Well I guess this was finally enough to push me into finally getting a Euro rod setup, had a random Reddington Tilt I got at a half off sale and now this.

I always wear my PFD in a small boat anymore, also on the kayak in the sound unless its the middle of summer in the south sound I wear my semi dry suit for this reason.

I had a neighbor die of spongiform encephalitis when I was in high school in the 90s. The guy went from perfectly normal to screaming and threatening his wife to dead in the hospital in something like a week's time. The best guess the doctors had is that he had gotten it from eating beef in the...

Thought about this too, mostly I'm worried that I wouldn't have the hands free to manage the yak as it goes up and over the bed extender. One thing I will say is that I don't like the boondoxe TBone. A buddy of mine has one he uses with his PA12, I don't like the lack of arms on the side. I...

Yeah, to help with the loading/unloading I'm going to rig up some sort of removable winch system for my truck bed, its actually a little easier than one would expect with a hitch extension since it lets you get between the bed and the extension to act as a fulcrum to pull the boat over. Is the...

I have a Hobie PA 14 360. I'd say all my favorite things about it and my least favorite things come from the same thing. Its a big Kayak. Because its big its super stable. Picking up crab pots? No biggie. Kneeling to take a piss in the salt? Pretty stable there too. Whale watching boat zooms by...

It does sound like the pond is going away though: https://www.portland.gov/parks/westmoreland-park#toc-restoration-project-bringing-salmon-back-to-crystal-springs-creek They say duck pond but I think thats the casting pond as there aren't any other ponds in that park that I'm aware of.

For summer run your best option is probably the Clack, there was some decent water around Riverside Park and I think more around some of the parks upstream. The Sandy is also great to swing.

Hey folks, I've got a friend from Portland who wants to come up and visit some time in September. We both would like to hit the Skagit or the Sauk but neither of us have floated them so we'd probably be looking to hire out a guide. I've got one card from a fly shop but I figured I'd hit the...

I splurged on this jacket when I got my bonus last year and can confirm its awesome. It does sting more when you hook it (and the nice Orvis hoodie underneath) when casting though.
