Pepperoni is always tender.

Looks like a fly line on a spincast reel to me. I wouldn't think that would work well. The rod looks pretty short for two handing like he's doing. The right equipment for lobbing a treble wrapped with pencil lead perhaps?

Finding a way to squeeze in some more advertising?

The way I use them, I do it at home with a good light. And yes you can see the wire better than tippet.

A good friend told me to get a box with these before a trip to Chopaka. There was a caddis hatch right at dark that felt like you were sitting in a piranha infested lake for a bit. The problem being it was getting dim enough you couldn't thread the eye of your hook. Once threaded the knot...

One of my favorite fishing buddies, now departed, (and RIP Terry). used to select reels for the sound they make. One of my favorite things to hear was his chuckle as he hooked a fish, and then hopefully the reel singing its lovely tune. He didn't make a big deal of it but you could share his...

I tried those M7s last year. They were SWEET. Pretty much a do all ski.

My wife and I went stealth camping kinda late one evening in the Oregon coast range one night. Got some hammocks slung in the trees after dark. Later we thought we were under attack. There was a family of them not 50' from where we set up, unbeknownst to us. They calmed down after a while...

You spend your whole life learning how to live it......... hopefully.

About the same. I nearly capsized my canoe on a beaver once.

Speaking of rings behind you. How many of you have had an osprey nab a fish in your blind spot while out on the water. Fishing a hexagenia hatch on one of the local lakes, I had that happen maybe ten feet behind my tube. I nearly had to paddle to shore to change my drawers.

I don't listen to music out in the wilds, but I sure appreciate those that do using something that I don't have to participate in. I have the hearing aids that will play sound from my phone. I use them when puttering in my shop. When I run a saw or some other loud equipment, I wear headphones...

Great songwriter tho...

Temporary insanity. Probably not a degenerate asshole. Tough love educator? Long ago on the fifth of July after a spectacular night of drinking, I arrived at my car to find all four tires flat. The culprit, had awoken me at 5 am and offered to help me. He was mad because I grabbed his...

I'm not proud of supporting this kind of behavior either, but I kind of enjoy thinking about the surprised stream of profanity when these losers discovered the predicament they were in.

I hope this was at least 50 miles from the nearest Les Schwab.

Keep at it, and soon those that ask why will be asking you how. Synthetic materials are where things get really complicated as there are multiple brands of things that are quite similar. You can still get good advice from a fly shop on the phone or with some emails. Be clear about what you...

I used to fish with a guy that loved to fish what he called bucktails. They were bushy high floating things kind of like a stimulator, but different. many times I would have told him that doesn't match the hatch or whatever, but he would be outfishing every one with his bucktail because the...

If they were carrying, how many of them would have the skills to make an impact? Or recognize what is going on in time? Jason Bourne does not exist. More likely the mix of alcohol and firearms would lead to more heartache. Anecdotally from my experience, half the gun owners don't even know...

Tragic. Now the media will blow this up into a spectacle, ensuring that another suicidal person has some inspiration into how they want to go out. Didn't a similar thing happen just days ago? And yes, part of the problem is spiritual. We need some help looking critically at ourselves, and...
