    That feeling when you get some new fly fishing stuff

    Can't wait to use this stuff. I also bought the sink 8 version for my 8wt to use at Pyramid. Effortless distance casting.

    A couple '26 goals: fish new spots and catch new species - Pyramid Lake

    :ROFLMAO: I had confidence I was in the game for about 4 hours out of 4 days of fishing. The last morning for example. I was stripping flies for 40 minutes without a bump. Switched to the indicator. The current was pushing it to the bank. I let it sit on the edge of the drop for a bit and...

    A couple '26 goals: fish new spots and catch new species - Pyramid Lake

    I joined some friends who make the trip to Pyramid quite often. It was nice to have a "guide" on my first trip. My expectations were low as the weather forecast was pretty nice for the first 3 days of our trip - last Thursday - Saturday. We were all looking forward to Sunday and Monday -...

    Poor mans retirement. Panama?

    No personal experience - yet. My wife hung it up last December and I plan to retire in May. We will be spending some time down there at some point. It always shows up near the top of best places to retire lists - especially when there is a cost emphasis. You could always do a long term...

    Anyone wanna go to Christmas island next winter?

    My brother-in-law lives in New Zealand. He is considering a trip to The Villages. The price for him would be $3400 AUD - about $2400 US. I contacted the guy to see if I could get that rate - nope.

    Big game saltwater 60 degree jig hook?

    I went to Sportsman's the other day to get some more of the Gama 60 jigs. They didn't have them anymore but had some Umpqua X series jig hooks - XS 506 BN. Lighter wire and larger barb than a SL12S so I think breaking the hook at the barb is a possibility. I bought a pack of 2/0s. Will stick...

    What's Catching You Fish?

    One of my goals is to fish new water. Figured I would start that with my first trip of the year. Can't remember the last time my first trout of the year make me smile so much.

    New Asquith

    I had a professor who did his materials research with sporting goods companies. He said it was the only market that would pay top $ for small improvements in performance.

    Need some clarification on the banana jinx

    It is my understanding that this started with a Hawaiian king. Making excuses for being a shitty fisherman goes back a long way!
