    Two early 2025 events to consider:

    I'm going for the trifecta this year. I love the Albany show and this coming year I want to also attend the Eastern Idaho and Wasatch shows.

    Umpqua Fly Tying and Casting Festival

    Darn, just saw this. That's during my muzzleloader season and I need a deer in the freezer. I'd love to attend but I'll be in Eastern, WA.

    How do you transport your fly rods?

    I love my Riversmith 4 banger and it really worked well with my 2 buddies and I on my recent Idaho/Wyoming trip. I purchased the foam protectors and put 2 on per rod before I load them into the River Quiver.

    My buddy and I hit a local reservoir and I ended up catching a bunch of brookies. I caught them by sight casting since they seemed to be on about a thirty minute cycle where they would feed at the surface then go away. I had more luck with a Royal Wulff and a Purple Haze and some luck using a...

    3 weeks of Idaho and Wyoming adventures 2024

    So after the week in Idaho I moved on to Wyoming and met up with my family for a week and didn't really do any fishing until they left. We drove through Yellowstone on the 4th of July and I wanted so badly to fish but I was being a good tour guide for this part of the trip. I then met up with...

    3 weeks of Idaho and Wyoming adventures 2024

    The Clearwater is a major steelhead river and the others are tributaries of the Clearwater so I have to believe they are making their way up these other tributaries. I did see a dude catch a monster king salmon on the Lochsa. I also hooked up on a monster on the Selway while swinging a big...

    3 weeks of Idaho and Wyoming adventures 2024

    Yeah we hit the Selway one day, thankfully I brought an axe. I should have had my chain saw with me. We were about 17 miles back and a good storm hit. Trees and boulders came tumbling down the mountain and blocked the road in places. It was humorous watching the three of us taking turns with...

    3 weeks of Idaho and Wyoming adventures 2024

    I came back last week after 3 weeks of fishing in Idaho and Wyoming the last week of June and first couple weeks of July. Full disclaimer there are officially no fish in Wyoming, they all migrated to the Madison. :) . We based ourselves out of Orofino, Idaho the first week. We adventured out...

    Wood working equipment

    Oh damn, I sold off my table saw, jointer, and planer a while back and regret it. I need to get my new shop built so I can fill it :) I would be interested in the Kreg router table and Dewalt planer however if you cold send pics and prices.

    2024 Bison Score

    I was in Yellowstone a week ago. Was passing through the Norris area when a huge group of cars were pulled over and people jumping out of their cars. I passed by and could see a huge griz in the tree line. I warned a group that were walking up to the tree line to stay the hell back and that...
