catching picked up today. The smaller, 16” fish pull hard and this 22” fish was just what I was hoping to find. The trout were taking a brown and copper bead chironomid.

Very slow fishing today on DF, but I managed a couple. One big fish, that made one big jump. This net is Moby Whale, for scale. The evening was calm, fish rising but I could not get my fly into their path. No pattern or consistency to their feeding. Maybe tomorrow

I picked up an do 510-4 on WFF for $400, and have no regrets. Never use my do 490-4 and think about listing it for sale, but never get around to it… Best of luck on your search. Finding a local to you seller is great, as the seller saves on a boat load of eBay and PayPal fees!

Yes, I agree. I logged-in to share the same advisement 😀 Well cared for and nicely appointed.

Did she sell it for what he said he paid for it?

That sounds like a great trip Roper! Thanks for posting

In addition to chironomids and leeches, the mayflies will become an important food source in late May. I’ve had luck with pheasant tail nymph patterns modified to fish under an indicator. (Bead at thorax)

Wish I was able to join you Gary. Enjoy the day and don’t forget sunscreen! Woohoo

The real dark side… 😂

I don’t tie them too often but thought I should for a cold weekend fishing trip tomorrow. I’ve been using my own version (on the right) for years during winter months on Lone Lake. I like rabbit fur tails. That chartreuse works well this time of year, slow retrieved on a full sink line.

interesting Dave…. So what line weight should I order for my 5wt rod? 😂. A 7wt Amazon.com line?!?

Hi @keeganc . Did I offer you to try my 8’ Classic pram(maybe it was on WFF.com). Anyhow, if you’re interested in the Classic, I am a short drive to Blackmans Lake in Snohomish. You’re welcome to try it out. My boat has the pedestal seat manufactured 2” back, offering a bit extra leg room.

What a disappointment to hear. I’ve been towed once, and I’ve spent hours helping a couple guys out of a bad situation and tow them to a protected bay…. I wasn’t in the mood and they were so stoned they didn’t even know they were at Whidbey Island rather than Jefferson Head 😂. You just...

Plate River Spider. Finding the right materials was a battle. I’d not tied this fly in a long time, but it’s fun to tie and catches fish in lakes, rivers and the saltwater. Searun cutthroat love to take this pattern. I think Blue, from the old forum, tied this fly for a swap. It became a...

Looks great Kfish. Nice find. That wheel would save me a lot of frustration! Can you post a link please?

Steve, that lake looks like it could get real cold for the fisherman!

I’m real late to this thread, so I’ll go back through to see what everyone is listening to! My wife and I saw these guys over the weekend. Great song writing and a mix of music types…. They played at The Tractor, so they are a bit western… They get everyone dancing

That is great. I’ve not much experience with induction top stove. They seem to heat up really fast! The first caution that comes to mind is a big #12 skillet could damage the glass top, if it got away from you!

Omelets for dinner last night.

What a great thread, lots of great reminders for all of us, at all ages. At 53, I work to keep the low back pain away. I’ve always fished out of a small pram, and just recently picked up an 8’ Spring Creek pram and installed a Tempress seat on the pedestal. @M_D , you’re welcome to pick...
