    Queets open to Steelhead fishing until end of March 2025?

    The Queets is my favorite river. If you get a chance to fish it in the park do so (legally). It's amazing even if you don't hook a fish. My favorite Queets memory is fishing a run when a huge herd of Roosevelt Elk crossed the river about 100 yards upstream of me. A thunder of sound shortly...

    Bonefish line suggestions please

    I'd go with a clear tip line. Bones are spooky in most of the popular places. For those fish you're much better casting in front of them and letting them come to you. A clear tip line will help there.

    What would be a good bonefish setup?

    One that you can cast accurately with into wind with minimal false casting. I've been doing Bonefish trips for years and 80-90% of the time I'm using an 8 wt due to wind. With bones there's really not much of a difference fighting an average fish with an 8 or 6 wt. Here's a tip - use a fly...

    I obsessed over this solo for months. One of a handful. Such great playing. Dave Navarro remains an inspiring and underrated musician.

    There's a great video of Pete Thorn covering the into to this song with a Boss pedal. He nails the tone for any guitar players out there.

    What are you listening to?

    Mick Ronson's killer tone. The mix is so good; a flood of instruments. Raw. This is Bowie's best album.

    Indeed. We will always have that. But this post is about football, and we're just hanging on there.

    College Football 2024

    Bummer. Tough but expected given history. My moniker was JoePa on the old forum so you know my allegiance. I was a freshman when we won our last national championship. Good luck to Notre Dame.

    1.5 day tuna option

    Indeed it was. We caught a lot of tuna on that trip, but it got off to a slow start. On the first day we kept going west and eventually found the fish (and fleet) and had great fishing in the afternoon and into the evening. The next day started off with a bang. We quickly hooked a fish that...

    1.5 day tuna option

    I did an overnight albacore trip on a friends boat in Sept 2021 and it was a great experience. We ended up pretty much 82 miles straight out of Westport in the middle of the commercial fleet. There must have been 20+ boats within a few miles of us. As SilverFly noted the stars were...

    With the fires in LA and the Carter funeral I was in a somber mood all day. Some Robert Fripp quintet felt appropriate.
