For St Patrick’s, and in mind of my grandfathers:
Thanks and praises, thanks to Jesus,
I bet on the Bottle of Smoke.
I went to hell and to the races,

The day being clear, the sky being bright,

Soft hackles can be a great approach in lots of situations, including finicky rising fish. I’d probably choose a 14 or 16 in caddis colors if I only got one, but last summer I used everything from 18 or 20 (midges on the Owyhee) to 8 or 10 (drakes at Railroad Ranch.) Different sizes, colors...
This thread hasn’t focused on one part of the film: the idea of 50-million members of the “Outdoor State” and its potential political weight. That’s ~10x larger than the NRA’s membership, maybe 8x the size of the US Jewish community, 3x the number of union members, slightly larger than the...

That picker there in trouble, boys,

If we ever get to heaven, boys,

Previously mentioned wind farm = 1000 megawatts = average Snake River Dam = ~150,000 houses worth of pv panels.
