I think I’m more scared of the eagles than a grizz. However we don’t have grizzlies.I failed to mention we spotted a big grizz about 20 yards off of the river while we were floating by, big like the size of a VW bug big. It ran straight up the side of the hill beside us, in a hurry.
My buddy was terrified.
2 hours later I was nearly attacked by a bald eagle that was trying to steal my fish.
The eagle was only about 10 feet above my head, talons out, dropping down to steal my fish. It scared the crap out of me because it came out of nowhere and was so close. I could have swatted it with my fly rod it was so close.I think I’m more scared of the eagles than a grizz. However we don’t have grizzlies.
Is that from the car show in Polson
Hamilton over the weekend.Is that from the car show in Polson
So now we know how the helios got busted.I could have swatted it with my fly rod it was so close.
Meh, I broke the Helios casting a small dry at a lake, not even working it hard. It broke the tip of the butt section just below the ferrule. It was the first time that I've fished that rod since I got it back from the last repair.So now we know how the helios got busted.
Go to bamboo.
Definitely have some wolves around.. Got wolves in your area?
The fishing was amazing, but the solitude was the real treat. I caught a few cutt bows around 18” and a million cuts from 10-13”. I made it out last Thursday before all the other fires kicked up. I managed to brave a storm of biblical proportions on Wednesday night in a hammock tent. Turns out there may be a God after all@ijonesinsp how was the fishing in the Frank?

dont tell that to orvis or they may feel that damage wasnt their flaw!!The eagle was only about 10 feet above my head, talons out, dropping down to steal my fish. It scared the crap out of me because it came out of nowhere and was so close. I could have swatted it with my fly rod it was so close.
And at 10 feet or so, wings spread, talons out, damn eagles are HUGE!
We may be able to cook something up!Pencil me in for the next one!
Was bow hunting up out of Salmon right on the ridge along Montana. Woke up in the morning and had wolf tracks all around our tent. Next morning a couple miles away had grizz tracks about 10 yards from the tent. I know they’re there but I’d rather not KNOW they’re there.I failed to mention we spotted a big grizz about 20 yards off of the river while we were floating by, big like the size of a VW bug big. It ran straight up the side of the hill beside us, in a hurry.
