    Yucatan - first Juvenile Tarpon trip

    I’ve got more Pelican notches on my 10 wts than Ringo had on his .45! Always had a heavy Pelican towel for C&R on board. They have ZERO sense of humor. Sounds like you had a good time @goinoregon. There’s times I’d rather have more than bigger.

    NFR World Cup

    I’ll take Togo and the points. Just kidding. I’m fond of Argentina due to people food wine & TROUT. Chile also for the same reasons. Now that I think of it I have to include Norway for the Atlantic Salmon and definitely New Zealand for Trout and their cool accent. I do enjoy watching the...

    SFR 45 years ago today…..

    I was on my way to Salem Oregon with a HyGrade load from Storm Lake Ia. Stopped in Rawlins Wy for fuel and a check call. I was told to hold in SLC and call Nampa at 6 PM. I was told, after hearing some information about it on the am/fm, that Mother Earth blew a gasket that morning at Mt St...

    USPS inefficiency with a simple shipment

    Lesson #1A - Never ship a rod in a round tube with USPS. Everything goes in bins or on racks by algorithms. Three Day Priority / 1 State Away with online notifications for a rebuild. For 10 Days: Local/Knoxville/Richmond/Knoxville/Richmond/Knoxville/Richmond………….ad nauseam. Called Knoxville told...

    I was told via a DM late yesterday all was good. Made my day along with some hard earned fish. Slept the sleep of those who wade upstream @ 75+. 😴

    Iveofione - ?

    I was looking for some info on what Ive connected for heat in his Casa and discovered he hasn’t been on the site since 10/31/25. Anyone know what’s become of one of us old geezers? Hope he’s camped on a secluded beach somewhere chillin’.

    NFR Humor (No political jokes)

    Based on the upcoming overhead signage it looks like they’re headed for their Final Destination at Disney. Could be wrong but they might have a “Quick Checkout” if you get my drift.

    The Green ‘26

    If I can find it again I will post it but prior to departing there on 3/31 I read an article that stated if Flaming Gorge Reservoir was emptied completely the water level in Lake Powell would not rise a full inch. That is the disparity in size between the two. The guide I fish with mentioned the...

    NFR What Are You Reading

    “The Summer of ‘49” by David Halberstam Pulitzer Prize winner for non-fiction. I usually read this book at the start of probably every fifth BB season just to remember what baseball was, and meant to me, in my earliest years. Being New England born you had to pick one or the other of the...

    Interesting. Good closeup. Is the yellowish residue on the head from recent pollination trips? The background looks like your palm. Family pet? 😉
