Darian,

You mentioned my buddy Jim May and I just got a call from him in Cancun. Yesterday (Monday) was his first fishing day there and he landed a nice tarpon and two permit.
...

Kate, That's a striper killer if there ever was one. Beautiful tie. I tie one that is similar that I call a "Full Dressed Clouser".
The rivers around here are full of striped bass now. If you...

If you're getting ready for Baja or thinking of Tarpon in the keys I've got the perfect rod for you, and, I just lowered the price to $200.00

This is brand new rod that has never been cast and...

If the gate is open Hammonton is the only access. The north side is all private and posted.
If you've been there before, good luck picking the right road that takes you there.
Lots of water going...

It's MAY already and you should be thinking of Tarpon, or Dorado down in Loreto and I've got several rods perfect for either.

First off is a brand NEW never even cast TFO Axiom IIx 12 wt, with...

Hey ICE,

Head over to Paradise Beach below Sac State late or at night. I went there in the sixties and almost went to Viet Nam because the fishing was so good.

Don't fish the riffles...

My favorite rod down there is my R.L. Winston XTR 10wt. Dorados and Roosters alike are perfect with this.
To go along with this rod I have two reels, a Tibor Riptide or a Redington Brakewater...

Yesterday I got out on the river to go chase some stripers and was surprized to see the water flowing so high. Both rivers, the Feather and the Yuba were running over 6000 CFS.
When I moved over...

Well Don, that's kind of sad to hear. Beautiful place kind of going downhill from all the pressure of getting back after the COVID thing.
For those of us that have been there before, maybe numerous...

Hey Bill,

I just came across a Youtube video as to How to filet a Pompano and thought of you. Looks really different as you cut the head off first. Don't loose any meant and then do a regular...

If you're like me I like Saturday morning fishing shows on TV and starting today there's another new coming at 3:00 on the Outdoor Channel called Fly Fusion. There is, or was a fly fishing magazine...

I went through Davis the other day on #113 and saw turkeys everywhere as I headed north. Severeal dead ones in the road too.
...

What a great sporting fish this is. They're spread throughout the warm tropics of both the Pacific, the Atlantic, and the Caribbean.
We see and read and watch all the videos about wading the flats...

Steven,

My brother Frank lives close to you on the north side of Dunsmuir on Prospect Ave. He fishes the river almost daily and has been bugging me about coming up to try Lake Syskiyou. Now...

I went over it several times this past week and it looked real good color wise. Looking at it from the bridge on Hwy.70 it was green around the motorcycle track. Wednesday (2/28) they started to...

I've had enough of this winter already. I want to get outside and do something fun. Yes, the cold hurts the joints so I stay inside and watch the tube. Damn!

Anybody have a trip going to the...

I can't find the picture right now but I caught one right at the bridge next to the Moose Lodge in Lewiston that was as chrome as a dime. There were only a few black spots and several of the red...

That's a great rod, especially for the price. I already have several 8wt. or I'd jump on this.
There's been a lot of chatter lately about casting style and distance and lines and how everyone is a...

Last year, I booked Andy from Kiene's (now FFS) for my grandson who was 12 at the time. We did an afternoon shad trip and had a ball. Andy is the most personable guy with kids, and fishing shad was...

Those are definitely Russian River specials. I used to fish Cassini Ranch and Austin Creek frequently when we lived over that way.
Those Comets would be my first go-to fly if I was over there...

John,

That would be a perfect size for baking whole. I'd bring one home like that and my mom would tell me to go scale it, leave it whole but cut the head off. She'd take it then and rub olive...

That post below about Edwolt's got me to thinking about those sardines. I think we all started out fishing bait, probably worms, or sardines, or something like that.

My dad built us a bait box...

Bill,

Was that Edwolt's Rod & Reel Repair right next to the old roller skating rink? My dad and I spent a lot of time there too but it seems we were always stopping for sardines. That and...

This morning early I was listening to the Bob Simms Outdoor Show. KFBK #1530 from 5am-8am. After several of the fishing reports and duck hunting stories he got ahold of Andy Guibord from Kiene's...

Go down to the Photography section and take a look at John's post and pictures. This ought to get you going.
