For my money, it’s hard to beat this preparation of black cod. https://www.seriouseats.com/easy-broiled-miso-marinated-black-cod

Yeah they hurt like the dickens. We do need the binoculars to see what stinging, swarming insect it is so we can select the appropriate gear. Bald faced hornet nests are best poked with a 5 weight, aerial yellowjackets I like a 4 weight, but for the ground nesters you actually want a stiff 7 or...

For glory—what glory is left for 3rd place— the spirit of competition, and the fact that you just have something to prove—that we’re better than them. It feels better to win than to lose, for most people. At least I’d like to think that. But you’re probably right.

I bet a fly pole would work real good for that. Come on up, I can take you right to it. But maybe we can bring binoculars to try before the pokey stick.

Or a beautiful spot, depending on how you look at it... I was planning to go into the deep pool if I had to.

I don’t know if anyone noticed this from the first pic of that first pool I hiked down to, but I did notice it from across the stream. I had to go over there and go under it to continue on upstream. I didn’t linger to see if the insects I could see were yellowjackets or hornets.

I went back up there. I got a bad case of Nextbenditis. I was able to alleviate the symptoms momentarily but they say there’s no known permanent cure. Because it’s really just endless pools and pretty little trout. The little tan bodied parachute was a very solid producer, as was the larger...
