    Annual License fees 2026-2027

    Pay more, get less - that's the issue. If it were pay more, get the same - that's understandable. But when you pay more for something and get less, that's not inflation. That's getting screwed, camouflaged as "inflation".

    Early Signs of Spring

    We were in moses lake for a hockey tournament over the weekend - took my boys to RF (they'd never been). My oldest commented several times about how cool the red wing blackbirds were. They were very active and really vocal.

    YES on Bill 6241

    So, each WRIA with native steelhead is going to have to do this? Feels like a really bad idea. Honest question, why is this a bill and not something WDFW would decide on? 1 SB 62411 (1) In every WRIA as defined in RCW 90.82.020 with a native 2 steelhead population, the department must...

    Any use the Garmin InReach?

    I started carrying the in reach in the truck. If I'm paying for it, figured I might as well use it all the time. Never know when you're going to get into some sticky situation on the road - maybe a wreck and your phone breaks? I don't know, but figured it's good to carry just in case it's needed.

    LAST MINUTE NORTH SOUND: Lagers & Letters with TU (skagit CnR season, etc)

    Also, friendly reminder to support groups like Backcountry Hunters & Anglers if you can. They're out there fighting the good fight on behalf of all of us who enjoy spending time on public land. Which I think is pretty much everyone on this forum. @Millsfly if you're still with them - drop a...

    SFR Corner crossing update

    Really really good thing - unless you're a really rich person who bought property that corner blocks public access and you've been using that public property as your own and restricting public access via corner crossing....but I think those are the rare exceptions. So yeah, good thing.

    Not just local fly shops are closing (not that Orvis is anything but a clothing store now)

    Commercial construction saw (at peak) 3.5% - 5% increase due to tariffs. Maybe residential is different, but I'd be surprised if it were that much different.
