Mike and Slammer took third in the derby and their claim to fame was big bottom bouncers and spinners running as fast or faster than cranks. The river should clean up fast and fishermen getting ready for the Outlaw coming up on October 6 th will want to know the river well if they don t want to spend the day in waders. Fishing should be as good as ever in the river and maybe even better since it is so low. Fishermen all the way to Glendive are reporting good catches of walleye. Hunters are busy enjoying the seasons that are open and getting ready for the seasons that are coming fast.
Youth deer season opens in one short week.
Bowhunters who have beat the bugs may want to spend a little extra time in the stand. The 15 th of September has also been the time of the year when antelope are getting real serious about their does and is a great time to be decoying. If the weather warms up it is also the most productive time at the antelope waterholes as the does will bring the herd bucks right in. Chasing bucks become much more frequent at the waterhole as well. Birds hunters are having some success on the grouse but oddly enough the best numbers are over in Montana.
