I have caught fish on the bottom fly, scud or leach. But I have found that I can catch just as many fish on a single fly than using two flies

Love the tiger trout. My best was 18" caught in a little lake in central WA. I have seen some tigers in Diamond lake, OR that would go double digit

I have hunted both with bow and rifle for many, many years and what I believe is hunting is more about being out with mother nature than killing. The advice above is all good. Thank you for asking a good question on this board. Get started now and the rewards will last a life time.

Life has its ups and downs. I like to catch a fish when I go fishing. Big, small doesn't matter. I just want to fool'em. Lately I just can't get motivated to go wet a line. Is the river to high, muddy, or do I have other things that get in the way of fishing. Cost of fuel has gotten me in an...

You don't get over it; you just get through it. And when you least expect it, it will bite ya in the ass. Embrace the loss and keep on keeping on. Love you and miss you my friends.

LOL I remember also

I would rather fly fish with a dry fly, but when I see midges coming off and not many rises. Get out the bobber.

The only excuse I have for not going fishing these days is the cost of fuel at $5.00 a gallon. I have been retired for 14 years now, and I still waste a lot of time keeping my house clean, mowing the lawn, etc.

This is a true story as far as I know. My son that lives in Helena, MT told me of a guy, (a fat guy) that went headfirst out of a drift boat and drown because his waders filled with air and the guide could not get the guy turned back right side up. In my book that would not be how I would like...

My last encounter with Oregon fish and wildlife LEO was like. He pulled into the parking lot and boat launch and started checking the power bait crowd for lic. I was casting a fly in a cove for blue gill or crappy when he walked up. I turned to face him and give him my lic but he saw my Trout...

Looks like my kinda neighborhood. Ticks and lots of poison oak.

Nice!!!!

yup

I was working in the Idaho panhandle north of BF. Wake up and opened the tent fly and there in the mud in front of my tent was a track and big track with big claws. True story

two thumbs up for the lady fly fishers

My favorite is the folks that use the ramp as the swimming area. The little lake I'm talking about has no swimming area, the shore line is completely lined with bull rush and cat tails. If ya want to swim go to the big lake with the nice beach

I was fishing off a beach on Grand Bahama Island. I was standing waist deep in the water, casting at the sea grass patches when something swam by me on my right. It was big, maybe 5' long. I stripped in as fast as I could and when I had about 10' of line still out, I lifted my rod to cast in the...

I was out to RF in early spring when a couple, I believe husband and wife showed up with their walkie/talkies turned up as load as possible and kept up talking/yelling to each other when they were only a few feet apart. I kept moving farther away and they kinda kept following me. I finally just...

I know how "it" happened, at least how "it" happened to me. One evening I was fishing a private lake in OKanogan Co. WA I was rowing around in a little boat trolling a wooly bugger. I had been on the water for over an hour and it was starting to get dark. I had not had a bite even through fish...

Oregon would go bankrupt if that initiative passed. Most stupid initiative I have ever seen.
