Pam Richmond of Edenton, N.C., learns to fly fish on Friday afternoon along the lower Swan River east of Bigfork. Richmond, who just turned fifty, said fly fishing had been on her bugket list. So, on this visit to Montana, she and her husband and friends purchased a fishing license and went out to watch as she learned. Acccording to Richard Dixon, the family friend who helped teach her they didn't catch any fish, but the goal of the day was more the learning process. He said she looked like she had been casting much longer than one would expect from a first-timer.
