Big Hole River, MT – Anaconda Sportsman Club – Thursday May 30, 2019
Pictures will be posted later from my laptop, this is from IPad.
These are fish I caught Tuesday 5/28, haven’t got anything in a couple of days. Fished after lunch and got 3 fish one 14 inches and two 12 inches. Two brown trout and one brook trout (I think). Sunny afternoon with small caddis hatch at 2:15.

I actually caught this fish the first evening we were here, a 12 inch Mountain White fish.
Fishing was slow for me and the folks floating the river, water is up a little. Nice warm sunny day. This is the first day we had the heat turned off during the day and not turned back on in the evening. Charged the batteries with the solar panel for the first time this trip. 32 degrees outside this morning and got up to 70.
I went up on the roof looking for a small leak we say at Post Falls, ID. Did not see anything obvious but resealed around a couple of clearance lights.

Pictures Took 10 minutes to upload these while at Ruby Creek with slow cell service.
This is a nice place they will deliver water to your RV and they have outhouses, no garbage. It is a non profit and you pay by donation. I think we will be here until next Monday or Tuesday so we gave them $100.00. I can fish right here at the park and will not have to drive.
Barrett, MT / Dillon – Sunday May 26, 2019
Change of plans, talked to a local guy this afternoon and he said the Big Hole River north of Dillon was fishing really well.
Not sure if we well have any cell serve while we are there.
Barrett, MT / Dillon – Saturday May 25, 2019
Fishing today, still no catching.
Today was the first day we were able to turn the heat off during the day. The news from Butte says temps are 10 degrees below normal. This year Custer State Park in South Dakota got a foot of snow during the same time period we were there last year.
Barrett, MT / Dillon – Friday May 24, 2019
Fishing today, no catching.
Nice day only had a little wind. I at least saw one trout.
Current plan is to move to Madison River and Ruby Creek CG on Monday.
Barrett, MT / Dillon – Thursday May 23, 2019
Fished today and had a good time, not even one strike.
The whole map would not fill in cellphone internet is not usually very good.
It was in the mid 40’s but didn’t seem to cold.
Barrett, MT / Dillon – Wednesday May 22, 2019
Went into town this morning for propane. With the cold weather I am not sure we had enough for the long weekend end. We are parked in more of a parking lot rather than an actual camping site and didn’t want to leave here on a busy weekend.
New camp area.
Did need to move 2 feet to the left from the first time I pulled in so the radio and TV could see the satellites.
Had some thick rain this morning.
Here is the weather report.
