    What have you done for your boat lately?

    It's a 2002. Once deferred maintenance was complete it's very nice...quiet, pretty good power. Pushes my 16' Lowe about 25mph at 5500rpm

    What have you done for your boat lately?

    Nee starter relay on my Yamaha 40 4 stroke. The starter did a couple of runon events sdo I changed out the relay. I did a yamsha part instead of a far cheaper knockoff, just don’t trust the cheap electricsl parts.

    Carp have moved to deeper water?

    Last week on a day where water temp started at 60 at 9AM and ended at 68 at 3PM, all the carp I spooked at a nearby lake headed deep. And I didn't see very many.

    Maiden Voyage

    Intrinsic length, old guy stuff, layers, outside temp, what have you. The problem exists for all of us. Sponge, scuppers, pitcher, bailer, bat, just heading ashore, etc. A solution exists for all of us. There are many roads to the mountain, my son.

    Pro tip: get ya a whiffle ball bat and cut the ends off. Pee in the big end while dangling the little end over the side. No more leaning over the edge of the boat. Tie a line through a hole in the big end and you can rinse the bat easily. I call mine “the wizzer”. Saved me more than once. You’re...

    U.S. Forest Restructuring Plan

    Yeah, I have. And I’ve seen how fast special interests go to whomever they need to see that will stuff the process. If y’all prefer cheap and fast over good, enjoy what you get.

    U.S. Forest Restructuring Plan

    I'd feel a lot better about USFS (and other agency) restructuring if the plan was developed by the agency staff and the public they serve. It'd take more time, but be much more robust. It's not clear to me that this plan is anything other than some wonk somewhere with a map and a sharpie axing...

    The Final Fishing Trip

    Beautiful story, good on ya for getting him out. Last trips in my experience are only known in retrospect. It sorta changes the way I do trips.

    Stillwater indicator line

    Tossing an indicator with a chironomid or balanced leech on a reasonable length leader , say 12 feet, with my 4 weight is a PITA. Have any of you recommendations for a non-RIO stillwater indicator line? I've read Phil's stuff (and others), but I've had poor luck with RIO lines on several...

    Navigable River Designations in Oregon

    The Shingle Float test is one used in several states. I think it's at least part of Washington's definition. I don't know if it's in Oregon, though they have a definition too, solidified sometime shortly after statehood and about the same time as a surface water code was adopted. As I remember...

    Fishing with Dogs

    A lot has been written lately about fishing with dogs. Good fishing dogs, bad fishing dogs, PITA dogs interfering with your fishing, etc. I fish with my dog as much as possible. I find that to make a good fishing dog, you need to take your dog fishing. To make a dog fish well with others, you...
