Yeah, I probably should have made it clearer that the Brown was from a different lake. So many options in the area!

I've been there three times this year, fishing the best it's been for me since 2020. Well, as long as there is some chop on the water. When it's been calm it's been tough. Good luck!

Did a short end of summer workcation from Sunriver last week. Got the family some pool time, and did a little fishing. On Tuesday, worked east coast hours and then dragged the family out to "Tall Bird Meadow" lake for a couple of hours in the afternoon. Pretty good fishing, picked up a half...

The problem with this saltwater fly fishing thing is it's kind of addictive. Three years ago Cabezon had a posting looking for a fill in on a tuna trip. Thought I'd give it a try, never done any salt fly fishing. Didn't have anything for that sort of fishing so used Nick's boat gear. Fast...

This was the hot fly for me. Big thanks to @clarkman who gave me this fly and some others for tuna last year. @Cabezon had a pretty hot fly also.

Saw some pictures of what looked like a big mess of yellowtail caught by an All Rivers boat I assume yesterday. On a trip on Saturday, so pretty interesting. Yellowtail is my favorite fish to smoke. So so good.

And same for me.

I tried 3 different ways to smoke the tuna. All were good, though the tuna did get a bit dry. But achieved the goal of making a bunch of quick healthy snacks. A spicy smoked tuna recipe I got from Ifish was the winner, modified a little based on Matt B.'s post - really good flavor, slightly...

A post on another thread reminded me that I wanted to try smoking some tuna. Anybody have a good recipe to share?

Saw a report of someone getting a couple of blue fins. Think it was out of Ilwaco.

Selling my TFO BVK 10wt for $200 plus shipping. Had some use, but in good condition. Rod bag is from my BVK 5wt, as I seem to have somehow misplaced the 10wt bag.

It's almost like you're dissing on non-gear-competent, barfing seat filler :).

Hey Matt, What knots were you using when building the leaders? Thanks!

Sounds like I need to move to Montana :).

Thanks for the tip on chapstick! Snugging down thick flouro has been a problem for me.

I was told for Mag bay in November the sardines have blue backs. Some pink also. 4 to 6 inches. But have no actual experience. In June on the Cortez side, it was light green to olive backs, just on the top.

I'll definitely drop a report. Unless I don't catch anything.....

Yeah, it's not really an excuse.

The owners of that shop are new. They bought it last year. Maybe they don't realize what they are doing with the detailed reports? Maybe reach out to that David dude or stop by the shop and let them know your concerns? Or post the same message on the westfly reddit, the owners are on that...

@Evan B Evan - thanks for the info! Makes sense that you don't need to pump them up from the depths. Good point on the knots. I suck at knots, and am not looking forward to tying knots with 100lb flouro. Another thing to practice. @Nick Clayton Hey Nick - thank you for the offer, that's...
