I was night fishing for catfish with my brother in Alabama as a kid. We favored night crawlers and chicken livers for bait. It was a pleasant, breezy summer night, but action was slow. I thought I had a bite so I started reeling and came tight, but it was a snag. A flexible snag. I realized the...

I won’t be googling that one, but when I was a kid it had two main meanings. Primary was a joust where two people are trusty steeds and hoist knights upon their shoulders who thereupon engage in battle to dismount the other knight. This was frequently done in the water. The secondary meaning was...

Time for a Chicken Fight. :p

Also good, but very different from Cornell chicken. Basting is the enemy of crispness, and I like my Cornell chicken skin crisp. In a way, the whole recipe is about producing juicy flavorful meat and crisp skin. At least for me.

Looks like it could use some big wood jams to add cover and complexity.

Releasing some baby pacific tree frogs.

Yeah they know.

For all I know it may have been recycled and is sitting on a shelf in your neighborhood Fred Meyer right now!

How can you tell?

“I know some of y’all can’t do cheese ‘cause you’re lactose intolerant. I can’t tolerate you!” Bwahaha

I might need a drawing… :)

Ahh…summer camping in Alaska, with nary a mosquito, black fly, or nosy bear in sight! Those must’ve been the days.

I liked @Shawn Seeger ’s drawing so much that I had to do my own to show a slight variation I’ve been trying. It’s not too different from what others have shared but rather than loop the dropper onto the tippet going to the upper fly, I just knot it directly on and it jams against the non slip...

Instead of GSL this year? Or in addition to…?
