Got a new place to fish next spring. Some nice rainbows and browns and its open before most places will ice out. Good place for my Outcast Scout. However, its about 1/2 mile walk (two track road) that's closed to vehicle traffic. Anybody found a simple cart that works well with the Scout? TIA

Well to be polite as I can.....you are flat nuts. LOL His game translates terrifically to the NFL and its why he's going to be a first round pick and likely top 10. 1. He is strong as they come. He leads the nations in yards rushing AFTER contact. 2. He's fast and has insane balance. 3. He is...

Well I have no skin in the game but my question would be why do this at all? What funds are used to maintain this site and what will those funds be used for instead? Do you currently pay use fees for that launch? W/O knowing anything this would cause me to think the launch will be closed to...

I get a kick out of these kinds of threads. I will (fill in the blank) such and such a company. I will never own a rod from such and such a company. Or I will only use rods from such and such a company. Every rod/line combination performs differently for every caster. Its very much to each his...

Washington has 2 losses. Michigan is the only 2 loss team that is ranked. Washington has one win against a ranked team and both losses are to unranked teams. Michigan's other loss is to #1 Texas. Now if you want to argue that Michigan shouldn't be ranked I would tend to agree with that. But no...

The fish population is only 25% of target. Its just really poor right now but the flip side is that you can still catch a 6-8# fish on a given day.

The flight arrangements just work out a lot better to do this on the way home. You have good points though.

Thanks for the truly valuable insight.......

The conundrum of the travelling angler. Take to much stuff and its a PITA hauling it around. But sucks like heck to get someplace and say "damnit I should have brought .....". I err on the take as much as I can reasonably pack around to get to where I am going. Rather have it sit in the truck or...

Anybody ever done the one or two day add on for Golden Dorado out of Buenos Aires when going to Argentina? Thinking of adding on a day or two after our trip to Jurassic Lake. Certainly wouldn't expect the quantity or quality fish of a more remote jungle trip but it looks like it might be worth...

Thanks for the kind offer. I think I am in good shape with all the travel cases I have accumulated over the years.

Look I get all these points and they are fine. But: 1. A 20" or so firm trout is going to taste better than that old fish. 2. You can get the requested stomach samples from that 20" fish. 3. If you release it it might, might provide another angler the chance to catch such a great fish. When you...

Well after lots of going back and forth, and even thinking about a similar but not Jurassic Lake destination, pulled the trigger today. Booked ELV for November 8-15, 2025.

Great. Then why not kill one or two of those 18-20" fish and let that monster go so perhaps another angler could have the chance to catch it. Maybe it was near its end of like. Ok but still.

Overstocking may well be an issue. But killing one of a few trophy fish in a place doesn't help that one iota.

Great fish. But gotta ask. Why did you "retain" it? Try to release it and it just wasn't going to revive?

JLL is at the mouth of the Barrancoso River. Their "beats" are basically the Bay of Pigs, the beach, and then the right side and left side of the River. They also fish sections of the river and a bit of Moro Creek but most of that water is on the EVL ranch. So its not combat fishing like say a...

In order to be able to report on both I only need to go to EVL. Already been to JLL. Now that said if you guys would like to pony up the $8K to cover the second lodge I'd be happy to go down for 2 full weeks and go to each lodge. And I would be happy to then write a novel for this forum on my...

JLL is a bit of combat fishing. It doesn't have as much main lake area to fish as EVL. But JLL is at the mouth of the Barrancoso river so if you want to rack up huge numbers then that is where you fish and you go in our fall. EVL has more varied waters to fish and has a number of smaller lakes...

Whats not to understand? Looking for feedback from someone who has fished both lodges at Lago Strobel.
