    Backpacking...

    Aint no country like the high country. +1 for the Garmin InReach. If the fish are rising and you’re going to extend your stay ping your wife so she doesn’t think you’ve been mauled by a bear and call the sheriff when you’re late. Hiking/backpacking always go hand in hand with fishing. Why...

    WA High Country - Lucky Lake

    This one was on the calendar months in advance. We waited, we tied, we researched, we tied some more, we fretted over the weather, but finally the day came and we hit the trail! The climb was rough at times. The trail passes through old burns and shade is hard to come by. Skeeters here are...

    Recommendation for Backpacking the Sierras?

    Here’s a good resource to nerd out on, might narrow your search. Good luck, but be wary, gold fever is not to be trifled with 😉 https://flyfishingthesierra.com/eastsierra5.htm

    Sage brush & ‘bows. Central WA tubefest

    @Squatchin landed the only brown of the trip. I believe that’s back to back years for him? He has the touch it seems.

    Sage brush & ‘bows. Central WA tubefest

    It has become a yearly tradition and it rarely disappoints. We had a little of everything this year - snakes, rain, sun, moon and stars, wildflowers, and lots of wily tenacious ’bows. We took the low road in opting for more strolling and slow rolling than scrambling down the high road. Once a...

    What's Catching You Fish?

    Craft fur minnow strikes again. It was pretty much “last cast” before calling it a day when I got a serious yank. Eventually this gnarly cutt yielded to the net. It looked like it had survived a recent eagle strike.

    Warm spring weather is coming! What are your fishing plans?

    Skunked on our secondary weekend objective (surf perch). Success on the primary objective - gratuitous rest and relaxation. What a nice break in the weather.

    Warm spring weather is coming! What are your fishing plans?

    Word on the street is there’s some kind of razor clam festival out on the coast. Surely there’s some fishing to be had nearby. Bonus points for driving on the beach and letting the dog go nuts for a while.

    Taking down animals

    I got attacked by a large domesticated turkey once. Damn thing waited until my back was turned and got airborne, its wicked spurs ready to strike. Luckily someone saw the devilish back door attack and shouted a warning. I executed a perfect forward roll to dodge the attempted assassination and...

    NFR NFL 2023 Season

    Ravens D looked ready for action. Great job keeping them out of the end zone (on offense at least). Poor CJ Stroud’s mom, she looked like a worried wreck. Hopefully she got some crab cakes out of it.

    How much longer will we talk about Purdy as MVP? Quoth the Ravens “Nevermore.”

    NFR NFL 2023 Season

    Joe has earned a spot in the hearts of Baltimore fans no doubt, but if he gets in our way… ☠️

    December bass? Can it be done?

    Rootbeer EP sparkle brush over white marabou and some Krystal flash. An easy tie. Glad to see at least my flies are catching some bass 😬 Oh and several wire wraps for weight

    What's Catching You Fish?

    I’ve been grooving on using brushes for streamer flies lately. Sparkle brushes, foxy brushes, craft fur, minnow head, yata. Yeah, next I need to learn to make my own brushes. One thing at a time. Mid-country hike-in lakes are getting frosty around the edges, but the fish are still biting 🤘🏻
