Sept. 5, 1977 Lamar Lamar Had breakfast with Mary Oreszka and heard about her problems with research funds and Troublesome taxes. Drove to the parking lot near mouth of the Lamar and crossed the Lamar to fish the Yellowstone River on its big sweeping left curve below. In this area you are permitted to keep two fish, and we want some to barbecue. Fished hard during the day without hardly moving a fish, but after 4:30 PM things began to happen. In an hour we had our two fish piece, all between 11 and 14 inches. Both of mine were rainbow/cut hybrids but they jumped and fought like rainbows. He quit as soon as we had our two fish for supper and went back to the car where we lighted the briquette in Woody's portable barbecue. Had welcome drinks while the fire got hot, then put the four trout on. Served them with a toasted roll piece and a sliced tomato. Delicious dinner.
