    Are Permit really that tough to catch??

    I get to see them when we are vacation in the islands. Blue fin are what I chase with no success. On some of the other islands kayakers have success fishing bait, plugs and whipping large flys or jigs. Of course these guys are off shore a bit. And they are catching other fish as well. Jacks do...

    The 20/20 club-lenice old school

    also caught a big brown from that lake on very windy day in the 80’s in my round tube. Found a sheltered spot and one of my best days there many nice rainbows on mids and then a crusty old 6lb brown came along. Still have that round tube though I would hurt myself trying to get into now.

    Pass Lake Fly Lines

    Though I don’t fish pass much anymore, most of my time is using a #5 sink then either a type 2-3 and then an intermediate or floater. I have a cortland type 6 but it sinks too fast in many of the lakes I have time to get to. One tactic I should use more is to fish mids with my clear...

    Puget Sound

    Edmonds area is all about money. Has been for some time. Not the small town it used to be. We knew things were never going to be the same after developments like Emerald Hills went in.

    Puget Sound

    Not when I was a kid. That was a full time tug & oil barge operation. They wouldn’t even let us kid’s fish for pile perch on the property. Course we had multiple old docks to fish from anyways.

    Who is Wrong on This One?

    NS is a real pistol for coho off the beach. For some reason they don’t come very close to the beach much anymore, sea lions maybe ? I always end up chasing them in the lower river where they show themselves.

    Seals at the Barrier Dam

    Not surprising considering there were so many of them at the river mouth a week or so ago they blocked off the mouth from one side to the other. Sick !

    Snohomish/Skykomish get screwed

    And really how much longer do you think sportsman will have a salmon fishery in the skagit with the tribes running the salmon fishery in Puget sound ? Looks like WDFW is all to happy to just step aside and let the tribes run/decide how the salmon fisheries are run.

    Snohomish/Skykomish get screwed

    The Communist/Evil tree huggers are running rampant in this state and now have basically shut down salmon fishing on the Snohomish system. Along with the Stilly shut down every year now you know they are going after the Skagit next and then onto the Green river then Puyallup, etc. No good...

    Official Beach Line Thread

    Yes i use OBS on my trout spey, 8 wt on a 4 wt spey/switch. If i was to use the OBS most of the time I would size up the line to at least a 9 wt to get a better load on the rod. And my 8 wt OBS is a tropical version so it is slicker and a little stiffer up here compared to the tropics. I think...

    Running Lines

    I use Hydra float as a running line for commando heads or any 300-380 head. Easier to handle and it floats of course it won’t shoot like mono lines. Works as a backing too.
