These are all pics from a few weeks ago. Took the boat down a stretch of the Deschutes river below Shears Falls. Fishing was so so, caught a few nice trout, but being on the water and going through a few rapids was why I went. I'm going to try my hand at fishing for steelhead this year with a fly so I wanted to get familiar with this part of the river. More pics......

I'm really excited about our trip here in a few weeks. It will be fun relaxing in Montana at Molly's aunts cabin, which just happens to be close to a nice little stream. I have not been to Yellowstone since I think my early teen years? We'll spend a day there and then to Idaho Falls. I will be floating the South Fork of the Snake with my uncle Paul on a guided fly fishing trip and I can't wait! I think Paul's wife and Grandma and Grandpa Pilkington will take Molly and the kids to Heise (hot
springs/swimming) for the day. Lots of driving coming up but we're still looking forward to it.
