Yeah, I'd never seen that sort of thing before.

Not fly fishing. But I ran across this youtube video of a guy rappelling down a cliff to a cave 25-30 ft above the sea where he fishes, cooks and hammock camps for the night. It's honestly a little crazy looking. I'm sure that the gopro lens perspective makes it looks a lot weirder than it felt...

All that said, I can understand the urge to fish. I can't wait until I can hit my local lake next week.

I could see it just being confusion. Thinking that the third Sat in April was the opener or something. It's not like the WDFW regs are simple to understand. Up in my neck of the woods they say to call 911 and ask for fish and wildlife. Always seemed a little odd to me.

Budget lake boat. Walker Bay. Needs a good scrubbing. https://bellingham.craigslist.org/boa/d/bellingham-row-power-dingy-foot-boats/7738575607.html

A few guys seem to make a living wage off that bounty program. I always wonder how many hours they put into it. Gotta be a lot.

Apparently The Rock is big into fishing? Even sounds like he's fly fished a little. Celebrities, THEY'RE JUST LIKE US! Except, you know, very rich and with time and resources that none of us could ever hope to match. Still, kinda cool. ---

True, there is more that goes into it. The biggest one has to be human stupidity with fireworks/cigarettes/campfires/etc. But drought is a big driver on its own If there's less soil moisture plants/trees dry up and often die more frequently. That becomes fuel for fire. And with more of that...

This is snowpack percentage of normal. These are not good numbers.

Ugh. I mean, I think most of us saw this coming after the winter we had. But still, a huge bummer. The worst part is, next comes the fires.

I hunt turkey sandwiches. Does that count?

That's pretty crazy, I gotta say.

I would suspect there's bass?

I hate the concept of private water. Hate HATE it. Like, makes my blood boil if I think about it too much. I also hate jerks who don't understand that people live adjacent to that water. Don't be loud, don't leave trash, don't be a dick, don't race around in your boat. Access the water but...

New app does indeed seem to run better. A shame that we're still waiting on the electronic licensing. But I suppose better late than never.
