Post from the Road

[Zach Matthews]

Hey all –

I’ve decided to avail myself of the miracle of modern wireless internet technology and do a post from the road series.

[Zach Matthews]

Here are a few from today.

Zach how did you get those Harley guys to stand still long enough? Wish I were there.

[gary henderson]

Very nice….and the color saturation looks great to me. Thanks for the journey, so far.

Zach,

[theboxkid]

That must have been one heck of a drive.

[mike b.]

Nice looking photos.

[Zach Matthews]

Slough Creek was a blast, but I seem to have messed up my knee pretty bad.

Did you ever find WALL DRUG…

[Carter Simcoe]

I’ve been to Wall Drug, that place is crazy.

Nice pics, whats that black reel with the solid, unported back in the last picture with the antlers?

[steve154]

What did you do to your knee? Hope it’s OK…

Did you keep the antlers? They are awesome and would look really cool on the wall in a tying room.

[Zach Matthews]

Hey guys –

Dunno on the knee, it seems to be getting better today though. I wish I could have kept the antlers, but the Yellowstone rules forbid it and they’re kinda hard to sneak out with if you know what I’m saying.

[Zach Matthews]

Oh, and the reel is a Ross San Miguel 2, Carter.

[Rusty Garoutte]

After the first hundred signs telling about Wall Drug, I was ready to pull my Harley over and chainsaw every sign from that point on.

[Carter Simcoe]

Nice, I really like those.

Zack,

I was in Yellowstone in July and am amazed every time I go there. Did you have any luck on the Yellowstone river? I went to Buffalo Ford for the first time and saw many gray drake spinners and PMD’s but no fish. On a brighter note, I fished Depuy’s Spring Creek for the first time and am hooked for life!

Well, we’ve returned from Yellowstone National Park, at least as far as our home base in Arkansas.  It was a great trip.  I landed two fish over 20 inches, one from Yellowstone Lake and one from the Yellowstone River.  Lauren caught a grayling, a lot of brookies, a few fat cutties, and she drew a classic strike from a big 19″er that threw the hook.  Great fishing.  

As I said above, we fished all over the Park, so here are some selected images.  The Photoblog will be front loaded for about a month with these so keep checking for new ones.
