I just got back from driving down to Phoenix and back with the family (won't do that again with a 6mth old... but that's another story). We went through a snow storm in Idaho Falls so got stuck in town for an extra day. So what else is there to do but go shopping at Wal-Mart for baby stuff and get a box of beer for $15. To my surprise I find out they have just opened their first fly fishing department in the U.S. at this store! It isn’t part of the sporting section but rather has its own whole department. Well I send my wife off and spend the next 45mins scoping out the goods. Flies for .79, breathable waders for $79, pontoon boat for $350 and many other low cost items. I must admit the prices looked good but the quality was marginal. Anyway just thought I would share this with everyone if they are ever in the neighbourhood.
There are lots of awesome looking fishing spots through Montana and Idaho so might have to check these out at a later date.
It is good to be back and happy New Years to everyone. I hope to get out soon as it has been way to long!
Cheers.
