If you can access a place to catch them in the salt you will get a much better quality fish hands down. I smoke most of my pinks but they are not bad for fresh eating when chrome, bled and iced properly. In my experience they start to turn once they even get a sniff of fresh water. That being...

I enjoy the best of both worlds. Slow wind drifting with the bobber on. Works well with a balanced leech when I’m searching on a new to me lake. If I had to pick between trolling and bobber watching I’m going with bobber for sure. Trolling is reserved for travel purposes most of the time.

Brats and tater salad.

Obviously that’s just the imprint of a wave crashing into the cliff.

Razor clam pasta.

Thanks for sharing Guy. AZ has some good rock hounding from what I’ve heard. Last spring my partner and I went down there for a wedding. We took a day to look for fire agates but switched gears after coming up dry to look for our first AZ morels. Such a cool region. I need to get back there and...

These look killer! I caught my PB Stillwater rainbow on a pattern very similar to this (but not as nice) while bass fishing. It was a hot and sunny July day. Pitched an olive bunny crawdad underneath a dock and it got absolutely crushed. Thought I had a state record LMB on until I realized it...

Agreed on Bulgarian carrot. It’s been a few years since I’ve grown them but they are one of my favorites. Good suggestion.

If you can get an early start on either jalapeños or Serranos and get them to go red ripe, that’s another solid option. More flesh than cayenne. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with this season!

Thai chilis are all pain and little flavor IMO. I’ve powdered them before but a little goes a long way and I’ve over-spiced quite a few dishes with them. A good place to start as an alternative would be Cayenne. They grow quite well out here. They are a good choice for heavy bearing, spicy...

Deboned whole chicken with stuffing, mashed potatoes and wild winter mushroom sauce (black trumpets, yellowfoot, hedgehogs).

This has been one of the worst years for colds and flu that I remember. I work in a public setting with lots of staff. It seems like almost everyone I work with has gotten it this year, myself included. I got sick in mid-January for about a week, then again a few weeks later. I never recall ever...

Early signs of spring are appearing. Miner’s lettuce and grapefruit salad. The grapefruit came from a small tree my neighbor gifted me. Thick piths on the fruits but pretty damn good for a Washington grown grapefruit.

Well, I live in Tacoma and work in south Seattle-ish. Anything Seattle based would draw a bigger group IMO.

Man, I’d be way more down for this if the location was more centralized. Sounds like fun.

Not to discount the doom and gloom of the current times because that shit is real. But…. Looking solely at Orvis as a company. Are they competitive with marketing strategies? Are they catering to a new generation of consumers? I’ve never shopped at an Orvis store and I don’t own any Orvis...

And a few good non-glowy ones…

A few good glowy ones from the last couple days. 😁

Biodegradable golf balls? I found at least 6 of them on the beach yesterday. And nowhere near a golf course.
