Big Hole Dairy Cows

Fished the Big Hole River yesterday after going to a work meeting in Butte. I wanted to fish dries but had to switch over to the nymph rig and immediately started catching fish. Caught plenty of browns and white fish. The browns seemed to hold high up in the run with the white fish in the tail of the run. It was a beautiful day after having some early fall weather the days before. The mountain rages all had new snow on the peaks contrasting with the blue sky of the day. When I stepped into the river I was met with a big bird with a white head in the cottonwood above me and two of the strangest dairy cows I have ever seen. Good day to get out.
