shit. I'm hoping you'll come back this year too. It was a good time.

Ed, I thought it was more like wine.

 

[Old Man]

Well I finally cracked that bottle this last fall and I still have some left. And I drank some this Christmas but it didn't take. All I did was get full. I don't drink wine. All I do is whine. And that's the truth.
