    Coastal River Oregon

    Well I've been trying to get this particular river dialed for a few weeks. I've got a spot that's super peaceful with some spectacular water for SRC, small resident Cutts, and even some chinook. I've spent hours poring over historical run information with weather reports and forecasts to try...

    Curious if anyone in the portland area has had gear stolen

    I know a lot of people have had gear stolen, I've seen a few posts about it, but I spotted a questionable garage sale with some absurdly low pricing on some absurdly expensive gear recently. I remember what was there and was curious if anyone on here was looking for their stuff. Let's try to...

    Central Oregon Cascade Lake

    Pretty likely, they're schooling up for spawning season, and the bows were already stalking them everywhere waiting for the eggs.

    Central Oregon Cascade Lake

    No kokanee, but they were pretty beautiful with their spawning colors on. We came across a big ball of them in a redd out in that channel. Pretty cool to see

    Central Oregon Cascade Lake

    We all know which one it was. But it was still a killer day. Took my first guided trip out on the lake last Saturday. Fishing was a bit slower than it historically is on this lake (at least from what people say) but I still connected on 5 of the biggest rainbows I've landed on a fly rod. 5wt...

    A 4th of july weekend outing

    This past weekend I made the roughly two hour drive to a coastal oregon campground that I thought would be a nice, relaxing, and quiet get away for the long weekend. I was mistaken. I had not realized that this was a HUGE campground that was filled with families and rvs as far as the eye could...

    Repackaged goodness

    So on a whim I decided it was time to pick up a float tube so as to really try stillwater more thoroughly (and access some truly legendary trout waters in oregon) I finally landed on a lost creek LC4. Seemed like a good deal at a local sportsman's warehouse and was available for same day...

    Tippet Rings, Droppers

    This might damn near be the funniest looking thing I've ever seen, and I do look in the mirror every morning.

    Tippet Rings, Droppers

    You could try tying the dropper through the eye of your top fly, a lot of times when the dropper is tied to the hook it acts like a rudder and can make the top fly drift unnaturally or act unnaturally in the water due to the force acting on the back of the fly (hook bend) Tying your dropper to...

    Anyone tried rio VersiTip lines?

    A bit of an update, went out and tried both lines out today and they both performed amazingly. The guys at NWFF in portland know their stuff and really set me up well with this. Landed a nice 7" cutthroat on a small creek and hooked some warm water species on a nearby pond (some kind of pan...

    Anyone tried rio VersiTip lines?

    I ended up going a different direction. My gut was telling me that versitip would be much more useful on my 8/9wt setup, instead of my 5wt, and the guys at the fly shop agreed. I put SA MPX on my 5wt reel for a dry fly/nymphing river set up and got a 5wt Rio camolux sub surface on another 5wt...
