In my opinion, was a good movie but it can't compare with the book.

I've fished it maybe 4 or 5 times. I caught two, one one a nymph above the wier and one on a soft hackle a little further upstream. I've found the access rather difficult though for this 70+ year...

I use the Simms Hardbite Studs and haven't had any problem with them coming loose or falling out.

It seems to work quite well. I'm lazy and just twist the CDC around the hook like a regular partridge soft hackle. One to two turns depending on how dense the barbules are.

I was at Yellow Creek in late June 2019. I caught a couple of small browns in the meadow right off the main road. At that time, they were just getting ready to open up the campground for use. It...

Thanks, Ralph. West End Beach looks like a good place for us to go.

I am going to be spending next Monday through Thursday in the Truckee area at Prosser Family Campground. I just found out that my daughter-in-law and grandsons (15 and 9) are going to be there at...

I got this in an email from Recreation.gov yesterday: "For your safety and until further notice, Manzanita Lake is closed to swimming, wading, and use of soft-sided flotation devices due to river...

Thanks for the input, Lance. I was going to combine the Hex hatch with a family vacation that included kids, grandkids and dogs. Too many moving parts to chance that we wouldn't get a proper...

Almanor South is a Forest Service campground. I also have a reservation at another Forest Service campground, Prosser Family, which at this time is still active. Go figure.

I heard from Recreation.gov yesterday saying that they have closed the Almanor South Campground through September 10th. My reservation fee was totally refunded. This is effectively cancels my annual...

I was thinking of getting a pair of either the Simms Flyweight or the Orvis Ultralight boots. I was wondering if you were able to wear the Simms boots with your stocking foot waders?

I was up there last September and, while I didn't see a lot of them, people were using pontoon boats.

Thanks for all your hard work. My mornings have been a little empty w/o this forum.

Glad to hear that you'll still be contributing to the board. I love seeing your flies and also enjoy reading your blog. Enjoy Oregon.

I too will miss this forum. I check it every day with my morning coffee. Please reconsider your decision. Perhaps even charge a nominal fee to participate. I WON'T be seeing you on Facebook.

i put my tippet spools in one of the larger outside pockets in my vest. The spools are protected and never tangle.

I am going to be in Bridgeport next week and was thinking of taking a day trip up to Yosemite to fish the Tuolumne Meadows area. Has anyone been up there recently who could give me an idea of...

If you have a float tube, White Pines Lake in Arnold has trout in it. I think there is still a fly shop in Arnold called The Trout Spot It's on Hwy 4 on the right as you enter town. The owner is a...

I love tying flies in anticipation for a trip. However long the trip is, it extends it last that much longer. I'm going to Hat Creek next week and have been tying up flies for the past week. A one...

Get in touch with the Ashland Fly Shop. They are dialed in on that section of the river.

I sent you a PM.
