“Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountain is going home; that wildness is necessity; that mountain parks and reservations are useful not only as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as fountains of life.”

Throwin Hoppers ! A Watched Pot Never Boils.





Most fly fishermen "Throwin Hoppers" choose to watch the drift with the "Take" often described as the most exciting part of this style of fishing. Kris however subscribes to the "Watched Pot Never Boils" philosophy which theorizes that trout avoid feeding on flies that are watched intently by the angler. Luck Rules.

Never the less, Kris Scores on a "Hopper" on the Missouri River in Montana !!!

Did you know that grasshoppers are one of the most familiar insect groups in the world and are widely distributed throughout North America. There is an estimated 600 species that have been identified in North America.
