    Question for the permethrin users: Does washing clothes in it affect the clothes in anyway that’s objectionable; ie odor, remove UV protection?

    Wisconsin

    Sounds like a great trip, was that your introduction to Musky and Wisconsin? I’m going to Wisconsin end of July but targeting Smallies on dry flies as my friend and guide says there can be numbers vs Muskies being much harder to entice. Will be fishing the Flambeau and maybe a couple others...

    What Are You Eating?

    Roasting certain vegetables turns them from “meh” to “yeah” for me; Brussel sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower specifically.

    New Fly Rod

    From Farbank website this morning, inflation has kicked in. I bought an 8’ four weight, reel and Rio Gold DT line for $275 from a local shop around 2012-15 iirc.

    SFR Took another hike

    Definitely not typical coloring for a Sac fish, they are usually more heavily spotted and less silvery, as well as bigger 😁. 9K cfs is not ideal conditions, I’ve been told around 4K is ideal and never had much luck after a flow bump so you did well. Egg bite in September- October is good with...

    SFR Cooler advice

    RTIC for me as well. Tip; get some insulation like this to lay inside the cooler on top of everything once packed. BIG help.

    Meadowlake Fish Camp in mid-late September

    You can bring alcohol across in limited quantities, 2 liters of whiskey iirc. Beer shouldn’t be an issue if in limited quantities. Google is your friend in this case. Meals are provided at camp. I was there with previous operators, Francisco and Uli; she was a wonderful cook, hearty meals and...

    Awesome Dogs of PNW

    Good to know, might have to try it. Gracie pulls for the first 5 minutes of her walk as she’s very excited but settles in for the rest. I’ve been using a harness with lead clipped to the front rather than the top and it helps, but at just one year and 70 pounds she’s pretty strong especially...

    OFFICIAL 2026 NFL SEASON DISCUSSION

    JFC all the discussion about some has been; anyone excited about the Hawks draft picks? I think it was a brilliant use of limited opportunities that will pay dividends. Bud Clark and Neal look to be solid additions to the defense. Cautiously optimistic on the running back. Later round picks have...

    wolves...

    I’ve been fortunate to have had 3 encounters/sightings with wolves, 1 in Canada and 2 in Alaska. A pack lived very close to me in Alaska and I never saw any but heard them often. They are pretty unmistakable when sighted, the eyes were almost feline to me. The Canadian wolf we saw was on the...

    Life getting in the way of fishing... sigh

    OK, I’ll play. Retired 12 years ago at 61, no health issues and enough income with no bills to do pretty much what I want within reason. Kept a trailer on a NorCal steelhead river from October- April, friend living nearby was a flyfisher who would call with reports, river conditions, etc. Took...
