We’ll be a little late in getting posts up today – off to the Madison early (more due to work schedules than anything else). For the first time this year there are a few little thunderstorm cells wandering the neighborhood early – thunder in Bozeman this morning at about 0520. Should see some bugs this morning […]

We’re a bit late with posts today. Jake and I were on the road at 4 AM to grab a set of pics on the Madison in Yellowstone this morning. Talked to a gas station clerk at about 4:10 who swore he’d seen Elvis recently. I’ve heard he’s in and out of Bozeman quite often, […]
Jake and I have to run to Missoula today for business; we’re looking for a venue to host an event over there and couldn’t get it done this weekend given the holiday. We left about 7 this morning and are going to keep a record of every fishable water we drive over or see between […]
We’ve had an astounding number of inquiries the past two days asking where we’re fishing this weekend. Most of our team are fishing their home waters this weekend. Missouri River Steve has floats booked every day for the next 26 days on the Mo; Al the Pal is fishing the West Fork (of the Bitterroot) […]
Ever get a little too much on your plate? Like the giant hamburger (I suggest the ‘Cardiac Arrest’ at Burger Bob’s when you’re in Bozeman) that takes two waitresses to carry out to the table……. Too much on our plates describes the situation that at least Jake and I have been in over the past […]
We’ve just fired off the 4th issue of the Good Chi Newsletter this morning. There are waters that remain fishable in the area, mostly tailwaters as you’d expect, and the Firehole, upper Gallatin, and even the Madison in the Park are fishable (particularly the Firehole). Congrats to Bob on winning this week’s Rivers in Motion river […]
As some of you have no doubt noticed, most of us here at Chi Wulff are Star Trek fans. I recently found this great tribute video to one of the most oft repeated phrases in Star Trek: He’s Dead, Jim. I couldn’t resist.
Mark and I decided to run down to Hebgen yesterday afternoon after I got off work to give the ice out fishing a try. The jeep was having some alternator trouble, but we wanted to give it a shot anyway. Nothing like a little car trouble to add some excitement to a fishing trip. Hebgen, […]

Due to an increasing number of requests to do so, and a little more web knowledge, we have decided to drop registration for commenting on the blog. This is something we have been meaning to do for some time, and we have been prodded along by our readers to do so as well. It has […]
Fly fishing is an amazing avocation (vocation for some). Most folks who plow their way through the fly fishing blogosphere appreciate and value the rich rewards of the sport, and don’t need to be convinced of such. I had an absolutely fascinating experience today that has once again reminded me of how rich and varied […]
The entire team here at Chi Wulff is pleased as punch to announce the delivery today of our first Good Chi newsletter. I’m almost as happy has Larry Hagman used to be all the time on I Dream of Jeannie. She that show was inspiring. Missouri River Steve claims to dream of Jeannie now and […]
Mark and I, as we often do on days when work in the real world seems overwhelming, decided to make a quick run out to the Gallatin this evening. We ended up hitting several of our favorite spots in hopes of clearer water, but the whole river is pretty muddy right now. The fishing was […]
Somehow I got roped into helping Jake move here in Bozeman this morning and early afternoon. He snapped the picture above as I was carrying a load down the path to where we parked the truck. And I thought I was trying to save what’s left of my poorly spent knee cartilage for stumbling around […]
Yesterday, Mark and I just had to get out of town. The sun was shining, it was warm, and the walls of my office seemed to be closing in on me. Both of us had been working on projects for another business venture of ours. Needless to say, it was boring as hell. After some […]
