I've never heard of a head coach moved to "advisor". What does that mean? They already have a coach for just about every football move the players can make, what does an x head coach do as advisor? Halfway through the season I told my wife Pete wouldn't be coaching next season. ...but...

I was involved for many years with a group from Westfly that fought with the state legislature in Oregon over river rights. Some of them thought landowners could own parts of the river but we proved to them that was incorrect. One of the guys on our side spent weeks in the legislature...

College football was part of the fabric of Corvallis and Pullman ... now that there is no Pac 12 and because players and coaches are evaporating, chances are, at least Corvallis won't be known as a college town anymore. Damned shame that money brought down the athletic departments of OSU...

You know, there are a few drawing errors in mascot cartoon for KU ...... :p

For a shop to survive these days, it would need a catalog website plus sell through Amazon. I know the shop in Albany sells items through Amazon. Plus, you'd need to offer a heck of a guide service. We have a shop in Corvallis, after coming and going many times, that offers many...

At one time, me and our flyfishing club were very active in making regulation changes to some fisheries. We were able to change the regs to wild trout C&R for a specific section of the Willamette River regardless that we were told we wouldn't be successful. But that was back in the days the...

This is still my favorite:

Evan, I couldn't help but notice your Seahawks hat is a tad dated .....

Hopefully it doesn't get broken because someone used up all the glue on purpose....

Over a year ago, we had to finally put our beloved dog, Mia, down. The bladder cancer finally got her but we did battle it off for 13 months. After a fashion, we decided our home was too quiet without a dog so we looked and looked for an adult dog that fit our requirements. We couldn't...

The defensive coach for the Beavs has taken the head coach job. So at least the players will have a coach that plans on staying at OSU when they play their bowl game.

Well, as I feared. Once the ten teams bailed out of the Pac 12 leaving the Pac 2, coaches and players would start going elsewhere. The best coach we've had in decades, Johnathan Smith, is leaving the Beavs for Michigan State. And of course taking additional coaches with him. And who...

Decades ago I caught my first steelhead and was using fly gear during the winter run on the Miami. I was waaaaaay above the chum fishing section and have no idea if its even open these days for steelhead. My friends and I also attended the chum circus on the Kilchis and Miami. Sometimes...

Geeezus..... I'm still laughing over that first clip .... I'm not even sure why I find that so funny. The hiker was clearly out of control of the situation :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

You don't really want to overthink all this. We are really just waving around a manufactured rod strung with some manner of cord and trying to convince a fish that what we're tossing in the water is something they can eat... It's about as simple as you can get.... unless you overthink...

Damn. This thread has made me realize Jim won't be posting here anymore, ever. Never met him but we'd used the private messaging from time to time and we met virtually a long, long time ago so I feel like I got to know him. I miss the guy.

I knew Diamond held large rainbow but had no idea there are also big browns in the lake. Thanks for the report.

I lean toward this opinion. He was no hero of mine.

When it appears OSU and WSU belong to a conference with one foot in the grave, it is going to be damned difficult to maintain the players they have now and recruit for next season. It's a damned shame.

We discovered the upstream Kokes would hit streamers and steelhead patterns .... specifically, a Purple Joe. We also discovered the trout are wise to the spawning salmon so very small egg patterns were effective behind the Kokanee. Great report on the spots that taught me how to...
