One Cold Montana Holiday Week
Temps to negative 12. Too cold. Stay home for the weekend and tie a few flies. Enjoy your family, watch football, and rest.
Or we may see you this weekend. We have a few cabins open for those who want to stay a while.
Shop open Thanksgiving til about noon. Then we will drift home. You should too.
Still no word on the YETI Porch Cooler. But thanks for all of your support.
Think about your 2016 plans this weekend with you fishing buddies. Or your family. Give us a call and get yourself on the books. Sara, Ben, Braden and the rest of the gang will be available for any of your trout needs.
Swing on by and warm up your coffee. Happy Holidays.
