True, Montana has become Tony but one must slide between the poser and the layers of wanting to be there to find the special gift only the humble can sense. The Salmon Fly Hatch has become a mythical part of the allure that bring fly fisher to the Madison River. The hatch is something to behold with these big bugs hovering over the water swarming the willows and then they go away but the trout are looking up. And that bug brings the fish and the fisher from all over the world to the Madison.

The three amigos enjoyed the camping but realized they must pay their tribute to the Madison and extreme pocket water fishing. Then came the "Dean" of the Madison River, Don Prentiss of Tucson who still thought of the Madison as the only river. He ate food like there was not tomorrow not bad for an 86 year old solitary fisher
