Good M's game last night. Castillo could find his spot in the rotation moved up if he keeps dealing like that.

I buy Eddie Bauer pants from their outlet in Salem. I think they're called Rainiers. I can't find them anywhere online. They're still not cheap by any stretch but they're are lightweight, dry fast and last forever. I think I finally wore a pair out after 8 years.

Thanks @fatbillybob and @O' Clarkii Lewisi I did a bit of both, extended the length of my leader and slowed down my turn to put more line on the water, really made a big difference.

He's puttin' on a show.

My wife does my haircuts, then buys about $100 worth of stuff online. I might be interested in about 30% of what she buys so do the math.. That said me and most of my hair parted ways decades ago. It takes here longer to trim the nose hairs, eyebrows, ear hair and gorilla hair that creeps above...

The blowout scores were awesome. The best part of the series was watching Julio get his groove back. His swing looks awesome and he's having great at bats. I hope he picks up where he left off when the break is over. Also, boooooo to Detroit for walking Raleigh when he had a chance to tie Bonds...

So I've had enough reps with this line and rod to say it's a definite keeper. It actually casts a bit better for me with the int. or s3 than the floater. That's kind of common for me with any multi-to\ip line. I suspect those thinner diameter tips fly a little better than the floater. It's not...

Yankees hit everything in the 8th and 9th innings, 3 different top-tier M's pitchers got clobbered. Apparently Munoz was tipping his slider but he was clearly having location problems too.

I'd like to see Eugenio back too, but suspect it won't happen. Williamson is darn near flawless at the hot corner, but his hitting has been pretty bad. He got a clutch hit in this series, maybe that's the start of something.

Think how all the Bob Smith's in the world must feel.

Cool thread but also this^^^ Reading water is a crucial skill, but it's not the same as 'reading fish'. Someone on this forum had the tag "If it looks fishy fish the <4 letter word for copulation> out of it"

Looking for a good deal on a line in excellent working condition. I prefer to use PayPal and live in Oregon. thanks

I wouldn't underestimate how nice 'waterproofness' is, particularly for a waist pack that's likely to get submerged. But I understand it adds to the price and potential failure points (the zippers in particular). My non waterproof bags are relegated to boat use only. Got tired of driving home...

we have a 2009 Forrester with the boxer engine. We bought it about 7 years ago for something like 10k with 100k miles on it. It has 160k now and runs like a sewing machine. Idling in gear at a stop light you'd think that the engine had turned off like our hybrid Camry does. Only problem is that...

one benefit, I'm learning how to grip a fly rod handle with just enough pressure, not enough to crack a walnut. It's amazing how little pressure it takes.

as in https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/trigger-finger/symptoms-causes/syc-20365100 Lots of soreness in the right hand, and the ring finger locks pretty bad if I don't splint at night.. Been dealing with it for a couple weeks. Started taking nsaids and doing some tendon gliding...

Here's the home page I was taken to from a Facebook link... gotta say I was almost willing to suspend dis-belief when I was the prices.

probably because I suck at dead-drifting a fly :)

Fishing was really good for those warm days we had last week. We don't get epic hatches on the N. Umpqua, but the stones and salmon flies do get the fish wound up and throwing caution to the wind. I think they're mostly gorging on the bugs that are migrating to shore cuz there's not a lot of...

Thought I had a small steelhead on at the take. Exploded on a Brett's Klamath.. So much fun right now with salmon flies marching to the shore all the trouts are throwing caution to the wind.
