If I can’t catch em, at least I can take a nice picture.

Let's never talk about that again...

Nah, it was small water. We were both on bobbers.

@clarkman picked my pocket. Nobody’s fault by my own. I totally blew it. Still, he’s a damn dirty thief. He mad up for it with a excellent lunch though. It was still a pretty darn nice day on the water.

Absolutely down to.

Here's a good page with updates. It was last updated in December. Also, Here's a map of the closures. Finally, here's the forest service FAQ about road closures. Hopefully they'll get everything by Ripplebrook open sooner rather than later.

Oh, and I think 4630 is also closed now.

I find Harriet really enjoyable. More so than Timothy, for me.

The fires closed 57, and access for the past few years has been down skyline around Timothy from 26.

Last I heard NF57 was reopening in 2025, so I wouldn’t hold your breath. Also, those stocking schedules are bit aspirational. For what it’s worth, Google says there’s is still a way to get to Harriet via 224 on other forest roads, but I have never tried it.

Has anyone tried the FTD big game hooks?

Thanks @PhilR!

Sure is. I did a bit of scouting around the other two, and my hopes are not high, unlike the water.

Some marabou tubes. Also, if you have any secret high water bank spots near Portland, holler at me in the DMs. I’m starting to get cabin fever right about now…

Instant karma is pretty satisfying, especially if no one gets hurt.

Some more winter stuff.

Overrated: anadromous Underrated: warm water

Merry Christmas buddy. Let me know when that knee is healed up so we can all go get skunked together!

Working on a box of winter stuff for my 15 year old for Christmas. I still have a bunch more to tie. He’ll be getting his first spey outfit under the tree as well.
