Representatives from the Montana Hope Project will be at the event.
The third Saturday of May marks the opening of the 2012 fishing season on the Upper Madison from Earthquake Lake to McAtee Bridge. Grandpa loved to fish the opener with Dan, friends, and family.

Captain Marty will be cooking his famous gumbo, Michael Gerhart will be preparing steak tips and salad, Elle of Elle’s Belles will be preparing potato salad and desserts, and Vicky Noack of Ennis will also prepare desserts. All proceeds from food sales will be donated to the Montana Hope Project.
