Default Montana (was what flies to bring)

Warren told me he isn't clavemastering the Montana deal this year, so it's
open for anyone to organize. Someone needs to step in and fill the void
so folks who are traveling a distance can begin planning and making
reservations and...well, you know.

matters)

PS to Asadi - Rachel says hello...


Jeff, I hope Rachel and my wife Daribel get to meet someday soon. I most
definitely want to take Daribel to the West. Offhand, I don't really think
there needs to be a clavemeister (they are handy tho') other than someone to
pick the dates. I know from my single trip of enough places to fish that I
could put someone on water with no problem, I mean the place is loaded with
streams. Actually, one could fish for a week and never leave the Madison.
Fly recommendations would have to come from the local shop.

I've got a decent map or two and maps are easy enough to find. Last year was
roughly July 10-16. I haven't seen on the website that the Side Inn has
raised it's prices...(http://www.slideinn.com)

A little scouting shows that there are many places on the Madison, within a
very few miles of the Slide Inn that have some very decent cabins at very
competitive prices.

My plan is to bring the wife, Daribel and our fifteen year old daughter
(yeah, that's scary but not as bad as leaving her home alone!) and make a
family trip out of it. So I'll take the family around for a day or two, the
wife and I will fish for a day or two while Monica stays at camp, and the
wife and Monica will be on their own with the rental car for a day or two.

At least, that's my plan thus far. Start throwing out ideas boys...
