Day 2 was more marlin and roosters. It was another good weather day. This is the only picture I took while fishing as I had my GoPro on my head most of the morning. I got a great video of me hooking a marlin (I could clearly see the eat) and having it break off as it jumped after a crazy...

Mag Bay has been on my radar since my first trip to Baja in 2020. When a friend reached out last fall to see if I wanted to join him, it was an easy yes. The plan was 2 days of striped marlin fishing and 2 days inshore for roosters and other fun species. I woke up last Sunday to a really cool...

I have owned 12wt, Buff and Blackstrap gloves. I like the Blackstrap gloves the best, but they are pretty much done. The Buff gloves did OK before the finger seems started to separate. The 12wt gloves not so much. I bought the Blackstraps out of a clearance bin. Seems they don't make them...

This is an interesting idea to me. Any specific town?

I have fairly large hands - the flies are around 7 inches long

Finished off my supply of 10/0 hooks this morning. Had one of my earlier efforts that I didn't like much so I cut off everything but the bucktail and flash. Added a few wings of SF blend and a big piece of foam. 🤞

wow

mine are 34 as well - guess they simplify production with a one size fits all offer

How long was the tube for the 907? I got tubes in the mail for my 9' rods a few weeks ago. They are long enough for a 10 foot rod. I sent an email asking about this and crickets...

When @Wade Rivers takes you out in his boat and puts you on the biggest bull of your life, you get rid of the background :). On this Not this rubbery thing that Mr. Rivers pulled out of the throat of one of his fish (that may have eaten a fly too big to mention)

Not sure when they put up the gates heading up to the crater. The latest I have ever been is November 14th.

Almost done with my Mag Bay box. This one is for roosters and other inshore stuff. I have found that some of the nayat patches have really stiff guard hairs - the white patch I am using here for example. I started pulling them out of the tail to get a softer tail. I then cut them in half and...

Yes, they are sticklebacks - very small ones

When the sun dropped below the mountains I loaded up and headed to another popular lake. Was the first one to the landing yesterday morning. Took me a while to get the canoe in the water as the sky required my attention. Love being on the lakes at sunrise. When I got to my spot fish...

With the weather coming I decided to take advantage of the last few days of decent weather. Headed out after work on Tuesday and got in a few hours before it was too dark to fish. I am always hopeful that the brown trout will be in the mood to eat a big streamer this time of year. Didn't take...

I was editing pics from the last couple days and realized I have not seen a thread dedicated to fish pictures. We all have tons of pics of fish sitting in the bottom of the net - please don't include these: Not a huge fan of hero shots, but they are a huge part of our culture. If you have...

This guy was hanging around waiting for us to hook something - that is my canoe outrigger in the upper left corner of the image
