Score! Looks like everything Simms are 50% off.

There are some free boondocking spots available too if you wanted to go that route. Idaho has much more lenient laws on targeting bull trout than say, Montana. Idaho regs specifically list them as catch and release. I have swung up a few on streamers through there, nothing huge but I know there...

Its possible that might be an older model Terrova without spot lock. I'd double check. I think they sell an upgrade kit though that can add it.

We went out on Friday evening instead of braving the Saturday weather but conditions were a bit sketchy already. Nice part was no wait at the launch, parking available, and not too busy on the water. I've never done the Chinook opener because I don't like crowds but my buddy convinced me to go...

With the forecast tomorrow looking sketch, we decided to run out after work this afternoon to do some mooching. We made it out to the most popular spot in MA10 and it was extremely sporty at high slack. Idled around a bit and found a good amount of bait on the screen, dropped down and got bit on...

Timely post. I lost a bunch of weight and my old Dryft waders fit again, but are overdue for replacement. Looking at waist high waders this time. I can't remember the last time I waded that deep and my Clearwater sits well above the water line. Has anyone tried/compared the Dryft Primo vs...

We've had a 2017 CX-5 since new, not long after I left working as a Mazda tech. Around 110k miles on it, only thing we've replaced is the tires beyond other basic maintenance. If I remember correctly we get about 24-25mpg combined. No CVT either which is a nice bonus. The newer CX-50 comes in a...

But it now so you're ready for next summer 👀

Fair price I think on this 17ft Triumph center console and maybe some more wiggle room, they just dropped their asking price a few days ago: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/976223021722377/

Make another trip over in late September....

No, Yes/sometimes, Yes, No. I fished a few years without spot lock. Totally doable. Position boat off shore and drift with the current, bump motor in and out of gear to hold the position you want. This is very current dependent though. @Nick Clayton had many laughs sitting on spot lock while I...

Apologies if it came off harsh. I'm spending every work day being absolutely spammed with copy/paste unvetted AI output and it's nauseating. It read like AI output to me off the bat. Hopefully it helps some folks out on the right track.

I understand this is just a giant AI compiled summary. But can we at least proof read it.

Fished on Sunday, needed to break in my new raft 😁. First lake I didn't do nearly as well as I did opening week last year there, the fish just didn't seem very active, but it was also quite cold in the AM. Packed up and moved a mile down the road and spent the rest of the afternoon playing with...

I'll take them if still available. DM sent
