    What Are You Eating?

    Fresh cut French fries! I recently tried some frozen fries in the air fryer but thought they lacked the real essence of a potato. So I cut up some russets, added a little cornstarch and salt, a tiny bit of olive oil and topped them with some finely grated parmesan. Just wonderful but a helluva...

    Baked Beans

    I am in the heat and eat camp when it comes to beans, just open the can and start eating-just what you need for camping. Baked beans in a can have been around for 130 years now and have stood the test of time, they have over a hundred years of experience at being one of the original fast foods...

    2025 NBA

    Same here, for the WNBA she is the Goose That Laid the Golden Egg. Yet they allow her to be mugged, battered and abused while looking the other way Some dumb jealous bitches there that don't realize which side their bread is buttered on.

    Float Tube Seats

    That sounds like putting 10 pounds in a 5 pound sack to me. Better to get something like an Outcast Cruiser Max with oars that can spin the entire boat in a second or two. Complete from the factory, just add water.

    Best adhesive to reinforce level leech pin thread wraps?

    I would think not as that is a 2 step process that requires a cure. Super glue is one and done process that sets in seconds and can be applied with a brush or squeeze container.

    Piscifun Sword CNC machined reel

    Nonsense. Even click pawl reels have enough drag to keep the line from free spooling. And no, they don't work as well as any other reel on the market. The whole point of this conversation was to point out that they don't work as well as other reels. One small design change could make the drag...

    Keepin' It Simple Camping Foods?

    The Costco Idaho Spuds hash browns are an easy filler as one box makes a huge portion. Just add hot water to the box until they re-hydrate then fry. Any meat can be added, like kielbasa, along with some cheese for a filling hot meal in one pan. Knorr pasta sides are easy to prep and pretty darn...

    Keepin' It Simple Camping Foods?

    I hear you Dean, it is especially difficult on a long trip to eat enough and eat well. Since I retired I only eat 2 meals a day and to me the breakfast is the most important. That makes it a little easier but requires a big breakfast to get to dinner time. I can help you for the first 3 days of...

    The Ohuhu stove

    Some of you have known about gasifying stoves for years and have probably used a Solo all that time but I have only been aware of them for about 3 weeks and have owned one for about 2 weeks now. I have learned a lot in 2 weeks having read at least 50 tests or reviews of various models and can...

    More on reels...

    I see the world a little differently than most of my peers and as a result tend to do things my own way rather than in lockstep with conventional wisdom. And reel purchase has been no exception. Rather than buy a variety of fancy name brand reels that are a delight to look at and fish with I...

    Piscifun Sword CNC machined reel

    Perpetually curious, I ordered one of these to see what a $45 reel was actually like and if it was the great buy that internet buyers thought it was. I wanted to use it on my 3 and 4 wt rods, have as a spare and be a loaner when friends visit. I was very impressed with the fit and finish, no...

    SFR Reapplication of Sunscreen?

    I bought a couple of these several years ago but with the face mask, about $30 nowadays. They have been perfect so far and are used heavily not only for fishing but here on the frozen tundra as well. I was in a fly shop 2 years ago and saw one with a name brand logo that was $115. I can't...

    What to do conundrum

    Time to fish some small streams at high elevation for small native fish with light rods or Tenkara. No crowds, cooler temps, great scenery and beautiful fish. Fish like we did when we were kids without being encumbered by all the high tech bullshit we laden ourselves with nowadays. Trust me-it's...

    Chopaka's Evolution

    The handwriting has been on the wall for Chopaka for years now. I first went there back in the 80's at some point, towing a 12' Livingston up the road with my 1977 F-150 Casa Mark I. There was one other camper in the campground at the time and the fishing was just legendary. But I lived very far...

    Coldwater Lake

    I haven't fished it in decades. When it first opened I had one of the best trout fishing days of my life, all big fish and lots of them. Subsequent trips were never as good but on one occasion I kicked the whole length of the lake and fished the inlet. There were lots of fish there and it was...

    Merrill Lake closure

    So many summer evenings we would leave after work in Vancouver and make the long drive up there. Then fish the Hex hatch until dark and start back down the hill. Home around midnight, up at 5:30 and to work by 7:00. It was damned crazy but the fishing was worth the pain 40 years ago. Sorry to...

    Non-stick vs cast iron vs carbon steel.

    It has been 2 months now with the new ceramic pan and it has jumped to the head of the class! I bought one with the machined induction ready bottom and it is flat and stays that way, oil doesn't seem to pool at the edges. At 10 inches it mates up well with the new induction plate in the Casa and...

    Cracks in Thule Cargo Box
