Jack fished yesterday with Marshall Bloom and Mike Connell on a lower stretch of the Blackfoot River. It was a beautiful day, but no photos were taken. The Blackfoot is a great choice this time of year because the water is a little cooler and there are decent hatches happening. As a bonus, you can’t beat the scenery.
Jack is fishing the Blackfoot River next two days with Lyle Cunningham from Arizona. They will be camping tonight and I can’t wait to see photos and hear about the trip. I will be posting photos from the trip soon.

You will see some smiling faces as Jack Saunders, Doug Nation, and Jack Mauer
spent a fun day on the Blackfoot River near Ovando, MT.
I am posting my favorite fish and scenery photo to the left. It is Jack Saunders (he caught the cuttbow trout) and Jack Mauer (holding the fish). I am also posting a slide show of 8 photos. Enjoy!
