I'm pretty sure that's a Seguar knot. Strong and straight, but even bulkier than a triple surgeons.

I'm pretty sure that's a Seguar knot. Strong and straight, but even bulkier than a triple surgeons.
Some in this discussion seem to feel that DOUBLE and TRIPLE surgeons are comparable. I have done extensive experimenting on my porch, with a beer, breaking leader in my hands to determine if TRIPLE...
198A is an terrible idea, and I told the State so. This part of the Tuolumne has always been open year round, but most of it it used to be only 2 fish UNDER 12" could be killed, only in summer. What...
Thanks for all the input. Bottom line is that our fish and the habitat that support them is precious. I hear you, Bill, things can be discouraging, but I'm trying to stay positive and do what I can:...
I'm interested in what other folks do in this situation: I have run into poachers in remote places (usually bait fishers and fish killers where it's barbless, artificial, C&R only), and I've got no...
Thanks for the info!
Further down the peninsula are some small streams you can wade across and still catch salmon, steelhead, and sea-run dollies. Check out the Anchor River and Deep Creek.

My advice would be that you find someone to cover me at my office and give the trip to me. I really deserve it.
Additional portions of the Mokelumne are set to be declared wild and scenic. There are also opponents who want to expand Pardee and drown more of the Moke. Send your comments to the address or email...
The feeling that I've done my best for the river, that I've written the letters to FERC and the Water Board and attended the meetings and stood and spoken for leaving a little more for in the river....
Thanks. I have a lot to think about.
Thanks for all the input!
Another question: If you were taking a 4 day weekend soon for steelhead Rogue, Klamath, Trinity, or some other choice?
Thanks Aron! I will check out the map. Know any good guides working that stretch?
Turlock Irrigation District and Modesto Irrigation District are due to relicense the Don Pedro and LaGrange dams on the Tuolumne River.
Below these dams, the flow is reduced to about 20% of...
I might get to fish the Klamath near Hornbrook soon. It seems like a boat is highly recommended. Is there much I can do with walk and wade? Any fishing advice? What about a good guide, if I decide to...
I think the nature of these predators is to fill a niche and NOT wipe out their food source: If otters eat more, there will be less for pikeminnows, stripers, and osprey to eat. Also the otters will...
The Smolt migrate out on those spring flows. The bigger and colder they are, the quicker they get out, and the more likely they are to elude predators and survive. I’ve seen amazing charts on the...
Steve Walser. Really knows his stuff and the Rogue. http://www.oregonflyfish.com/our_guides.html
I did this on the Rogue, with two and three flies, because it's required, and I wound up catching most of my steelhead on that giant Otis Bug that I though was just a sinker. I like this method...
In that range I'd look at the Lifetime Tamarack, available at Big 5. I bought one of those Walmart ones and found it horribly tippy and returned it and got the Tamarack. MUCH more stable. The rod...

Thanks Steelies. This is NOT about WaterFix!! This is a plan to increase the flows in these lower rivers up to 40% of pre-dam flows. this would nearly double the 21% on the Tuolumne and increase the...
I grew up on the Feather and it's special to me like the American is to Bill.
Be ready to stand up. The irrigation districts and the politicians who support them are always looking for more...
