Montana Cast n Blast Special

Sniz · 10-12-2009, 11:58 AM

Just got back from a fantastic trip to Austin City Limits then to Big Sky, MT to visit my brother. We had a fantastic 4 day fishing and hunting escapade that ended up with 51 downed and collected ducks and dozens of huge trout. God that was an amazing time. It was the 1st trip for my friend Ben to Montana and he was just in shock at the scenary and the wildlife the whole time. I told him it would be like that!!!

A few quick pics of my trip to Montana.......I have already edited over 100 pics from the trip that can be found here: http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q...view=slideshow

Lone Peak in Big Sky

This was our take on only 2 mornings duck hunting the Missouri River in Montana....i'm on the right, my brother on the left.

34 ducks!!! Mallards, Gadwalls, Widgeon, Wood ducks, Blue and Green wing Teal, pintails, ring necks, buffleheads, shoveler.....you name it we got it.

The fishing on the Missouri was off the hook!!!

My brother holding up Ben's 23" brown trout, what a pig!

Nice dark male rainbow

Big 21" Brown that Ben caught

The scenary wasnt half bad either!

and then there was this monster.....

My brothers RO drift boat, this thing is amazing.

My 1st Brown Trout in the boat

My 1st rainbow for the trip

A super colorful 21 1/2" Brown Trout that I caught

Framing this pic in 8x10 for my "gallery" downstairs

Looks like fun - cool pics. I actually took my first trip to Montana this summer for a wedding. We spent some time at Glacier Park. It really is amazing up there.

Lol, that dog is living the dream.

Us Montanans know we grew up in the last great place in the lower 48. Big Sky is some pretty special kinda place, even for Montana. Go hiking in the Gallatin National Forest sometime... its unbelieveable. Largest area above 11,000 feet in the US.

we were hunting there in Gallatin, or just outside of it.......unreal place. Damned cold there last week though!
