Leave a good pocket knife you've owned for 30 years there and it'll be gone by the time you make the next block.

He's probably the only person who knows what's really in it. Some of life's mysteries are best left unknown and this is likely one.

For me it started with my friend Bill. He began taking me fishing when I was about 10 years old, over 50 years ago. We are still good friends. His influence caused me to spend over 35 years in fisheries work and now in the fly fishing industry. All because of Bill...

On KCTS right now.

I've worn out my first Peterson Field Guide to Birds of Western North America. I like it as it directs you to identifying what you're looking at by pointing out key unique features. What I'm going to suggest might seem a bit radical and it's not what I recommend at all for any other book. What...

Our poor kids. We gave them so much shit for even thinking about any of the things we did. We kept them from enjoying life. How shameful.

After a few days fishing tarpon and bonefish with the renowned Nick Denbow in Mahahual, he had us over for dinner and plated each of us up a steak, a couple Gulf lobster tails, and a traditional English mash. I could learn to love this!

Two votes for the Mitchell 300. A Zebco Cardinal 4 is another good option. Eagle Claw were simple utilitarian rods but being older it needs a match of the same vintage. You'll get a lot of compliments with that old school kit.

Try to explain the damage to your truck to the insurance company without the video.

Those will be nice birds once a little older. Remember that nice chestnut brown pheasant rump we used to get. It's rare now because birds are slaughtered once they reach marketable size. That brown feather on a ringneck comes with age. The mellanistic crosses will produce darker feathers. It...

I was hoping the Blue Jays would go deeper but not upset at the Mariners because the Jays lost moreso than they were beaten. Cannot in any way cheer for the Astros. Some could say the years they stole signs are over and many of that team are elsewhere or out of the show entirely. And even...

Q: What are you fishing for? A: Because my wife hates me.

I sense the Mariner's bandwagon is getting better gas mileage lately....

There's lots more about parbuckling on the internet than can be explained in a one minute video. I posted the video to draw attention to the technique. Like anything else, folks can discount it or learn more about it by research. I have used it and it works.

I took the RHIOT course with the Canadian Coast Guard in Bamfield about 20 years ago when I did patrol work on the west coast of Vancouver Island. We learned the technique in the attached video. It's known as parbuckling and it's pretty effective. Although the boats we used were 23 foot rigid...

When I saw the guy fall into Peterhope I was on the phone with the paramedics and they asked me to help get him into dry clothes and monitor him for shock. After answering a few questions like his name, date of birth and such to see how coherent he was I mentioned he should have had a life...

I've seen 3 incidents of people falling out of a boat. One when I worked up north on the Taku River. One in Simon Lake when both husband and wife ended up in the water. And again on Peterhope Lake about 3 years ago. Each one was out of a flat bottom Jonboat like a Lowe or Crestliner. People...

A perfect match for the Foaming Upright Budweiser. They begin to come out sometimes around noon but more often later and can sometime persist until late in the evening. They often leave a ring on the surface after they lift off.

I hope others following this example. Selfless giving makes the world a better place. Greed only makes it worse. To give and not know that you give at all is a trait to be admired.
