| Trout photo by Dave Heimes |
Dave sent us a few more photos he took while guiding Susan and Carl Robertson on the Bitterroot River.
We appreciate getting the photos, forwarding them to the clients and posting them for our readers to see. Thanks again, Dave, Susan and Carl. These photos were taken in early September.

| Susan Robertson’s fish on Wednesday – photo by guide, Dave Heimes |
This week has been a great week. Three couples are here that we love to fish with. They have been coming every year for awhile now. During this year’s visit, someone (or a few someones) from their group has fished every other day. They know how to enjoy Montana (even if it rains) and have fun and we are glad to help. It also give us and them an opportunity to work with great guides. Thanks to all of you.

| Polly and her brown trout |
Another Father/Daughter team with Wapiti Waters. Take your kids fishing and you will enjoy showing them the beauty and excitement of the outdoors. Introduce them to an activity that you can all enjoy for a lifetime. Polly and Richard went to the Big Hole with Jack in late August and it turned into a stellar day for scenery and for fishing. The few photos were wonderful showing Polly with her large brown trout she caught early in the day, Richard’s stout rainbow trout and the spectacular scenery. I think Polly snapped the landscape shots (thank you Polly!). See the slideshow below for more photos

| A double hook-up! Thanks Jay. |
Craig and his family come to their Bitterroot home in the summer when ever they can. He is so great about taking his kids and friends fishing on the Bitterroot River. Here are a few photos taken from Jay’s phone (Jay guided these two boys).
Naomi and Jim have fished with Jack for quite a few years now. They bring their motor home which gives them flexibility to fish many rivers. This trip they fished the Big Hole for two days, took a day off, and then fished the Blackfoot for three days. They are fun to be with and passionate about fishing and the resources. Jack really enjoys fishing them. They also celebrated their anniversary on this trip.
