    NFR Earthquake off Orcas 3/3/25

    Woke us and the dogs up on North Whidbey, felt like one of the EA-18Gs was going overhead but it was fairly quiet and kept going and going and going. First earthquake for me, was cool but don't want a bigger one thanks.

    Seattle Orvis Store Closing

    I'm sure location has a lot to do with it, but I think the observation about Patagonia across the street is telling. Orvis is much more of an apparel line than fishing and like others pointed out, its pretty tough to try and cast a line in downtown seattle. But if they're pushing clothing I...

    WDFW salt water survey

    Just what area you fished, how you fished (beach, boat, etc.), where you fished (they had a list of beaches since I only beach fished) and what you fished for.

    Makin' bacon

    I'm unashamed of my bacon tastes. I like it just shy of being crispy. Not limp to the point where its still mostly uncooked fat but I dislike cronching my way though bacon (but I won't turn down crunchy bacon mind you). Also actually curing bacon is a thing I've done previously but not in many...

    Vibram or felt sole..?

    I use the vibram with aluminum hex cleats on my korkers for the river (well for the beach as well because I'm lazy and don't change them out) unless I'll be in someone's drift boat or raft, when I swap them out for felt. For floating in my watermaster I usually stick with the cleats, they...

    Post your first fish of 2025 here

    Went out for the first time this year, felt good . . . caught my first stick of the year. Then got summoned by the SO to pick them up with their bike because of a flat tire.

    Lake etiquette very poor today

    Yep! Well congrats on the first trip out! Sorry to indicate you had a bad day when clearly you didn't. Thats what I get for making judgements driving by too fast on 20 :LOL:

    Lake etiquette very poor today

    Could also just be wrong! Two man raft slightly deflated on the bed of a truck? Maybe I'm just projecting at me putting my kayak/raft in the bed of my truck :LOL:

    Lake etiquette very poor today

    No, drove by a guy with a two person raft at the offramp of 5 and 20, drove back by pass lake on the way home and saw the same raft. Although given @jeradjames comment that may have been him as I hit the highway around 11something.

    Lake etiquette very poor today

    I'll say that I saw that guy getting off the expressway and loading up his raft on my way back home (and I assume you on the lake on the way out and back), he didn't look like he was having a good day.

    North Sound TU - 2024 "Iron Fly" tying event was pretty cool!

    I had this on my mental list of things to do, sadly my mental calendar doesn't do reminders and I completely forgot it was a thing. Next year!

    Advice on finding quality fishing partners

    My only fishing friend to date was a previously made friend who said he was interested in fishing and I convinced him fly fishing was a thing he should try. 10 years later he finally got wholly hooked, just in time for me to leave Portland to move to Whidbey, so I'm in the sameish boat of trying...
