In early May the paddle fishing is good on the Missori River. Morgan, Nicholas and
Ethan met up with Dan and the four of them met Grandpa Doug near Lewiston, Montana. Finding a good spot on the river to camp and dock the jet boat was their first mission. The jet boat got bogged in a sandbar but with some determination, good ideas and a heavy throttle got them out of there. Sand does a number on jet boat motors, but can't just leave it there! The boys caught some great fish from 25-80 pounds! The one Morgan caught was 78 pounds, Ethans around 35, Nicks around 75 lb's. Way to go guys! After leaving the river the boys headed for Dodson, Montana to see their Grandmother Wanda and family living nearby. Only bummer was making up a week of school, but I'm sure it was worth it!

Speaking of school, Ethan got a 4.0 this semester and Morgan did great too. Morgan took the ACT and got a score of 25. (Little history here...Morgan missed the first scheduled test due to being in Idaho, and then the night before the second scheduled test, he remembered at 12:30am and had to be at the testing center at 8am. Nope, no preparation so he actually did pretty good. Good job Morgan and Ethan with your studies!
