At 95 years old. He's one of my favorite actors, it always seemed he was the character he played, not the other way around. There's lots of clips you'll see I'm sure, from Apocalypse Now, or countless other roles, even To Kill A Mockingbird for goodness sakes. This is one of my favorites.

And my boat upgrade (+MOB system) is ready….it seems like I oughta be hunting carp…what say you???

Drying your stuff (waders, especially boots, boats, etc) is the first, best step. If there’s no time, remove all dirt/debris and sanitize with a dilute bleach or ammonia solution (one or the other, not both, 2.5 oz/gallon of water) and you’ll be okay. In both cases wash off any debris or dirt...

Vans are great,aren't they?

If we don't get some significant storms between now and April 1 it's gonna be a dry, dry fire season. Maybe it will anyway. With respect to the 20 year median ending 2020, most snowpack numbers right now south or west of Spokane are at best 50%, east and north of here the good snowpack numbers...

I was there in 2024…what a great time! Go if you can…

FYI, if you haven't tried a K-pump, you should. I use it for my Southfork and my 2-Salt Steelhead, way better than those foot jobbies and those stupid hook-to-your-battery things, or the huge handle pumps. I haven't been able to get my Ryobi to get enough pressure. Over time I've found that when...

I don’t know that they are “for bigger birds”. The Browning (and the Remington) had a slightly smaller hook than some others. Haven’t shot a partridge around these parts in some time.

Always used a gut hook to remove intestines. It’s easy. Push hook in through the vent, twist, pull out the attached. Made em outa clothes hanger, about 6 inches long with like a shepherd’s crook at the end. Most knives seem pretty big to me but they do work nicely on geese and ducks. The old...

As a service to the community, I will provide the following service at no charge. I operate an approved Scotch Whisky disposal facility. Ship your scotch to me, and you can be assured of its responsible disposition. High quality gin accepted in the summer months. DM me for shipping details...

The guns discussion got me thinking. For a long time I carried my Ruger Super Blackhawk in a shoulder rig in the field, it was comfortable, handy, and out of the way. There's a lot of you carrying and I presume your on foot with a rod and net and some sort of tackle bag/vest, or afloat but...

What a great example of thread drift. To the OP's question: Good on ya for taking a class and learning some stuff! It was good for me years ago, and I should probably do so again. What pistol to buy? Well, Glock's just smash my broken thumb joint, I can't even get through a single magazine...

Spring Canyon near Grand Coulee is a NPS campground, I've stayed there a couple times and it's nice Up high Marcus is nice. Any of the NPS campgrounds that are open are generally well maintained and feature pretty nice sites. There's a sweet little CG at the northport city park but don't tell...

Civic organizations have been in decline most of my adult life. The 2000 book Bowling Alone by Robert Putnam documented the late 20th century decline in these organizations and associated social connections. Expanding work expectations, later maturing families, and electronic media beginning...

I am continually amazed at the efforts folks put into creating absolutely hideous shit.

I've maxxon tubes on my cataraft. Maxxon stuff is generally made from Chinese PVC where Saturn is (or at least was recently) made from european pvc. Part of the cost savings of a pvc boat is they are glued together rather than stitched or welded. PVC degrades in sunlight, so is inherently a...

Walla Walla seems to check most boxes. Baker City OR too.

Does anyone use them? Does anyone use the wired one on your boat already?

Garrett Lesko might be able to help you place this in an Oregon home...??

I confess I'm a print media junkie. I seek out places where I have no cell service, thus I need some magazines to read or reread. Fly-fishing print media presents some of the best imagery today, maybe because fly fishing locations are so beautiful. So, it's been Fly Fish Journal, the Drake...
