I just could not resist to comment about using the internet to drive the crowds towards one specific river or another.
Before the internet a few years ago, steelheaders had to put in their time and...

So now I have attached the running line to the backing (with a nail knot), and with the built in loop on the running line, loop to loop connected my skagit line.
The end of the skagit line also has...

A question from a novus spey guy to the experts out there on the board:
Best knot to attach a spey running line to backing?
Thanks in advance

Your post was just perfectly timed for me, as I was recently reading about Mow tips.
I do not know their uses, and are they much different than the regular Rio sink tips that I loop to loop to my...

This season has been challenging for all, or they are not being honest.
One explanation is that the early winter type storm that dropped 9" or rain in October, allowed the fish to rocket up river...

I recently went through the same decision process.
I fish mainly the Klamath/Trinity system for steelhead almost all year long.
I was lurking on spey sights and on this board's spey topics...

I talked with Mike K from the Eureka fly shop today. He agreed that the temps went way up, and explained that it was probably from a recent water release from Iron Gate that caused the temperature...

I would like to inform and caution this great board that the Klamath River is very warm.
Water Temps yesterday in Orleans were 77 degrees, above Blue Creek on the lower K was 73 degrees, and below...

I bought a pair of their high end waders last year through Sierra Designs.
Initially they felt great, but after 5 fishing days, they had 2 micro leaks, and I sent them back.

I have persuaded my non-fishing wife that we should take a 3 week road trip in mid- May for our 30th anniversary.
We are planning to take our truck with camping gear, our dog, and leave Humboldt...

Are you flying in from Houston Texas to have a steak in Redding????

Since the Trinity is high and colored, I am planning a trip to the Smith River in the next few days.
I have been reading on the gear/bait blogs that the fishing for steelhead has been good.
I have...

I just walked up from the river and the wind was blowing at 40-50 mph. Trees are cracking and creaking and the electricity just went out as I arrived home.
Good thing I have a generator because...

Craig is a great guide and very accomodating. He is a good teacher/instructor, calm, and has a great sense of humor.
I would recommend him without reservations! (No pun intended)

Go to the upper Klamath.
If the weather and winter storms cooperate, the fishing can be great.
Get in touch with Craig at Shasta Trout and he will clue you in.

I believe that the Native Americans do have a right to take fish from the river.
However, I also believe that the methods used by Tribal members in the past, were supposed to be used so that some...

I have lived in the Trinity River valley for over 25 years.
The Hoopa Tribal Police or Fisheries departments for the Tribes, will not arrest friends or family members who are netting illegally. ...

I recently became aware that some members of the Hoopa Tribe are selling thousands of fish that are beeing gill netted at the entrance to the Hoopa valley. Hence, the counts of salmon and steelhead...

I am going on my yearly float trip from Pecwan to the Blakes next weekend with my 2 buddies.
Usually, we have the jet "mailboat" drop our wives off at our campsite in the middle somewhere. However,...

I was at the same spot where the shootout occurred in 2006, but the day before.
I had heard that some bad meth dudes were steeling Toyota trucks, and since I have a Toyota Tacoma, I did not venture...

When I was in Cabo Pulmo in May, we got into the YFT's every day. The schools of 30-70 # fish had just arrived. I had never caught a big tuna on a cast fly.
My buddies were fishing with live bait,...
