Oh this is really cool. Just seeing it so don’t have time to sign up tonight, but I’ll get in there tomorrow.

@Burt Dagger passed away today in a tragic shooting head accident. Oh no! He got strangled by his fly line? No, no, nothing like that. He snuck onto private property to fish and the landowner shot him in the head.

She’ll smoke up nice

Both rezzies and cutts were super keyed in on penny to quarter sized chum fry when I fished Saturday. None of my patterns were very convincing, ended up with one netted and a couple missed over about 3 hours with them splashing all around me. The Sound always reserves the right to humble me.

Nice mixed bag of cutties and rezzies this morning in the deep south sound. Pleasantly surprised to catch anything with the dreaded sun + wind + weak tide combo. I didn’t see any chum fry, but the fish ate a fry pattern, so do with that what you will.

Welcome! Others will probably chime in with much better detail, but generally North Sound sea runs and South Sound sea runs have pretty divergent behavior, with the takeaway that there are better year round prospects in the South Sound (and Hood Canal). I think those North Sound fish start...

It sounds like he didn’t get the memo that you RUN this.

4wt for trout fishin’ western WA lakes and streams, 6 wt for Puget Sound. 8 wt for decorating my garage wall.

This is me gloating.

You’re too kind! Wish I could say I thought of it myself, but I’m just another internet copycat. It’s a pretty good scale system!

put them doggies back in the pound sir

Someone recommended the book The West without Water on another thread - after reading it based on that plug, I’d recommend it to anyone. We are not ready for what’s likely coming.

Fully deploying robotics within the industrial and agricultural sectors and fully deploying AI within the engineering, financial, and analytical sectors solves for the problem of needing human worker inputs to sustain the economy. Once that’s taken care of, we can proceed with controlled...

After careful study of the international used pontoon market, and considering today’s announcement that the federal reserve is holding interest rates steady, pontoon is now available for $275. (I am tired of tripping over it on the way to the boat I actually use.)

I’ll cut the youth a break - if I was facing today’s economic, environmental, and political headwinds as a high schooler or college kid, I’d be doing some hardcore despair drinking. Sure, there are other generational drugs of choice, but I think it’s commendable that on average alcohol is less...

I’m just starting to shift this way, somewhat to my surprise. I’m most of the way through my first dry January since my teen years, and i even started two days early! Part of it for me is having really young kids - the drag from having a few beers is really magnified when you’re awoken by...

It is pretty dumb that words come with the same penalty yardage as actual sticks and stones. This is less of a disagreement than an observation/question - was the flag on Woolen triggered by him crossing the out of bounds plane and being on LA’s sideline? Looked like the ref kept his powder...

I wonder if Woolen appreciates just how close he came to being one of the “those players” - that elite class of players who history remembers only for their biggest screw-ups. Games come down to more than one play, blah blah blah, but if the Seahawks had lost, the entire fan base was going to...

It’s a bummer Charbs got hurt and won’t get to play in a Super Bowl he helped his team get to. That said, I am a way bigger fan of K9’s running style and the dimension that adds to our offense. He’ll go into the game well-rested thanks to Charbs splitting reps until the NFC championship and is...

Not strange per se, but would love an educated ID attempt for this vertebra found on an MA 13 beach (banana for scale):
