    Merrill Lake closure

    I'm wondering when you or anyone has been there last. Come Monday I'll call DNR and see if when the road and campground will reopen.

    NFR Cougars

    While visiting friends in Port Angeles we were given a tour of the Hurricane Ridge area. A big cougar crossed the gravel road in front of us and after going around a curve in crossed again and we watched it run through a clearcut and disappear into the trees. I had them stop so I could get...

    SFR Cool stuff you see while fishing

    I witnessed a bald eagle swim a fish to shore and drag it out. I assumed it must have been a big one. But even crazier was a time on a high cascades lake I watched an eagle take a trout away from an osprey in midair. That osprey made noises I've never heard from an osprey before or...

    They have finally invaded small rivers

    I always thought it a shame that the sign on a lake that says "fly fishing only" means that's the only way you're allowed to fish and not that's the only activity that's allowed there. This impossible dream comes from witnessing lakes, especially in central Oregon, being loved to death by the...

    Decades on the Firehole

    Fished the Firehole back in '94 and landed a couple small trout on bwo dries. That evening in West Yellowstone we had dinner in a restaurant and started out having cocktails in the bar. A fellow was telling us what a great day he had on that same river and we bought him a scotch rocks and...

    Awesome Dogs of PNW

    Thankyou all for your condolences. There is so much more I could have said about the amazing attributes of Harley and what he meant to us but knowing you are all dog lovers I'm sure you are already aware. The squirrels here probably feel a little safer now although they never had reason for...

    Awesome Dogs of PNW

    Sadly had to say our last goodbyes to this little papillon named Harley. He was a great dog and was with us 17+ years. Gonna miss him.

    Intermediate lines

    I wish the memory in my Cortland intermediate line was as bad as mine, but it ain't. At lease if memory servers me right. It helps to stretch them out a bit before going out, especially in cold weather. They still help catch a lot of fish so I put up with the coiling. Years ago I had...

    NFR Humor (No political jokes)

    I helped at derbies locally for several years. It is fun. I would bait the hook with a worm but would pinch off a piece before casting the bobber into the lake . After handing the pole to the boy or girl I would turn to the mom and say hold this. They would just instinctively hold out...

    East Fork Lewis River

    Might notify Salmon Creek Fly Fishers club. I didn't think many boats floated down stream of Daybreak. Where would they get out if not clear down to La Center?

    When life throws you a curve ball

    Glad to hear things went well and hope the early detection makes you cancer free. I waited several months before deciding to get tested and I'm happy to say my mammogram showed a benign lump which is common in "old" men. It was stupid to wait so long but a relief to get that result. I...

    When life throws you a curve ball

    Going in for my exam for the same reason on Friday. Was just passing it off as an old guy thing until had my annual visit. Hope it's something benign but after reading these posts I'm a little worried. Still recovering from fractured hip so don't need more probs. I'm joining in...
