I’m working on an email. Just trying to find the right tone so they’ll actually listen.

Agree with @mcswny on all of this. It can feel a bit like gate keeping, but I think you have that right if you put in the work to explore those blue lines on your own. These are small creeks, and simply can’t handle the potential amount of people and pressure being led to them.

I have an Orvis Guide Sling, and it's pretty comfortable with a diagonal net slot. It works great with a long handled net (I have a Fishpond Nomad mid-length). Not sure it would do so well with a short handled net.

A couple size 12 hippie stompers.

I have a lot of success with boobies tied with FNF Jelly Fritz in "Hulk" with white foam eyes. Tequila works pretty consistently as well. I tied a few more "natural" color patterns, like olive with black eyes, but haven't had a chance to fish them yet.

I think that works for me.

I’m sure you’ll be back there again soon, with or without me…

I fish them pretty similar to @Jonnytutu. I use a type 5 sink line with pretty fast, long-ish strips with some good pauses (most of the time). I usually fish them around 15-20ft.

After my outing with @mcswny a couple of days ago where a hog (for this particular system) broke me off, and then where I ended up going for an unplanned swim, I needed a bit of redemption. The boy and I loaded up our 3wts and took the relatively short drive back to this particular creek...

Just a little restock of some GRHE.

Nah, more like this I think

Hell of a day. Can’t wait to do it again next week. This little guy was definitely worth the swim.

I had a pretty bad case of plantar fasciitis, and had to put insoles in all of my shoes, including my wading boots. I use various Superfeet insoles in my street shoes, but found these Powerstep insoles work great in my wading boots. I've had them in for a year or more, and I have no complaints.

Looks like it sold already. I hope one of y'all got it.

Seems like a pretty sold deal. If I was in the market, I probably would have snatched this up. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/828885839165543/

The Tacky boxes are great. If you want to save a few bucks, the Lost Creek Silicon Slim Fly Box at Sportsmans is pretty decent (and I'm sure this box is sold under a bunch of other generic brands).

Just some simple bass stuff.

Rereading the Song of Ice and Fire books. I finished A Game of Thrones again last week, and moved on to A Clash of Kings this week. I think I’ve lost all hope that Winds of Winter or Dream of Spring will come out before Martin dies.

@clarkman was able to crank out four flies tonight, while I could only manage one changer…

I don't have an answer here, but I finally decided to get a Washington license this year, and Merrill was on my list to check out. Bummed if this is the case.
