Do you fish lakes? You might be a fly fisherman. If you do fish lakes do you cast and strip only? You might be a fly fisherman. If you do fish lakes do you cast out then "fin flip around" with your fly in the water? You are not a fly fisherman.....lol

Two buddies and I just got home from 2 days fishing a nearby reservoir. We spent 100% of the time fishing floating lines and indicators. Over the 2 days we figured we landed around 130 rainbows. 90% of them 15-18". The other 10% were 19-24". Fat as can be and strong fish. But trust me indicator...

That's why I much prefer fishing reports that give me some real data and not just a persons perspective. Oh best trip of my life. Man it was off the charts. Boy did it suck. Its great to read those things but then give me at least a little of the "rest of the story." LOL

Sorry to say but I have more trouble with kayakers and canoeists at the ramp tying it up than all the idiots with boats. Had a discussion at a ramp this winter. Guys had a truck with a rack and 4 kayaks. The ramp is designed for two rigs to launch at once but no these guys backed down the very...

The second fish would make a really good GT/Tuna/Pike bait.....lol. Might be a little tough to cast on a 12wt?

Down here on the gulf for another month. But a budd who also has a house here left this morning to head home to Cataldo. Said that big wind hit them and their place up there is without power. Again. Second big storm they have had the last few months.

Forget any "cracking the code'. Its the P. Moodiest biters of any fish I have ever chased. Some trips are great, others just ok, and some are total busts. Couple of years ago 4 of us went. Fished 3 days. Landed 5 fish between us. Now one of those was 18# but talk about slow. Its just how those...

The first time I went to the Seychelles one of my targets was to get the record IGFA dogtooth. Was blind casting deep around a pod of baitfish and got a ripping hit. After a minute the line was cut through and the South African I was fishing with that afternoon thought it was a big barracuda. So...

I am going to be just totally honest here. What I am sharing is just my opinion. Feel free to take it our toss it out with the garbage. XMAS Pros: Cheapest decent saltwater fly trip around. Lots of bonefish. XMAS Cons: Average size bonefish are small. Your post (not picking on you) showed...

After a lot of investigation and late night thinking, yes a few beers were involved, we decided to head to French Polynesia next March. At the end of the day the bottom line was that the excruciating flight to Cocos just overshadowed any small advantage it had for the actual fishing. We did...

Don't get to excited about being on a boat. The Tribe has closed the lake for all boats due to water levels. No word on how long they expect it to be closed. Now I don't know if this applies to shore launched pontoons but power boats are out for now.

There is only one option at the lake itself. Otherwise its staying down toward Reno which is about 45 minutes away depending on where you are fishing. I have stayed in the rental campers numerous times and they are fine. But the food in the lodge is ...ah....ok would be a bit of a stretch...

So I have developed a bit of tennis elbow. Doing the massage and strength exercises. Manageable and not keeping me from fishing. But also not getting much better and NO I am not going to stop fishing. Not happening. So my question is if any of you guys have tried a support sleeve like Copper Fit...

Is it expensive? Certainly. Is it worth the money? It is to every body who buys one. I won't but I have no problem at all spending near that for a new Abel. Life is short and its my money. Not going to chastise somebody for buying an Asskissth. Now the name? Well its just stupid.....LOL

Posted this on another forum but thought maybe try here too. I am thinking about a trip to one of these two areas in 2027. Travel easier to French Polynesia for sure but I also really like the idea of having flats skiffs at Coco Keeling. And Coco Keeling seems a bit nicer accommodations and...

Just ordered a new prop for my skiff from Olympic Prop Co. :)

Great report!!

Here's a few pics.

I'll try and get some pics up in the next couple of days. Busy getting back after redfish. Priorities you know. LOL PS - I know reports with a bunch of numbers turns some guys off. I get that. However, I tend to do that because it is most accurate and to let others decide if it was ok...

Just got home from a week at Lago Strobel and what a crazy week it was. We saw everything the place has to offer. Arrived Saturday early afternoon. Got settled and then guide took us to lower Moro Creek that was just loaded with 3-6# trout and a few bigger. Fished an orange scud (which I am...
