Hitler's U-Boat War vol 1 by Clay Blair Extremely thorough and detailed account of the first half on the Atlantic and Arctic battles

No one knows?

It's been several years since I went hunting pheasant, due to pandemic shutdown. I used to have to pick odd or even numbered weekend days to start hunting at 0800. I don't see that referred to on the WDFW regulations website. Did they eliminate that requirement?

Remember I said take a good look at the Sauer XT100 Classic? When I got mine, in 6.5 Creedmoor, it shot 1/4" groups at 100 yards straight out of the box, with no tweaking or adjustments. That was with Hornady Whitetail ammo

Yakima River is good in those months. Look at the section from 3 Bridges, downstream as far as Thorpe

I got the 5"6" version. It's listed by the manufacturer as "ultralight" and the book I referred to, says to get short rods, like 4"6" to 5"6" for this sort of fishing, to have more precise casting control in tight areas

OK. I just ordered the 5' 6" rod as described in your post Only 36$ If it works out for me, great, and if it's not right for me, I'm not out much money

I got a pair of M7 Volkls Great skis! (except I'm using my Stoecklis more often)

Found an interesting book on ultralight spingear fishing at the library book sale for 50 cents. Interesting book, but it dates from the early 1990s and the gear recommendations are quite out of date. I'm interested in what modern gear is used for this style now. I'm thinking of using this on...

My favorite film about fishing is one called "The Manzanar Fishing Club" It's available from the King County Library system on a DVD. Not sure about any streaming service. It's about guys who were imprisoned in camps during WW2, due to Japanese ancestry. They used to sneak out of the camps...

Oyster Band did some great stuff with June Tabor

I've hiked Barclay Lake, Lighthouse Point, Heybrook Ridge, Trout Lake, and Ollalie and Talapus Lakes so far. Waiting for the snow to melt out to hit the high mountain lakes

I'm on Rose Hill in Kirkland, and I planted my tomatoes today. Warm about 68F. Supposed to be 78F tomorrow. Then colder, but not under 45F, so I think the tomaters are gonna take root

Just picked up my 3 Sun Gold tomatoes at Fred Meyer today. Only tomato I ever grow, for the past 15 years. (Except last year I also tried SunSugar, but I don't plan to repeat that one again.)

If you're still looking for loaded ammo or brass, Midway carries the 7mm WSM

If you're looking at a rifle chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, take a good look at the Sauer XT100 Classic. However, I agree the 6.5 Creedmoor might be bit light for elk sized game. My elk rifle is a Kimber-refurbished Mauser 98, chambered in 280 Ackley Improved. But since that's an obscure...
