I have been shooting for ever it seems. Starting around 6 or 7 years old. Dad was an LEO so I got the gun safety first, safe storage, safe handling, safe shooting. For fun shooting I like my Ruger Mark II and as I've gotten older I carry a Ruger 1911 in 9mm for self-defense. Remember this "Gun...

Nice fish, pretty rod all bent over like that.

Does anyone know where Crecent bar is? My son and I were fishing for smallies in the bay behind the trailer park. When we started catching NPM in the two or three pound class. I would stick a knife through the back of their head and back bone and put them back in the bay. We caught a couple...

Really nice agate. Some good looking water I think that our problem with not hooking up some fish is the lack of fish in our rivers

You need to send me a map to this spot, then I'll tell ya how it's done

For me as I'm getting older and the last time I was out on the river in an easy access place and the hard time I had keeping from falling down. I'm going to turn to going after the warm water fishes from my boat. Now I have to wrap my mind around going out and about in my boat alone.

If it were me I would be looking for public beaches that are not popular for the public.

Well I guess my secret is out. Some of the hottest fishing I've ever had has been in the fall when the lakes have been drawn down and the cold clear creek water is pouring in. And no I'm not going to name any of those lakes. Another secret I'll give to you is when the river is blown out and...

Good luck finding yer rod. This reminds me of an evening fishing a private lake in Okanogan Co. WA. I had rowed the boat to shore, laid my rod down with the fly still in the water and just as I went to step out, bang the rod jumped into the lake. Just a reminder to never let go of yer rod when...

Ebay ripped me off one time. I won't go back.

both old reels I have are on old bamboo rods hanging on my walls. pawn shops, is where I have found vintage fishing gear. Antique stores, but the prices will be higher.

I wasn't there and I can still find my ass if I use both hands. When I was a teenager I lost my hunting knife, the very next day some miles away from where I lost that knife, I found another hunting knife that was better. Sorry about the side track. Getting side tracked is easy for me these days

I think that Redington has the best selection of waders. For myself and my lady I have found up sizing is better than sizing to fit. One size up will give ya better movement. Also one size up on the wading boot also

Yer gonna be safe from snakes and ticks in November. When I used to fish RFC Oct. to March were some of the best times on the creek. My go to flies were olive scuds in size14, olive mini leach in #12s, and a #10 light gold glo bug.

Thanks for posting pics of some of my favorite spots when I lived in Central WA And as for the warm ditch I miss it. I could go there and catch fat RB's until I couldn't lift my arm, or times where I couldn't buy a bite. During upland bird season, go blasting in the morning and casting in the...

I'm really sorry for the loose of yer cap. You won't get over it, but you have to move on. When I got my new PNW cap I caught my first fly caught steelhead, alright a new lucky fishing hat I said to myself. As it turn out that hat was not so lucky after that. Another short story. I was at one of...

I wore my MT cap in honor. Happy, happy to you

Many years ago when I had permits to dredge in the Wenatchee river I had an experience I would like to share with you all. With a little work with a shovel and pan I discovered a seam of mud in-between the sandstone bed rock, I could see the flacks of gold in the mud. The next weekend I got my...

Good report. I'm an ole prospector, fish and gold go together like PB&J. As I have gotten older, I don't go out prospecting or fishing without my wading staff. What happens to me is when I stop to cast and let my staff hang is when I have gone down. I try to never go deeper than knee deep when...

pretty fish
