...people does it take to film a Simms promo? About a dozen people, one barking dog, seven cars, and an entire boat launch. When you see it, I'll be the grumpy old man at the launch wanting to launch his boat while NOT wearing any Simms waders. :) The spey bro aura was so thick you could cut it...

$2500 My neighbor has decided to retire from fishing and asked me if I knew of anyone that might be interested in his gear. We decided to start with his boat. This is the boat Larry would take up to Sheridan and other BC lakes every year. 1976 14' Starcraft that he purchased brand new. Comes...

Public service announcement: It is not legal to bring a caught Steelhead into your boat while you take pictures or row to shore for pictures. If we can't do it right, and police ourselves without being told to shut up and fuck off, then it won't be long before we'll be unable to do it at all...

I have a Regal vise that I bought 30 years or so ago and I noticed the other day that it had been hard to squeeze the handle to open the jaws. In fact it may have been that way for several years but it wasn't until this steelhead season that I noticed it was problematic getting the salmon sized...

This spate of really nice weather is messing with the mind a little bit. I had planned on fishing right through it. The grass needed cut so I did that yesterday so I could fish this week's opener. I noticed I need to do some serious weed control because I was lax last fall and skipped it. (coho...

Whatcha got?

So yesterday I had a little self induced mechanical issue with the motor on my boat. I worked on it a bit and discovered the problem but was hard pressed to fix it on the spot in a snow storm. I was downstream from my launch a mile or so and in a bit of a pickle. After an hour or so and a phone...

I need for someone to give me the name of the guy that decided we needed an extra day in winter every four years. I suspect it was an Aussie so they could get an extra day of summer. We need to lobby/bribe the head calendar guy and get this day moved to June.

Something I discovered as I was coming back from Canada last spring. I had taken a bunch of US bought bananas up with me but was returning a few days early because our dog died. The US guys asked about the food I might have and I mentioned the bananas. If you look at bunches of bananas at the...

Spotted just above Rockport.

Just back from two weeks in Montana. Are we catching coho yet?

There used to be a thread on another forum that I always got a kick out of reading. It had to do with weird things that happened in the woods or things that were found in the outdoors. I don't have anything to kick it off but I'm sure somebody does.

Hardy Jet, Sintrix 11' 6/7 Switch This rod appears to be slightly used. I have one of these in a 4/5 and love it. Comes with original sock and tube. I see no warranty card and am unsure how Hardy deals with this. $200 + shipping

Just got word that my niece's sister-in-law died from heatstroke at age 31 while in Las Vegas. Very tragic! These folks were just in town for a week during the week of the 12th. Be careful out there!

TFO Deer Creek 11' 4pc 7wt Switch This rod looks to have been barely used. Comes with original sock and case. $150 + shipping

Redington Red Fly 14' 3 piece 9wt Spey Very good condition with the exception of the scratches shown. Performance will not be affected by these. Comes with sock and case. $125 + shipping

Caddis Belly Boat - $50 This looks like it has never been used. It comes with: Fins Two anchors and some rope Pack straps Stripping apron Rod holder Not looking to ship any of these items and would prefer you pick them up in the Mount Vernon/Clear Lake area.

The title kind of says it all. A friend lost the tip section of a 3wt switch and we think a tip section for a 10' five would work.
