I’m still fishing for cutthroat, I haven’t targeted coho yet. But they sure have a thing for swimming out of their way to kill size 8 yellow wooly buggers. That fly may need to be retired as a cutthroat fly at this rate.

Heavier is better IMO. Better hook sets, more backbone when you need it, handles heavier weighted lures. My two favorite spin rods are rated 8-17# and 10-20# respectively. I don’t see a reason to go lighter IMHO

Man yall don’t know want to see my tying scissors 😂 id like to know how many thousands of flies I’ve tied with my Dr Slicks with the bent tips and butterknife blades. Actually thinking about it, all my tying tools are absolutely hammered

My wife got in a nasty collision on our local two lane highway that totaled her SUV when a car pulled off the shoulder into her as she was going 60. Her car braked before she could react and could have something to do with both her and my daughter walking away without a scratch. I also find...

Yellow bugger meets yellow fin. Some very nice sized fish around. It’s been fun.

Another one bites the dust. Orange skittering bugs have been having a real hard time making it safely across the river lately but they keep trying.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe that dish pictured above is called the Captain’s Splatter.

Has anyone ever seen Scadden, Edge and Pro loks in the same room before? LOLOLOL

I’ve seen resi rainbows like that but if that’s all coastal cutt that’s incredible.

That’s an absolute unit right there. That’s the type of slab I’d be making a replica mount of for the fireplace 😂

Why are we talking about fighting steelhead with spey rods? Whether it’s a 10’ 3wt or a 16’ 10wt neither are hooking any fish. Resource protected.

Screw the fish imagine how many rods, reels and Hemostats you’ll find

Tail outs could be a thread of their own. Overlooked? Misunderstood? Hard to read? Probably a little of each. Yet big fish seem to like them.

Maybe tie a whole pack of flashabou 36” up the leader to simulate the flasher? The trusty 6wt might not cut it however.

A flashy bead head rolled muddler found a dandy.

Opportunity may be limited but it isn’t non existent unless you know something I do not.

Before I tie on a reverse spider I loop the line through the eye and pinch it in my hand and dunk the fly under water for a few seconds and drag it around, with the hackle wet and slicked back it’s easier to finish the knot without capturing any hackle accidentally. I prefer a non slip mono loop...

Top left definitely puts the hurt on em on your local waters Shad.

Beads rule. There are few things more gratifying then draining bobbers with a stupid little bead at the same rate as the guys who have pink splotched waders and triple secret roe cures they swear by. Good roe is pretty badass stuff I admire the dedication to the craft, but I’m not making it. I’m...

Depends on the watershed, SRC timing is unique to each basin. There are SRC to be found for sure in the larger PS rivers right now. More then anything the recent rain and bump in flows worked its magic by dropping water temps significantly which I’m sure made for happy fish. Cutthroat should be...
