Day 4: Fly Fishing Extravaganza

Our trip included a day of fly fishing intruction provided by Jacklin's Fly Shop in West Yellowstone. Bob Jacklin is a renowned fly fisher and guide and the nicest person you'll ever meet. A young man named Andy was our guide and instructor. Bob says that he's known Andy since "he was a glimmer in his father's eye." Bob has operated his fly shop in West Yellowstone, Montana for 35 years. None of us had done any fly fishing to speak of (or any at all in my case), but we had a wonderful, relaxing, day. After returning from our all-day fishing trip, we visited the Grizzly & Wolf Dscovery Center, where we enjoyed watching and photographing some of the bears and wolves that live there.
