    Ideas for an August trip

    Chrome as i was looking at the regs for Quillayute for july (not August) it has this: July 16-July 31 Bait or lure must be suspended below a float. Does that mean if you're fly fishing you have to use a bobber/indicator?

    Puget Sound

    Richard- the coyote vs tree size diff is the telephoto lens exaggeration; background looks way bigger. I was surprised how marked it was when going through the photos.

    I have a family of 3 degenerate crows that wash all manner of nonsense in all the bird baths I have. It has become disgusting and I have to sweep the baths sometimes two times a day and will leave them unfilled for days. Definitely since COVID the Corvids have brain rot or something. They are no...

    NFR What Are You Reading

    Salmo if you can sleuth down the Sacks article from the New Yorker maybe a year or two ago it is worth a read. Particularly the part "Is anything real."
