    Adding a scarf?

    The past couple of years, I have really taken to the scarf. It is such a functional piece as well as a great way to provide an accent to the wardrobe. And they are just not for old people. Did you know that a skinny scarf has been one of the most searched accessories in 2022? With that said...

    Competition breeds excellence

    By nature, I'm an extremely competitive person. Sure there is stoke in winning but like most competitive folks, I absolutely hate losing. I'm not sure if I was born with it or something I developed over time. I attribute most of my success in life to not being the smartest or most talented...

    Will you now post fishing content on Twitter?

    Now that the bird has been freed, will you get an account? Will you share fishing content? If so, share you handle and I'll follow. Funny how many still want to censor or cancel simply because some have different opinions. That tendency goes against everything this country stands for.

    Sick a$$ elk video

    Friend filmed this last weekend while he was out hunting. They passed on this bull as they were hunting one even larger. I would've shit my pants.

    The thumbs up is my new thing

    I've found myself giving a lot of thumbs ups lately. I think it works better than the two finger salute, a tip of the hat, a wave, or any other gesture. It is also appropriate for so many situations. For example, when you float past another boat on the river, nod the head and throw 'em a...

    Free weight distribution hitch

    I have an E2 for anyone with a camper in need. It works great although one of the brackets that connects to the camper frame is slightly bent. You could heat up with a torch and bend, replace it with a new one, or just leave it. It still works. Maybe just cover shipping which would probably...

    The Fall in SW Montana thread

    Friday got out with Salmo. It was perfect weather for fishing, low clouds, light winds, and scattered showers. Got our first baetis hatch of the season and streamer bite picked up late in the day. No hogs worthy of showing off but nice day out and Fall was definitely in the air. Today my...

    NFR #CelebJets

    Holy shit this is the best twitter account I've seen. It tracks the private flights of some in our celeb class and shows you how much pollution each flight emits. One thing that is eye opening, a single flight can use more fuel than I use in an entire year...even with my Tundra. Awesome.

    NFR Woodstock ‘99 - Netflix

    For some reason I have no memory of this. Probably because I was living in a shack in the woods in the Skagit Valley with no running water. But I’m 2 episodes in and it is so good. The Limp Bizkit segment is bad ass. The late 90’s has to be the era of ecstasy.

    "Official" fishing video thread

    How do we not have one of these yet? I enjoyed this series. I think we all have special places that bring back fond memories and these are two of my favorites. And yeah, the Smith kind of speaks for itself. I've been lucky to do this trip 11 times. There are few things better than...

    Hoppers

    It is August which in my hood means terrestrial season. Got out for the past few days to see if there was a bite.. This really is an amazing landscape and spectacular spot to chase a trout. The ranches are for the most part still in tact so there is not the development you see on other main...

    A hoody that will elevate your next adventure

    The Lightweight Hoody from Free Fly is nothing short of amazing. Made from a blend of certified organic bamboo and quick dry material, this buttery soft hoody redefines comfort. Colors are great, fit is perfect, and the hood doesn't feel like a grocery bag. Pair with the shorts I recommended...

    Knee Deep

    Not too many places I'd rather be than standing knee deep in a trout stream. Yesterday I took a friend out for her first time fly fishing. She caught 4 of the smallest trout ever taken on a fly and had a blast. Let's see yours.

    Destination Angler Podcast - Dave Kumlien, Madison River

    I have no affiliation with either Destination Angler or Montana Troutfitters. But I know Dave. He is one of the good dudes in the industry and has been a mentor. Him and his son taught me how to fish the salmon fly hatch on the Upper Madison. Salmo and WW can attest, this approach is a...

    NFR Official Summer Concerts thread!

    Is there anything more summer than July in SW Montana with Kenny Chesney playing Saturday night at Bobcat Stadium? Holy shit, I can't even believe I just typed that. Fun fact, this is only the second concert ever held at our stadium. An estimated 25,000 folks will be in attendance. This...
