Gary Thats a serious WOW on the bread! What do you do to get the great lip?

I have a few days Id like to fish the Williamson the end of July. I am a DIY angler but am looking for recommendations for lodging (nothin fancy is fine) and a guide for a couple of days. Are there better options? Might Yamsi be worth it if available? Thanks for any reply.

I would suggest a mild abrasive WITHOUT a beaching agent, such as "Comet" no bueno. Maybe a diluted mix of baking soda and water. I used to raft a fair amount and maintenance was paramount. I would resort to Powdering my raft before putting away at the end of the season.

Yes especially if they know of some unfished, trophy sized trout rivers.

Thank You Thank You!!

Hello, Does anyone use a site for seeing the water temps on the Columbia river? Id love to know when the water reaches 50ish degrees. Thanks for your reply.

Thanks I'll have to look into rental accommodations I prefer "ala cart" trips.

Thanks for sharing the photos. I like the simple stuff as you show. Love running into Jacks. Lots of fun.

Sounds perfect, except the broken rod. Do you recall who was the guide or service you used?

Thanks for the reply. What lines did you favor? intermediates as well? Are you referring to "gurgler" type flies. Got a photo to share?

I'll look into that Thanks!

Hello, Looking to put together a trip to the northern Yucatan for juvenile Tarpon. Any good or bad time, etc. any info is good info. PMs OK. Thanks for your reply.

Nice that a member provided you with a line. thats what some good forums can do. I agree with Buzzy about only one line most flats fishers know the value of a backup line I would still recommend an inexpensive backup like Maxcatch or similar. If you are close to Governors Harbor gool luck with...

Youtube is you friend What Island will you visit?

Get a "salt water" line from "Maxcatch" on the big auction site Will cost Less than $20.00. I use them as back up lines for my bonefish outfits actually a decent line. If you only fish one time it wont matter if you cant use it later but if you have not been bone fishing Im pretty sure it wont...

Stunning shots...Thank you!

Now thats funny.....sicko

Just to be clear I dont dispute "experience" for me its about the math. If I put some folks in my boat to guide my costs are the same concerning liability etc. whether "full" or "half day' What changes in my mind is the hourly rate I pay for the guides time. Just for kicks imagine as a guide...

My comment about "full" vs "half day" is simple. I took my grand kids on a "half day'" trip on the Umpqua for Smallmouth one day with a guide I had used for a "full day" trip. I really expected to pay HALF of the "fullday " rate. NOPE the fee was not half but half plus $100 . I understand...
