    SFR A decision has been made-big move coming

    Oregon is the same. Tough to get into programs. My high school daughter is looking at nursing. She wants to go to Azizona….sun worshiper. Much easier to get into programs also. She will likely go community college route….at least for pre-recs. One of the main things we are coaching her on...

    SFR A decision has been made-big move coming

    Wow that’s a big move! Curious, did she try to get into programs closer to where you live, or did you guys want to move out there for an adventure?

    Wanting to move into mid range nymph rod

    I’ve mentioned elsewhere I ended up with an Echo Shadow X 11ft 3wt. based on Devin Olsens rec. After several sessions to get a feel, I couldn’t be happier. It’s a super sweet rod. I’ve mostly been fishing a mono rig straight up euro style, and then adding an Oros indo on the leader for when I...

    What is your favorite state/province/country to travel to for fishing?

    I’m a western US guy….i think each western state could make its argument for best. For me, the Eastern Sierra front, and greater Reno/Tahoe area, has everything a trout bum could ever dream of. Wyoming is awesome as well. I’ve done one fishing trip out that way, but was not disappointed…..the...

    Hopper / Dropper

    I need to remember trying the ant dropper. Terrestrials in general, often get overlooked, and often slay when utilized. Foam beetles have saved days for me in the past.

    IP 28 Oregon

    Being vegan, and trying to pass this kind of legislation….not remotely in the same ballpark. I would hope most vegans would not agree with what is being proposed. The vegans I know are choosing to eat like that more for perceived health benefits. Live your best life. Don’t try to shove it...

    What's in your vise?

    I just wanted to say I was on Lower D over Memorial weekend, and the fish were keyed in on caddis. I was running low on tan, sz 16, X Caddis, so I tied some up. That fly never disappoints. X Caddis is right up there with parachute Adams, and film critic for me, for dries

    It’s a reminder that there are some….and not an insignificant amount, of people in this world who think this way. Their lives are not lived in reality. They have live a pampered, sheltered life, where they have zero understanding of what it’s like to live a life where you “break a few eggs to...

    Mushroom and other wild edible foraging

    Grew up picking morels in EO in the Blue mtns. I miss em! Now, I pick a pile of chantys in the Oregon coast range each fall. I still think Morels are the best….especially on top of a deer steak.

    Taking Strangers Fishing, Yay or Nay?

    Yea, I’ve got one buddy who I’ve fished with since the 90’s. He, and I, are on the same wavelength, and know each other about as well as fishing buddies can. There’s been others, but they haven’t stuck for the long haul. I like the predictability. I like fishing with my family too, but I’ve...

    Taking Strangers Fishing, Yay or Nay?
