    Missing caprs?

    They’re different fishes, kind of like silvers, rezzies and coho. Also, Atlantic Salmon.

    I’ve encountered quite a few Skagit system bull char that would beg to differ with that assessment.

    Getting bled dry

    That's a hot tip. Thanks! I recently paid my boat and trailer tab fees in person since I had forgotten to renew before they expired. I paid the bill with a personal check to avoid that $3 fee, which seems like a backwards incentive to make them handle paper and all that. It feels weird writing...

    Has anyone made cased sausage? Worth the trouble?

    I’ve spent enough time at the Capitol in Olympia seeing how the sausage is made to be able to tell ya, it ain’t pretty! That’s figurative sausage though. Literal sausage making is much tidier than what happens in Olympia.

    Awesome Dogs of PNW

    A last trip to a favorite place with lots of good smells and good tastes today and we said goodbye to Omar at home this afternoon. We are sad. I’m not quite sure what to do with myself at the moment. So long, good boy.

    Nobody Likes a Bully…

    @Coach Potter how did you have your dropper tied to the upper fly? Tied to the bend, hook eye, or other? For the sake of Science.

    Reflections from the end of my first long term relationship

    I just realized the movie that the gif I posted came from, Swingers, came out almost a decade before @speedbird was born, so he’s probably not getting the reference. Like, at all. It’s a movie where some guys take their broken hearted buddy to Vegas. Pretty funny, might be worth a watch!

    Summer trout games

    I’ve caught some interesting, beautiful but puzzling, hybrids in the Crick over the years. There are rainbows around, too, so ya never know… Also, it’s admittedly small water, but those are some huge old growth trees and logs with a lotta pics taken at 0.5 zoom so the scale may be a little...

    Grady-White owner donating the company

    He’s setting it up in a Purpose Trust similar to what Chouinard did with Patagonia. Kinda makes me like those boats even more, and I have always admired them...

    Summer trout games

    I decided I needed to check on the Crick, my first time since the wild floods of last December. The water is low, no surprise, but cool, and the fish were really chowing. This is one of those tribs that has fish that are bigger than a lot of the ones you catch in the mainstem. They sometimes...
