    Anyone wanna go to Christmas island next winter?

    One of the largest bonefish I hooked on Christmas Island (November, 2009) was at the Korean Wreck. The fish shredded the coating on my fly line on a coral head. @Rob Allen - you might pack a spare line or two ....

    What's Catching You Fish?

    Biggest fish of the day. Slick rocks, steep banks, overhanging alders. No ticks, no timber rattlers, bears or cougars.

    What Are You Eating?

    I'm guessing you aren't a fan of okra if "slimy" is a turn off. My wife and I eat natto quite often (love it) - interesting slickness to say the least.

    Rule of Two, not Three

    After all the wind yesterday I wondered if the carp flat would be fishable - the reservoir has been dropping and strong winds can stir up silty sediment clouding visibility. Sure enough, there was some turbidity but man, no clouds, no smoke and (at the start) just a light breeze and bright sun...

    Summer trout games

    @Matt B - first of all, fantastic report and photographs. That last trout pic? Such marvelous coloring. Second: You da man. I don't think my old legs could hike that stream very far although I hear you with your: "It’s hard to stop climbing when the next big step up keeps looking like...
