    What's Catching You Fish?

    Shout out to Clarkman for giving me a bag of his giant musky flies. Randy, you told me to try them for bull trout, and I always (seldom) do as I'm told. :cool: You can't see the fly very well in this picture but it is a massive walking, twitching, darting monster that did the trick. This...

    Thank you Tom and everyone for sharing this and inspiring me. I know there are crawdads in many of my favorite lakes, but I've been too lazy to try them.

    What's Catching You Fish?

    Fish a high Cascade Lake and saw big fish chomping something large on the surface. Not sure but seemed like they were occasionally eating the butterflies that are everywhere this summer. Tried a chubby...no takers. Then I went to my fav O Caddis pattern Whomp! Got two big brownies

    Fishing out of Craig MT

    The Mo has good numbers of nice size fish. Being a tailwater it is somewhat protected from spring tunoff but can still have rather high flows. If other area streams are blown out, all the guides head to the Mo, so probably avoid weekends. BWOs. various mayflies, caddis, sow bugs, worms and...

    Extreme eastern Oregon tailwater...

    ...almost to Idaho, where every spud chucker comes to fish. You know the spot. So catching was rather slow on the usual assortment of tiny zebra midges and mayfly nymphs. We were getting some, but not the reliable results my friends usually experience. Never the less, it was a great trip and...

    The good boat deal thread

    I was just reminiscing with some friends about my Buoy 10 mis-adventure fishing from a 13 foot Livingston. A hot coho got wrapped in the prop, and while trying to reach out to unwind it ... I fell out of the boat head first! Doh! :rolleyes:
