Bison On The Road...


They weren't kidding!



The wife, kiddo and I spent 4 days in Yellowstone at a family reunion. I had never been there before so I was grateful to spend a majority of the time being a tourist instead of an angler. Of course, my angler tendencies came out when we got near water.

Just like in A River Runs Through It this bug landed on me and I REALLY wanted to string up a Bunyan Bug:


Looking downstream at LeHardy Rapids on Yellowstone River:


Upstream at LeHardy:


I turned over some rocks at LeHardy to show the kids why I tie my own flies. This was a chunky stonefly nymph. He had some neighbors but they moved much faster than he did (I can relate :P ):



Yellowstone River at Sulphur Cauldron:


My amazing wife and kiddo:


My attempt at fishing in the Park will follow.

P.S. I love the diversity of bumper stickers in Montana/Wyoming:
