Tremendous report. Way to squeeze the final drops out of your time off.

Zak, Was so taken with how clever and unconventional Deadlock was that I watched it twice- second time with my wife. You may want to YouTube the other work that the Kate's (McCartney and McLennan) have put out. The Katering Show is a hoot.

Just ONE tiny box of salmon flies?

FW&P have determined that scuds comprise 80% of the diet at a local lake. You better believe we fish scuds there. They do like leeches for desert.

I abhor body counts- bland accountancy was never my thing. Commercially available fishing journals have lots of slots for hard data; wind, moon phase, water temperature, fly patterns and, of course, number of fish landed. But unless you're fishing for memories you're missing the point. It has...

Hard bodied black ants are probably the most effective pattern you can fish in alpine lakes. Just sink one and as the cruisers swim by one will invariably grab. Brings back happy memories from my Colorado childhood.

Yes!! Many years ago I had dinner with a fellow who had the unfortunate task of trying to defend Jim Brown in lacrosse. He told me that as great as he was at football he was an even better lacrosse player. Scary.

1974 Montana stopped stocking rivers. Credit mainly to Dick Vincent's work-Stocking

Go Griz !

Amazing iridescence to those feathers.

Here's a Knouff Lake version that fishes really well. Fluorescent red or orange dyed GP tippet tail Peacock chenille Holographic rib- (on newest ones been securing holo with fine blue wire) Hackle the "bluest" pheasant you can find

Grew up fishing the South Platte below Cheeseman Dam. Small flies were always the ticket there and I've always loved that approach. The most extreme I ever took it was on the Fall River near Bend in 2002. Just for grins I'd mail-ordered some 12X Varivas tippet- which strictly according to the X...

The Dana Gallery here in Missoula recently put up this wonderful wall of Janet Sullivan's landscapes.

A few years ago I got to reminisce with my friend Dave Schultz. 25 years had slipped away since we last saw each other in West Yellowstone. I’d been to Yellowstone Park to work on the huge forest fires in 1988 but hadn’t returned and hadn’t kept in touch. Dave, commonly known as “Dutch”, is a...

You have the Right Approach. Guy I sometimes fish with once owned seven boats at the same time. 406 Kid might have that many in his armada right now. But who's counting?

phentex- a synthetic yarn made from olefin fiber. An olde time favorite. Really anything you tie black bodies with will work just fine. Got to admit that this video caused me to tie up a rendition.

This is simple and works well- Corned Beef 3 lb. flat cut corned beef roast ditch the spice packet 2 tsp. cooking oil 1/2 cup maple syrup 1/4 cup yellow mustard - Better is to use Boar’s Head Deli mustard 1/4 tsp. black pepper 1 garlic clove minced Brown in oil Add mustard/maple...

Outstanding, I'm envious. Have seen their prints in my cross-country ski tracks and "had that feeling" but never caught sight of one.

Way cool! A guy I know got to fish Machacas with fruit imitating dry flies, too. Here is a picture of what they used- all tied by a local man. They would be much easier to throw than BFCorks.
