Took this on a recent trip. I’m not sure where the blue came from other than maybe the sky reflecting of the surface water. Anyway, I kind of like the effect.

We’ve already written about anticipation a couple of times this year – Quinn did back in August and I did back in July.

There’s another kind of anticipation in the fly fishing world – a more immediate and pressing anticipation.

Whether it’s at the ramp getting the boat and gear rigged, standing on the bank watching emergers disappear in flashy swirls or even standing by the pond right before the rain starts – that final pause to rig before stepping into the watery world might be the richest anticipation of them all.

You’re there.

The drive out to the river is history.  Your buddies are already rigged.  First fly decisions must be made now.

Time for the final piss before zipping up the waders.

Line up the guides, thumb the reel in, thread your line and tie one on.

It’s time to go.

Anticipation. How sweet it is.

Hot off the FWP press yesterday -

Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP) is accepting public comment through Friday, June 24 on a proposal to extend the float fishing season on Rock Creek, east of Missoula, due to unusually high river flows that have prevented most spring floating opportunities this year.

Typically, Rock Creek closes to fishing from boats beginning July 1, but FWP Region 2 Supervisor, Mack Long, says that this year, without an extension, anglers may get little or no time to fish from a boat due to extraordinarily high early season flows.

If approved, all anglers, including members of the public and outfitters and their clients, would be allowed to fish from a boat on Rock Creek through Friday, July 22, 2011.

To comment, email Sharon Rose at shrose@mt.gov or call 406-542-5540 by 5 p.m. on Friday, June 24. The FWP Commission will make a final decision on the proposal via conference call.

We say hell yes.

The Plan:

  • Speckled Trout
  • Eat Oysters
  • Go Crabbin’
  • Hit the Beach
  • Get a Sunburn
  • Waste some Time

Getting gear together and finishing up some flies.

Hot damn.
