Oh... also.. is western Montana home to most of the lakes of the state? I like to boat fish with my boy. Is Montana cracking down on motorized boats the way other states are?

Yes, Western Montana is where the lakes are. You can use motorized boats pretty much anywhere, for now. |

Oh give me a break ! Look at a decent topo map, I'm in North central Montana and this place has frigging lakes all over. Hundreds of smaller ones where you never see anyone and quite a few huge ones.

You're right, but somehow those lakes just don't make it into the public consciousness -- even for MT residents. How many people spend a vacation at Fort Peck or Tiber Reservoir? Tiber is just this huge puddle in the middle of the grasslands with not a tree in sight, doesn't look like anyone's idea of a resort area... but if you want peace and quiet it's hard to beat, if only because you'll be there all by yourself, just you and the grass and the wind.
Dang, I just described my notion of heaven on earth  |

This is my first time looking at Montana threads. I just read mtboys joke from 7/08. I laughed so hard. By the way, I live in Bootjack,CA. My brother lives in Superior,MT. So what do you think of that area? Like other small town Californians(I'm actually 4th generation Oregonian), too many city folk have moved here,Jacked up property prices,crashed property prices, stripped and paved anything they deemed unsightly. My husband & I just want to go fishin'. And dang it, I want his butt back huntin' again too. I know we don't want any city, but my bro says Superior is nice andsmall.Comments????

On Tiber on "The Island" near the marina on the right side is a road that goes down to a great spot that motor-homes cant get down into. There are trees, the wind blows off the lake towards you so bugs aren't a big problem, and the water is great. We had the place to ourselves.
Now as to Superior, It's a fine little river town but it is right off the freeway also. We went to a rodeo there at the county fair and the announcer stopped the rodeo at one point to tell a joke. Here is the joke (mind you you can walk about with beers at this fair) !
Joke; Why do they give Viagra to the old guys in the old folks home ?
Answer; So they don't roll out of bed !
