North Middle School Fishing Club at Cow Creek Reservoir.

Great Falls' North Middle School Fishing Club
2008 trip to Cow Creek Reservoir

The "NMS Hooked On Fishing Not On Drugs" club had a great trip on May 10, 2008 at Cow Creek Reservoir. I can give you a hint as to where the reservoir is. It was close to Lloyd, Cleveland(Montana not Ohio), Cow Island and Wareck, or about 3 hours from Great Falls and 50 miles of that gravel. Not the edge of the earth -- but close. It was a long trip but the kids saw a lot of wildlife.

Kids came from NMS, CMR, Roosevelt and Simms High school and home schooled . Also, special thanks to David Sergent as our cook and Dick Headley Bob Bahr, Alex Ferguson from the local Great Falls Walleye Unlimited.

The downside is that only one fish was caught. That was by David Barnhardt, so fishing was slow.

This is the last fishing trip of the school year but we do have couple projects to complete like installing a handicapped dock at Wadsworth Pond on May 31st. What a project this ended up being. It took several grants and a lot planning to create a place where the wheelchair-bound public can enjoy fishing. -- Pat Volkmar
