Libby Dam holds back the waters of Lake Koocanusa to form the Kootenai River. The Kootenai stretches 485 miles from Canada, across the border into Montana, back into Canada, and then into northern Idaho. The Kootenai empties into the Columbia River.
A few years back I tried to fly fish the river with limited success. The water was too much river for me to handle. My brother-in-law Aaron caught more than a few. The Kootenai isn't very wide but it's current is vicious. As I peddled along its banks the churning water reminded me of my feeble attempts of trying fly fish on it.
