    It initially loads VERY slow. I open another window and check some other sites before going back to this site. It usually takes at least a minute to get going. Kind of annoying, but I've gotten used...

    I would vote against using scotch guard, Thompson's waterseal or any other kind of petroleum-based product. I did this with a few dries several years back, and when the fly hits the water, there is...

    I was up that way maybe 15 years ago. Good Cutt fishing, but no Bulls, and it wasn't from lack of trying. The BC non-resident fishing license back then was about $55 for seven days and then the...
  5. Fishing during the summer (smoke) season.

    As I was planning my annual fishing trip to the Rockies, I was hearing tales of warm water, hoot owl restrictions, big forest fires and tons of smoke. I was deterred a bit at first, but I figured...

    The EC starts in CA and eventually flows into NV. It flows more or less north east and when it gets close to Gardnerville it flows north. The water there would be even warmer than the stretch near...

    Gardnerville is about 20-25 minutes away from the Hangman's Bridge. Plenty of places to park there and easy to walk downstream. The Airport is the Alpine County airport, which is little more than a...

    If you are referring to salmonids, then there does not appear to be much modification to bring back pure species, just the opposite. A book came out a few years ago by Anders Halverson called "An...

    That is my understanding as well. Tigers are a cross between a brown trout and a brook trout and since that doesn't happen naturally, they are indeed sterile. They exist because of "fish hatchery...

    I agree that the Hailey area is much nicer than Twin Falls and it is easy to get there in a (long) day of driving. I have never rented any places to stay up there, only camped, so I don't have any...

    Awesome! Great photos and write up. I've only been to the Winds once and I definitely need to go back. The fishing was OK for brookies and grayling on some east slope lakes, but I've heard some good...

    That is AWESOME! I saw the signs saying that it was a wolf reintroduction area, but I didn't think much about it. I would absolutely LOVE to see one of those wolves in the wild. I got a glimpse of...

    Chasing Paper: A Fish Report

    Most of my fly fishing trips are focused more on a wide variety of salmonids instead of huge numbers or size of the fish. Fortunately, there are several Fish and Wildlife departments in the western...

    The trout are in CA. The info is out there, it does take some research, though. Fair warning: the hike in is REALLY tough and the dues to be paid to get some of these trout are high.

    I enjoy the challenge, that there is so much to learn and every time you hit the water you have to figure out "the mystery" of how to catch fish at that time. Very often, once I've figured it out, I...
