I have had a very nice offer or is that a take. Actually a truly great outcome as the offer is from someone I’d love to fish with as I suspect we have a lot in common and a great opps for sure. Tales of daring do in Elliot bay to come in Aug/Sept…to be followed with lone lake escapades in the...

I can open a bottle of beer with my eye brow….hint open it first earlier. As a kid I used it to trawl alpha idiots at parties who’d then try the same to predictable effect…. ‘I’m macho man…’ as the late great Richard Prior would say. Dave

I’ve never fished for pinks from a boat in the salt and would love to do so. If anyone has a spot one day I’d love to join you. Im in N Seattle but can travel as needed. I’m fairly proficient at casting/fishing, have all necessary gear and flies, will pay my share of gas and bring sandwiches and...

Some shrimp in shallot and garlic with lots of butter and a healthy splash of pastis to burn off. Went with basmati rice and salad. So good and simple to make. Dave

Good deal on a great boat. Loved mine. Dave

I love the sparseness of that, a lot a damsel nymphs are ways over dressed imo. Did you try a dry? With that size of a hatch, a dry mating damsel should work too. Anyway, awesome Dave

We put 2 dead lab mice in the chair of my bosses wife because she was a pita...It took about 2 weeks for them to figure to out :-) By the time they had the HVAC engineers looking for dead stuff in the vents out we were scared into keeping our mouths shut. She thought they'd made a nest while...

I’m with mullet, they’re much thicker at the head, almost squared so a mullet. Mullet are dark on top but when they roll when feeding are bright silver. All said and done both take flies and are apparently a blast to catch. Cool nonetheless. My 2 cents, Dave

Haven’t posted ties for a while as thought my phone camera was crap, user error as always. Having a last hurrah for the summer on a now pretty weedy lake and so lobbing a floating olive leach on a type 7 into the weeds seems like an option. I forget who on here has been noting this but a...

Amazon sell electric ones that zap 'em. Treefrog on here has some. They work

Grilled and marinated lamb chops cut out from a rack. Side of asparagus and salad with blue cheese crumbles and croutons. I loved this time of yr for such good eats. Dave

Indian hen capes are cheap and good for 6 and up. Dave

I know, I’ve heard great things.but I have a cheesesteak every quarter… As luck would have it, my missus got one and doesn’t like it. I’ll have it tomorrow and will give a report . I have a feeling it will be a great brunch even though not at its best. The other nice bit about Chucks is there’s...

I ate it too fast for a pic. For any of you in N Seattle, Chuck’s hopshop on 85th and 8th has a food truck called Tat’s on Sats. Their Phillie cheesesteaks are quite righteous, I have mine wit wiz. I inhaled it. They apparently have great pastrami too, but I can’t get past the cheesesteak. Dave

He’s seen my ham fisted tying efforts 😀

I turned 60 today and got a lovely surprise gift from a fishing buddie. Size 32, crazy. I put a dime by it for scale…minuscule. Dave
