    Thrift Shop Find. PNW Fly Fishing

    I moved this past summer and found this trio of books I found about 8 years ago at the thrift store. I think it came from professional fly there, Arlington, WA resident, Joe Butorac. I shared this on the other PNW website years ago, but it’s cool enough to share again. Les Johnson signed...

    Port Ludlow Pram build underway!

    Being apart of this pram build is like early Christmas for me. @Jameson Hawn is fearless in the wood shop and generous with inviting a nobody like me along for this build. I’m using his tools, his shop & his brain. Haha All I have to offer is ideas… some good & some no so much! 😆 His boat...

    NFR Truck tires?

    I have these on my truck Tim, and I just replaced them with the exact same tires. They are great tires, and relatively quiet compared to BFGoodrich AT.

    Not mine -- would be a great place to call home!

    Sweet! We were looking for property and cabins in this area, but that kinda ended when we moved to the Peninsula. It’s a beautiful part of the state and this area is bound to increase in value, if it you can continue to secure fire insurance.

    Kayak Outriggers for canoe

    With the canoe, I’m not sure how the outrigger is secured to the gunnel. I expect there is away, but it would have to be a solid connection if you are relying on the outrigger. EasyRider boats are very well made and I think I’ve seen sail rigs and dagger boards attached to these canoes. I...

    What have you done for your boat lately?

    Once you decide to sell, it’s my opinion that it’s best to get the boat to a new home at a fair price.

    Great day fishing gone wrong

    Yikes! It’s stories like this from experienced drift boaters that gives me serious pause about rushing out to drift the Yakima in my 12’ Koffler pram…. Thank you for sharing and the safety reminders for us all. Very glad you’re safe!

    Roger Stephens, RIP

    Very sad to read this news. Roger’s personality showed through with his steady, caring and informative posts to these PNW Fly Fishing forums. I’ll miss him. I thought my sporadic participation of late was the reason I had not seen his posts. My condolences to his loved ones.

    Tim, A buddy & I muscled it into a lake yesterday. Next time I’ll use the 8’ pram to save my back! Great to get out and explore these new-to-me Olympic Peninsula lakes!

    Small Lake Boats

    Happy birthday @Old406Kid ! Hope you get another boat! I am building a Port Ludlow pram this winter, and then I purchased a 12’ Koffler pram last night. Keeping the Flyfisher just gets to the point where it’s too much for my current house arrangements haha. if I like the wood pram, I...

    Small Lake Boats

    I brought home a used boat I purchased last night and I’ve decided to sell my coveted Harbercraft Flyfisher. These lightweight, stable Jon boats are coveted by many discerning Stillwater anglers. I have a bow and stern anchors, seats set on aluminum saddles that fit over the bench seats. It...

    aluminum boat options

    Alumaweld tiller operated boat would be great. They make one called Columbian I think. A flat bottom and then the SuperVee. I’m Not sure which is best for your application. to my eye, they start to look like huge behemoth boats that require a lot of horsepower. I’m sure I’d get use to...
