"... But Good!" became a inside joke punchline in my family. We had a lot of them, and they were one way we all felt connected to each other. Sometimes nobody could remember the actual joke, but the punchline, delivered in the right context, was enough. At times they come almost as a reflex, and...

Be kind to others. Take care of the fish and the river.

I want to go to there!

Used only once; the action was a bit too soft for my taste. These sell for $150 new. I'll take $100. Pick up in Hood River or pay postage.

I have an Echo Carbon XL 7'-6" 3-WT that I'm looking to sell. I used it only once, since it was too soft for my taste. It goes for around $200 new and I'd sell it for $125, if you're interested.

A buddy and I are planning a week or so of fishing in Montana. We may fish some of the biggies (Clark Fork, Blackfoot, Big Hole, etc.) but are more interested in smaller, more initiate streams. We'll probably take my raft, but wading options are just as welcome. Not asking for hotspotting, but...

Nice to hear from you! The line isn't at fault. I started bank fishing at a local lake as an alternative to floating when the wind is up, and the shore is covered with very sharp pieces of broken shale. It has been very difficult to keep stripped line from getting caught in it. Despite my...

I bought a new fly line last week, and today, after just one previous outing I noticed some tears in the casing. Can these be repaired? I had a thought to try some UV cure resin in very thin layers. Any advice that doesn't include spending another c-note would be appreciated!

My mother's favorite T-shirt read: I am silently correcting your grammar.

I have a Fishpond dry (sling) pack and the net sleeve works quite well. I've never had it come free and its relatively simple to unsleeve when its needed. The only disadvantage is the height of the net above my head when I'm crawling or threading my way through brush. I can't say the same for...

Whitefish have very small mouths. Increase the size of your nymph and you disqualify them based on that alone. My typical Deschutes dropper setup is something small under a Pat's stone (mostly for its weight). I've encountered Senor Blanco many times, but never on the Pat's.

I have a great raft and don't really see the advantage of a hard 'liner' - especially if it defeats the ability to be self-bailing. The floor of my raft is rigid enough that standing is easy, comfortable and safe. Other than offering more room (which is more a function of boat length) I don't...

IDK. From what I've been able to learn, the warm water breeds lots of weed except right below the dam. Waiting until the beginning of October might be a better bet.

I'm thinking about floating the Missouri (near Craig MT) in early September and looking for info about what I might expect. Any advice?

Check out Korkers.

What other funny portable toilet slogans have y'all seen? One that comes to mind is "Number one in the number two business"

I remember Muldoon. Ooh; Ooh.

This thread is very much appreciated! I fish a lake in N. Central OR that has a robust callibaetis hatch in the afternoon and evening, preceded by lots of sipping when the adults aren't visible. I've always taken that to mean that emergers are being taken just under the surface. Knowing about...

Did you say 'yout'?

I was able to buy a new TFO Pro 3-Wt at a steep discount, so I'm actually all set!
