Bighorn River - Montana, USA by Gary David Blount Pdf
Normal 0 The Bighorn River, which runs through the Crow Indian Reservation, opened to the general fishing public in 1981 from action taken by the U.S. Supreme Court. The Bighorn River in Montana begins below the Yellow Tail Dam and After-Bay. The After-Bay was constructed to hold the super saturated Nitrogen water, created by peek power generation from Yellowtail Dam, allowing the Nitrogen too dissipate before entering the Bighorn River. At times the trout below the After-Bay experience high levels of Nitrogen and the trout get Nitrogen Narcosis, the “Bends”; this can decimated the trout fishery. The Bighorn River flows northerly through a wide valley that is heavily farmed and there are irrigation diversion in the lower river divert large volumes of water from the river. The highest trout populations and fishing crowds are in the first 13-miles of river below the Yellowtail After-Bay. The species composition, Rainbow and Brown Trout, in the Bighorn River have fluctuated wildly since the 1981 trout fishing opener. The latest Rainbow Trout population decline is due to Whirling Disease infestation throughout the Bighorn River. The Bighorn River is a large western river with very few places a person can walk across the width of the river. The water is generally clear, except during run-off when water is released over Yellowtail Dam. The shoreline along the river and the many islands are filled with large Cottonwood Trees. The fishing on the river is either exceptional or it is poor. Some of the runs below a riffle-run may contain over a thousand-trout in just a few hundred-yards of river. Many of the guides on the river have their client’s fish nymphs through these large pods of trout. Fishing in this manner can get anyone into hooking fish. The reason is, the trout are stacked in the run like cordwood and while the trout is gilling for oxygen their mouths open and the tippet is pulled through their mouths and the fly inadvertently sticks the fish in the mouth. I have observed this many times while snorkeling.

The Last Wild Road is a raucous, gripping, sometimes terrifying, often hilarious, and deeply meditative journey through the heart of the outdoors in the modern world. Collected from more than 20 years of hunting and fishing cover stories, columns, and adventure tales written by T. Edward Nickens for Field & Stream, this book is a road trip that takes in a huge sweep of the North American landscape—blackwater rivers in the wilds of eastern North Carolina, deserts and prairies of the American West, remote tundra of northern Canada, and the wildest rivers of Alaska. Along every rutted road and rough trail, with a rod, gun, and pen, Nickens meets unforgettable characters—old French-speaking Cajuns at Louisiana squirrel camps, a one-armed fly-tyer in the ancient Appalachians, Pennsylvania brothers who lost their father in a hunting accident decades ago and return to the scene for a powerful, poignant encounter with history. He explores remote wilderness waters to chase trout and ducks, but finds rich meaning, too, in the familiar and close-to-home: fishing with his children, plumbing the forests of local farms, and butchering deer in his basement as a thanksgiving for the gifts of the outdoors. When it comes to hunting and fishing, writing often falls into the categories of where-to-go, the how-do-it, and the-what-to-bring. This book embarks on the question of “why.” Why does the pursuit of game and fish, and the travel to the wild places where they thrive, bring meaning and clarity to living in the modern world? Why do we laugh more, and live more deeply, far from the sidewalk? If you’ve ever felt that way, you’ll find yourself in The Last Wild Road.
