So is Lil G the test lake for the supermale Brookie plant?

Like porter2 I have the 389ll. I’ve used the 444 peach WF but the line that has stayed in use is the royalwolff triangle taper You’ll love the rod no matter what line you end up with

Nice trip! Time traveling float plane?

I also currently in need to replace my leaking waders. Can't remember exactly when I got them but its be a long while. They are vison waders which is a Finnish company that I had an acquaintance that was repping. I've looked and many of the brands mentioned. One issue I have is I want a...

My iPhone is water resistant for 30 minutes at something like 6 meters of depth.

I hadn't thought about tethering my phone case to either myself of my packraft/float tube. I had thought about tethering it to a float. Kind of like the ones for boat keys. Here's a link to floating case, which is more what I was thinking about.

Just wondering if anyone uses a floating phone case when fish from a floating device like a float tube. Since the phone has become the camera of choice and dropping overboard would be more of a pain than just replacing a camera. I always have a bit of uneasiness when taking pics while out in...

Another lovely trip to the mountains

The weathers nice and not to hot and the air is still clear (hopefully it will stay that way). I planned to head out on Tuesday, so I looked at the maps and chose a location. Not too long of a hike, a little over two miles minimum with options to press on the a few additional lakes. Out the...

Dave looks like another great trip. I always find you post to be a learning experience as I end up googling whatever classic wet flies you fished do see what they look like.

Looks like you had a great trip. Your only short a coastal cutthroat and a lake trout and you would have caught all the "trout" available in the high lakes. I suppose a grayling could be added to that list as well.

I have 3 of the Graphite II LL rods. 2,3 & 5 wts. My favorite is the 389 LL

Dave, did you use jay hackles on your bumble’s?

Another rod tube option that can potentially hold two rods are the plastic tubes for storing collectable baseball bats.

Looks like a great time. That’s right up my alley and reminds me of a few spots in that general area

Get a theraband flex bar and do Tyler Twist exercises as part of your daily routine. You probably want a few flex bars in different resistance levels. My issue has been that once I’m over a flare up I stop the exercise till the next time. Preventing the next flare would be better...

Glad you guys made it out on this rainy friday. It looks like Mike has the earlier model wilderness lite which is what I have. I assume you have the inflated seat on yours. Do you think you site up that much higher? I really don't like the valves on these. Maybe splice one of these into...

daphnia also are available under the ice in winter. Here are some picks from the web.

Copepods or more specifically daphnia are a small zooplankton that can be major food source for trout. They can move up and down the water column filter feeding on algae. They move in a jerky, jumping swimming motion. They can be prolific forming "clouds" in the water. As I understand it...

Most of my water weight is the 2 liter platypus bladder w/drink tube in my pack. I do frequently bring my water filter for longer hikes for refills. For this short hike I opted for a small secondary bottle. I feel that I drink more when I have a n accessible drink tube than having to pull a...
