    A small observation about fishing

    Ah, yes. Very good insight. I might add though that we often forget about the experience because we are so intent in tricking the fish that sometimes and does make us look foolish. I always say " preparation meets opportunity", but everything else and just some good old luck play into the...

    NFR Rivian R1T Driven Yesterday

    Sounds like a great truck….interesting read. If you pull 11,000lbs, the truck will be way over gross weight vehicle rating. This is what the truck manufacturers advertise to get you in the door and consumers fall for it. It may be rated as a 3/4 ton, but that doesn’t mean it is safe to do so...

    My saltwater back up

    System 2 8/9. I take this reel with me on every saltwater trip now as a back up. It is heavy and clunky, but is bullet proof like the System 1 456 I first had for trout fishing. That thing was in the mud etc and never had a problem with it. I think I will keep it..! Do you all remember these...

    What's your fishing rig?

    2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD Diesel LTZ. Almost 69,000 on it now. Had a 2011 Dodge Ram 1500, but was sucking too much gas pulling our 26 foot travel trailer. If I keep my foot out of it, I can get almost 24 on the Highway without the trailer and 16th or so towing. Only problem is that it is...

    Advice needed for Lewis and Yellowstone Lakes

    I talked to Big Sky Anglers about a week ago and they said the lake had been drawn down already and they may leave it now for the remainder of the season. Maybe the fish just need to adjust a little when that happens..??

    Advice needed for Lewis and Yellowstone Lakes

    NO bugs...?? No famous Gulpers coming up..? I have always been in early September and have fished on Madison Arm most of the time with sinking lines of various sink rates. 2 years ago the I had to wheel my boat about 25 yards out to the lake, but still managed to hook and land quite a few nice...

    Advice needed for Lewis and Yellowstone Lakes

    All, We are headed to Lake Hebgen for a week just after Labor Day( 3rd time in 4 years). We stay in Madison Arm and explore from there. I keep my pontoon at the waters edge so I can fish for a few hours and so you may ask.....why would you go anywhere else with Lake Hebgen at your front door...

    Big Hexagania

    All, I was out on Pend Oreille Lake a few days ago and this came and landed our seat. I have always seen them in magazines and heard about the famous Merrill Lake hatch, but never have seen one in person. I kept it on the boat until we got in and then put him in the bushes nearby…..pretty amazing.

    Fly Fishing Show Returns to Seattle

    Well, I remember a vendor( cannot remember who) stating to me that they had bowed out of the last show that took place in Bellevue because back then the stalls were like $ 2500. I can only imagine what they want now.......I can't imagine that is is cheaper than Lynnwood.

    Fly Fishing Show Returns to Seattle

    After making multiple requests to Ben, they have decided to bring back the show....this time to Meydenbauer. He requested from me to help spread the word so that the show will be successful and they will return the next year. Personally, it seemed better in the Lynnwood Convention Center, but...
