| Fishing the Madison River with Dana, Dustin, Shayne, and distant cousin Curtis Brown who guides on the Madison. Shayne threw a hopper on the far bank and hooked into this 18 1/2" Brown while attempting to navigate and land the fish in the pontoon. But, he managed to land it...and got a great pic! |
 |
| So, only 3 people could fit in Curtis' boat, so one person had to float in the pontoon boat...Shayne and Dustin traded off. |

I should let Shayne publish this post, seeing how it's full of pics of fish I don't know all the stories about. Needless to say, he had a really great time fishing with his Dad and brother Dustin. So much in fact, they saw way more of him than his kids or I did. He spent a couple of different nights at the cabin after we had already come back to Ririe so he could fish in West Yellowstone and some different rivers in Montana with Dustin and his Dad.
It was a much needed vacation for him, so I'm glad he got a bunch of fishing in, b/c he hasn't had a chance to do much in Alaska. Having a new baby kinda slows you down in that department.
Maybe I'll have him narrate this later...just so he can journal some of the great fishing he was able to do.
