Or just carpool up with DO - he's a Steelheadin' stud now and will surely get you into fish. ;) Sucks for you Chehalis trib folks, the planned agreement between WDFW and the Tribes did not go well. Happy to give you a boat ride in March if you're still looking to get out on the Skagit. I'm...

Hey ColinShots, were you swinging or nymphing? If swinging and he picks your pocket with a boober rig it doesn't really count. ;) Nice fish Clarkman - good to see there are some ghosts around for the Oregon crew. Are these broodstock fish?

Thanks for the heads up Stacy - I'll be there!

After this recent tour de force I figured he'd steal your login and start booking trips in Forks. DO = Zero to Hero! ;)

Hell, catching a winter hatch on the swing is harder than a wild fish so DO should get xtra credit. Or a round at Sahalee :whistle:

I have that same boat. Moves around good with a 6 or 9.8hp outboard, also does well with a 55lb thrust electric for lakes that don't allow outboards (or have a speed limit). Mine is stable enough to stand in with the inflatable floor and so far the quality has been good = no leaks or other...

Clocks may have stopped and I'm sure I felt the earth shake beneath me. This is the kinda moment that marks the end an era. Evan, I think Bobo needs a new 'face'. 😁

No, his initials are MM.

You got that right re hood mounts! Remember when a dumbass friend was on the pro staff for one of those hood mounted rod racks. It was suction and I told him I didn't think it was a good idea putting it on my truck with the sloping hood but he insisted and I gave in. Just before the Cherry...

I don't think I ever ran into a SpeyBro on the Thompson. Everything we did up there was practical and posers were quickly weeded out. I remember leaving the back window down on my old Isuzu Rodeo and the dude in the passengers seat always had a couple reels in his lap as we traveled from run...

And the longer the better . . . since we're exposing our fully rigged rods to the public, gotta make sure they're above average as well. 15' minimum! ;)

True dat . . . same for a lot of WA counties. And I'm OK with that - the 'known' Crappie haunts in my neighborhood have far less fish dying of old age than those not on the WDFW list. ;) And there are other ways to determine if there are Crappie in one of your local lakes. Check out other...

Nothing wrong with the Redingtons as pure wader pants. I was looking for a lined, lightweight, and water resistant pant with doubled as wader pants. Apples and Oranges ;)

Challenging times Rob, but glad to hear that your wife is OK and it sounds you got support you needed and met some good people in the process of recovery. And welcome back to WA. Are you back to the Gorge? Somebody better warn the fishies. ;)

Good observation Wayne - the side zipper is plastic and I hadn't thought much about the possibility it might put extra wear on the waders. I'll have to keep an eye on the waders to see if it has an effect. I'm not really that concerned about my appearance, but what I don't like about the...

I'm always looking for good deals on pants that work well in winter under breathable waders. Want to be able to walk into Forks Thriftway to buy supplies and not look like I'm wearing fleece pajama bottoms, then pull up to the Hoh or Bogie and don the waders without having to strip to my undies...

Now we wait for approval from the Feds. Tic Toc ------ - hope they get to it before March. o_O

Or someone familiar with the river float with him while he tests out the river on his kayak. If there were any issues he'd have a seat and a raft to tether the kayak to.

Agree with Salmo_G - learned to fry potatos and onions from and native guide up in Ontario when dad and I were enjoying shorelunch with fresh fried Walleye on an island on Eagle Lake in Ontario. Canned white potatos and sliced onions. Fry like crazy until the onions are carmelized, add eggs...
