    50 or 100ah Li Battery?

    I use a Watersnake #24, PWM, and a 36AH LiFePO4. Weight of everything is maybe 15 pounds. Use on 7.5 foot rotomolded pram. I do not need to go too fast, works great. The draw with 24# and PWM can fish for three days. Like to go slow backwards to cast indicators along weed banks.

    Dry Falls Fishing Dried Up?

    Deep lake is, well deep. Like over 90'. And it is long, way too long and narrow to paddle or row IMHO. Launch area to about far right initial point fish well at 10 to 30'. Usual suspects and good indicator spots. Many bait chuckers on shore. The left side is a high cliff, like DF, and it goes...

    Dry Falls Fishing Dried Up?

    Born 1949, started fishing Dry Falls in about 1962. Camped at the lake for opener, lowland lake date. Lake managed with fingerlings to reach 12" by opener, limit three. Oh but the carryovers.... We basically moved to Nunnally late 60's because the fish were bigger and it was easier to fish...

    Another Two Fly Question

    OK, get the guns out: slip indicator = plumbobber (now hard to find...!..), set placement with bobber stop; Seaguar floro to swivel; two tippets below swivel for two flies. Use Davy knots to swivel, Rapala knot to flies. Can even pre tie swivels for quick changes from blood worm to 'mid to...

    Snohomish Co. TGIF Flyfishing. Met Ronbow!

    Yup, so fun to meet up at the lake. And to meet a legend! We swapped lies, ah stories and information both current and of fond memories of Lenice, Nunnally, and Dry Falls from back when.... Dave, I tried to drive the fish your way, and it looked like it worked. And finally found a spot with...

    Tidy whitey anchor rope?

    I use 440 paracord in camo, with 8# downrigger ball and 4# downrigger ball. The cord is wound on a scuba diver reel. Reel can handle 75' for that naked, vertical, dangle thing currently being discussed in another thread. Scotty pully.

    SFR Cigars 101

    It is just part of the tradition. Left over habit from the late '60's..... And you just need to set the protocol: no cigar until you have it figured out: the chinook landed; arriving at your favorite pool right before dusk; getting the depth and color right on a mid hatch. Earn those puffs. Get...

    Slow Day Fly Progression

    Usually start with a type four and an olive Hale Bopp. LONG leader. Move around the lake looking at the depth finder to locale any hits. Keep an eye on the water beside me (shucks) and around for rises. Yesterday ended up in 13 FOW with rises all around, and emerging 'mids. Set up both anchors...

    Pay to play lakes??

    I'll be there May 20th. Conflicts only allowed for a later date. Maybe some dry fly action? One year clouds came through very late in day and callibaetis just exploded. As then did the fish. Looked like it was raining....

    Pay to play lakes??

    Unfortunately yes, and does not include lodging, food or guiding, though Darc will suggest flies and maybe point to a place on the lake. The lakes are really prolific food source. Chironomids, callibaetis, scud, leeches, and boatman are the staples. Sure there are damsels and dragons too. Fish...
