Yellowstone - mouth of the Lamar
Sept. 23, 1979
We made a dinner date for this evening with Mary
Theofar and moreover we agreed to supply the fish - a
risky promise. We spent the day on the Yellowstone River
about 3/4 of a mile below the mouth of the Lamar. Again
we found very slow action on the part of the trout but
we did come up with our limit of two fish each, all
between 13 and 14 1/2 inches. Three of these were Rainbows,
surprisingly. Mostly a rise from a cut, whereas in this
same area several days ago Woody had plenty of action from
cuts, of all sizes.
We saw little game today. An occasional merganser
or harlequin duck came down the river. At Mary's cabin
on Blatchford Creek the coyotes serenaded us at dusk.
Paul Schullery was another guest - he has recently finished
a book on bears.
