Makes me wonder what the returns are like on the Wenatchee...

No one asked for it, but here it is anyway: The pnwflyfishing.com Tuna 2024 Thread Summary Podcast. Interesting to listen and see which subjects & contributions/contributors our AI overlords select for special emphasis. Tuna 2024 - The Podcast

When I learned that Google released an AI tool that would ingest any content on the web and transmute it into an astonishingly lifelike podcast dialogue about said content, it was immediately clear that the best and highest use of this technological wonder would be feeding it the 'Team...

Anyone remember the rationale for closing 9 at the end of September?

Music to my ears. It's been a mighty busy year with very little fishing, but things are looking up from now through the end of the year so that's great incentive to keep trying to sneak out when I've got a time-window right up until the closing bell.

"The Precious" - original rendition by "Cougar97" from the old board.

I don't tie anything fancy enough to need these feathers, but I noticed the following listing on FB marketplace. Can't vouch for the rarity/price - but they're certainly pretty. Seems like they'd be good for conjuring up a high-end rendition of "The Precious" and potentially winding up as a bit...

When do most folks throw in the towel when it comes to pursuing coho in the salt in MA10-13? All the way to the buzzer?

Easily the most helpful bit of intel I've come across regarding this technique, and very much appreciated. Definitely a technique that I need to incorporate when I'm out there puttering around looking for the usual indicators or puttering back to the ramp.

When I got my boat I was sure that working a clouser past the outside edge of kelp beds would be the ticket but alas...

I'm sure this has been covered elsewhere, but what speed to you like to bucktail at and how far back from the boat?

I appreciate your perspective and willingness to share it here, Jim. Always good to see/read/hear things from folks with direct personal experience that challenges your own outlook.

My youngest knows otters are my favorite animal, shares my love of rivers and (for now) fishing, is simultaneously very sensitive/affectionate whilst being a huge tomboy, and is somehow an even bigger fan of otters after learning that they are aggressive predators that will attack...

Generally feels like "Conservation projects are to tribal harvests as haycheries are to dams " On positive note - the fish-wheel demos on the Columbia and the Skeena have been successful - or at least that's the impression I get. Very small scale, but a step in the right direction for...

Oh man. Was close to pulling the trigger but took a look a the calendar and there are just way too many moving pieces. Dang.

Bit of thread drift, but reminds me of a time when I was working at an investment company and the higher-ups decided to aggregate statements by Social Security numbers instead of mailing addresses without doing much to inform clients about the impending change before it occurred. "Hi - I'm...

Gotcha. Thanks!

AFAIK this is a year of mostly good news - at least in terms of numbers - when it comes to steelhead, so it brings me no joy to pass along less-than-happy news on the conservation front when it comes to the Skeena River. Having said that, I don't think anyone is in a better position to comment...

Eventually. Or so I hear. For the past year or so my "default activity" has been dealing with the legal and logistical issues that came about when an increasingly eccentric uncle who'd self-estranged from the family about a decade ago died suddenly and left behind an estate that was about as...

Very interesting. Hearing "combat fishing" in the context of remote, $1K USD/day fishing in South America made me do a double take, so if you have a moment, can you expand on that? Are we talking other people close enough to communicate with by shouting but not close enough to have a negative...
