The only gun I ever regret selling is my 6" S&W 686+

So to start: Gun people can be very opinionated. I certainly have a couple opinions. But the most important thing is that you do whatever feels the best for you, and that if you want to use it in a self defense scenario you train to use that gun. If you want to use a gun with a safety, then go...

Picked this up last night. Definitely get whats on the tin, casting and chilling. Kept me occupied for a while, managed to tie a fly while playing and letting it idle. I really want to play that but I've never seen it below $60 which my brain rebels at for some reason.

I'd be tentatively interested.

There were a good number of folks on the 530 bridge by Howard Miller with binoculars on Saturday so I assume they were staring at something. Saw a few flying around on the sauk as well.

WDFW didn't cut the program. The State cut the program and tons of other programs. Whining about WDFW probably feels good, but it doesn't get anything done. Write your state reps and tell them that you think its important it gets funded as a permanent part of the WDFW budget.

I'd do it because I could say "I fished with this reel I made and caught a fish" Its one of the reasons I enjoy tying my flies and why I'd consider building a rod. Beyond that with 3d printing specifically you can do a lot of shapes that can't be done with casting or CNC machining. I can't think...

Yeah, they sold hay from those fields until last year ( I think this is what the manager said ), they had to stop because the non-grass plants in the field became too prevalent and so they couldn't hay it anymore.

Absolutely no idea :LOL: There was a mix of wetland deciduous trees and shrubs (they all looked like red sticks to me). There will be conifers mixed in as well but those weren't there to plant yet.

The holes have been there for months, but yeah the multitude of little sticks are new. Supposedly all of the fields will get the full treatment but it didn't sound like they were solid on what that timeline is

My wife volunteered me to do a thing on new years day. Saw this picture show up today from the Deception Pass Park Foundation (and somehow I made it in the picture in my Confluence hoodie) The hay fields next to Pass are owned by the state park, and previously were used for hay production but...

I heard from a guy in the know that said that the TU lobbyist reported that the 'private funding' idea was dead in the water. Either way, write (and keep writing) your state congresscritters, they need to make sure that the QS funding is in the permanent WDFW budget, not a line item, which is...

I'd agree, its just a different way of having focus. I don't often find the hyperfocus anymore, not sure why. But what I have found is that I can use the short attention span to my attention as well. My job involves dealing with lots of different pathways at once. Usually I'm able to stop what...

I just double checked, I must have finished the last fly I was working on. I definitely get distracted by, pretty much anything, when tying flies, or watching TV (or working). Got an ADD diagnosis decades ago, but was old enough to decide for myself what to do, ended up forgoing any drugs and...

The water on the Skagit was finally low enough to try fishing/exploring some of the spots, still too high for lots of good access though. Lots of trees lodged in new places (like tree trees, not just logs). One creek mouth I fish quite a bit has completely shifted its channel, it looks like a...

Still looking and still trying to understand value and what is reasonable. Saw this one of FB and figured I'd use it as a for example: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1408950667281682/ 2008 Clackacraft FFB drift boat Very nice drift boat package, ready to hit the water today.This...

I've definitely taken to opening mine before I do any big trip where I'll be out of 5G coverage. It helps that I habitually look at the app to imagine where I want to go fishing next;.

I have a pair of just the rubber soles right now, I figured I'd try them and see if I wanted to buy the cleats or not (spoiler, they came with the cleats) Now I have to decide if I want to stick the cleats in and buy another pair for boat use. When I put them on the first time I was honestly...

I got a pair of these for christmas, hands down the best wading boots I've had just based on the past couple outings.
