    In defense of the fly fishing club

    It’s nice to feel young two weeks out from my 38th bday, thanks guys. I’m certain that Covid followed immediately by having two kids less than two years apart has stunted my social abilities. I’m just terribly outta practice. But at the same time I find myself wishing fishing was more of a...

    PNW Flood Watch - Dec 8-12, 2025

    Anyone know how far back the recordkeeping goes for the Skagit and Snohomish gauge level records that are in danger of being broken? Trying to get a sense of where this potential flooding really stacks up historically against some of the anecdotes being shared here. Clicking the Snohomish river...

    Is that weird looking office building almost completely underwater??

    NFR AI - How It Will Affect Jobs In The Next 5 years

    Growing up on a dairy farm, AI meant artificial insemination, i.e. men going shoulder deep in cow cloaca. And now, decades later, I’m getting AI rammed up my own ass. It just goes to show, well…I’m not sure what it goes to show.

    Update - Dragonfly is on hold until mid-December when Inquirer #1 will have a chance to swing through Tacoma. Will update on whether a sale occurs. The other two boats are still very much looking for dates to prom. @dbaken the Dragonfly is plenty stable for the person in the front seat to fish...

    Thanks guys, that is the cold hard calibration I needed.

    Calibrate me here, you guys. How hard is it to catch a squid? Can a no name first timer get out there and slay them? Does it help if he’s super handsome? How long before trying a different pier? The race to 10 lbs begins. Place your bets on fanduel now!

    Puget Sound

    Great to know. I already bought a few, which I suppose is good insurance in case no one happens to be there selling, but I’ll bring some cash to sample the local wares. Planning to try Les Davis, but I might catch the incoming from 4am-6:30am to fish around high tide. Mostly because I expect...

    That’s the right length and concept, but will probably have to go aluminum due to limited towing capacity. And cheaper because these damn kids keep spending all my boat money on daycare!

    Puget Sound

    You’ve got my full attention, honestly! I’ve started going down the internet rabbit hole and will be bopping on down to Bass Pro to get some squid jigs tomorrow. I should probably hit a pier first to watch and learn, but on a calm morning I could see myself taking the packraft a couple hundred...

    Affordable places you would actually want to live

    Gotta keep those welts slathered in baking soda if you wanna make it through to the other side.

    Yeah, I grew up with chiggers. Two minutes of laying in the grass and you’ve got ten dime-sized welts on your balls and asscrack that itch like satan himself. I do not have words strong enough to express my chigger trauma.

    What's Catching You Fish?

    Affordable places you would actually want to live

    My wife and I are having similar discussions. Raising two toddlers in Pugetropolis is expensive! And we’d really like the kiddos to have more room to roam. A small town in an outdoorsy area with some cultural influx is the unicorn. Our unique wrinkle is that I have a sister in Sitka, and if...
