Damn things are fun as all hell on an 8 wt. If I could figure out how to specifically find and target them consistently, I would be all about doing fly trips for them. First day I ran into them I was casting an 8 wt for the coho, feeling over gunned. But even the smaller jacks would cork that...

Dang, wish I was home this summer. Having Dave out to fish pinks would be a riot!

I have one last salmon trip at the end of the month, kind of a special situation trip, but for all intents and purposes today marked the end of my salmon season. Headed offshore Friday. I can't wait for tuna fishing, but it was a pretty damned fun salmon/jack mackerel season.

As a life long metal fan, Ozzy impacted my life greatly. Saw him/Sabbath four or five times. Such a legend. Truly one of the most influential artists to ever walk the earth. Iconic voice, and overall character as well. What a legacy to leave behind. Truly. Not sure anyone could ever...

So I've been fishing a stinger clouser simply because I had one tied on the rod from the last time I fished it, which was summer 2023 lol. The fly is mangled and the hook is pretty beat up, so I've missed/lost quite a few, but it's getting the job done. But honestly for ocean coho I much...

Hey all! Sorry I haven't been around in some time. Life happens and things have been pretty crazy for me. As Evan mentioned, I've been in salmon purgatory but that's all set to end come Friday when I finally get to switch over and head offshore. Although salmon charters are far from my...

Wait wait wait....am I the only one seeing what's going on here? The EURO NYMPHER is asking us for the easiest way to catch trout! Isn't that what euro nymphing is all about??? The answer is staring you in the face ;) In all honesty though, you seem pretty dialed in with the euro stuff...

Out of all of the rock bands that came out of that era in the 90s, STP was my fav. Scott Weiland was one of my all time favorite rock vocalists. Man I love his voice. I was so sad when he passed.

Saw this on FB. Very cool. I've never met Michelle, but I follow her from afar and she seems like a really neat lady and someone Id enjoy meeting sometime. I'll have to pay this shop a visit sometime.

Spent an uncomfortably wet day on the water today, but fishing was good enough to make us forget about it for periods of the day. Theme of the day was fish concentrated in very specific areas, very active on fry. Almost all of our fish came from these specific spots, with little shown in the...

Great recommendation here. The Bugout is a nice little EDC folder, but the Deka, IMO is a much better buy.

Those look great Rod! To my eye it looks like you took the collar to City but the tails to City+. Nice combo. ;)

What is the best 5 wt for elk anyway?

I've been meaning to pick one of these up for quite a while now. I typically have to muscle my boat four or five feet in or out of my carport. Never been a huge deal, but the front wheel tends to dig into the gravel and make the process more difficult than it needs to be. One of those trailer...

I zero real experience with either species, so this is just based on what little I do know about them both... If the question is based around a one time encounter of would I rather catch a dorado or a wahoo on a cast fly, Id take wahoo just because of their speed, reputation for aerial strikes...

Due to diabetes I have to severely limit simple carbs, so pork rinds has become my go to when I need some crunch. Pork rinds have come a long ways since I was a kid. There's some real high quality stuff out there, and some very cool flavors. My wife buys tubs of crushed rinds at Walmart...

Didn't take any pics, but a lack of dinner plans and losing track of time last night resulted in taking a jar of home canned albacore, mixed it up with some egg, green onion, garlic and some other spices, grated Parmesan, and some crushed smoke flavored pork rinds. Made patties and into the air...

Is there large numbers of commercially caught steelhead coming to market in places in the world anyone is aware of? Just curious, as it seems that if some of these vessels are catching them in numbers they'd either need to find a market for it, or just dump it immediately. Id have to think it...

Whoa....congrats Brian! Huge pink forecast followed by Brian's retirement announcement..... coincidence? Doubtful.

Please post pics ;)
