Thank you so much for sharing - great story, awesome photos

Any time I hear "adult damsels", I think of that famous lake and a couple others. But the famous lake is the best!

Thanks for the tip on fall fishing, Gene.

Went up that way last week, with the intention of renewing my friendship with East Lake, and attempting to figure out Paulina (had not fished there before). Arrived to wind, wind, more wind on Day 1; fished from 1:30 - 4:30 after waiting out the wind for a couple of hours, and caught the usual...

I didn't look through the whole list, but will vouch for these: Two Rivers Fly Shop, Albany, OR Fly Fishers Place, Sisters, OR - plus great up-to-date reports from area rivers/lakes Stehekin Fishing Adventures Confluence Fly Shop, Bellingham, WA

Could you PM the info on that Eastern Brook lake? :) Seriously - great list!

The first photo may be one of the best grip'n'grins ever!

agreed, but we took that into account in our thought process. I've been expecting the hatch to really kick off since late April, and if anything, it's winding down. Went to the callibaetis lake the other day, and caught a few fish looking up, but the hatch lasted about 10 minutes. And it was...

I don't know whether to post this in general forum or in the flytying/bug forum, but I'll start here first looking for the bigger audience. Let me focus on two lakes I fish before I get to the question. I fished this lake often last year and was stunned by the consistency and size of the...

Thanks, Steelheardr. I'm hoping to get over there - a bit dependent on a couple family issues.

thanks to Bakerite and Mel. And Mel, I'm looking for a couple weeks from now, before Memorial Day, so hopefully it'll pick up a bit.

I haven't had the opportunity to fish Crane Prairie, and it's possible I'll get that opportunity soon. It is of course a big lake, and I fish out of a pontoon boat. Which of the boat launches would be my best choice? I'd love to hear rationale as well. THANKS!

can't wait to be here in September.

When fishing emergers, a 12'+ leader is essential. Microcurrents on that river are extremely difficult; the long leader is very important.

If I want to know what the weather will be, it's NWS. If I want to understand the weather, it's Cliff Mass.

Short report on a float in the Leaburg (sp?) area. Fished last Thursday - a couple fish were caught in the AM under indicators, and more fish were caught in the afternoon during a sporadic March Brown hatch. Fish were mostly between 14-16", except for an overeager 4"er. Water was a bit high...

Fished that lake a lot when I lived nearby. You're absolutely correct about those two-handed browns. And you're absolutely right about the drop in success since the rules changed. I believe that the rule change pissed off the shorefront owners enough that they're setting their own rules and...
