That'd be a very cool way to travel the Upper Missouri. You'd leave a

of wading fisherman wondering, "How'd that guy get out there?" if you
stashed the kayak in the bushes.

Now that would be funny! maybe I could fish with a little
inflatable kiddy beach ring attached to my wading belt!


Try e-mailing a rafting company (like near Glacier) and pretend to want
to
buy one to fish the Smith, "But your not sure if it's a good idea."
Chances
are they won't suggest buying one if they didn't think you could handle
it.
Or someone may ask to join your Smith permit and show you the ropes...or
paddles...or something.

The permit will be full, I m tagging along with some folks who are
just going to raft. Somebody s got to carry all the extra stuff G
But I ll try your suggestion.

Has anyone here gone down the Smith? I imagine it runs differently
according to the flows. I ll be going late June and should it be
fairly low then as we haven t had all that much snow , as Warren seems
to be hogging it all ....
