CBS Nightly News ran a story about the Klamath dam removals last evening.
It showed them sowing seeds of natural plants in anticipation of recovery.

The state of Maine has had some notable successes with dam removals on rivers
such as the Kennebec and Penobscot. Granted, comparing California/Oregon to
Maine is sorta apples and oranges; still,...
Great thread. One of the interesting "new?" concepts in flies is the tenkara
reverse hackle fly. I'm not a tenkara guy but I've used them on Fishigan's trout
streams with moderate success. So...
Bill,
My parents had a home on Michigan's Lake Charlevoix which fed into
the big lake. A great smallmouth resource and it would get lakers, salmon,
and steelhead from Lake Michigan. Perch and...
PV,
We used to catch quite a few browns trolling in Michigan waters that fed into Lake
Michigan and yes, they were definitely football shaped. The lakers were near the
bottom and the browns were...
What great shots, John.
I feed orioles grape jelly during the spring-summer and decided to keep
going thru the winter for finches, sparrows,etc. Love to watch them.
Recently, on a trek down to...
Bump,
Had heard of them being caught in the Trinity. Why not? I know the Smith has/had a great coastal
cutthroat run. God! Do I miss those great steelhead runs. Wish I had fly fished for...
That was worthy of Oscar mention. So well done.
Glad to see Ed is still around. How's life and what
can you tell us about your dogs?

Bill,
Thanks for the story about Joe's photo op.
I remember sending him a small gift for his
90th that you hosted. He sent me a thank-you
card. What a true gentleman and role model.
Thank...
Bill,
Etched in my mind is that shot of Joe Shirshac wading nearly up to
his armpits when he was nearing 90 years old.
Happy Thanksgiving to all, especially our vets and those in uniform.

As always, John comes through with a great post and photos to document it.
Makes one's day!

Gordon,
Great to hear from you. You must be doing well.
California's Smith River used to have a decent cutthroat
run. A Park employee used to guide during the summer
for them.
Have always...
I've never used Jeff as a guide, but his videos are top notch.
He also helped me with some minor leader problems.
Highly recommend him.

My friend has been using a Hydros in the San Diego surf for nearly a year
and loves it.

I remember Shig's fantastic posts as he was creating his craft. The world, and the forum,
lost a real treasure in Shig.
Best to ya, Scott.

That would make a great surf rod; capable of handling most critters
out there.

Some long time Kiene members will remember the
pay-it-forward activity. I'd like to rejuvenate
that activity.
I'm offering about a dozen steelhead spey
flies. Several Hardwick Hoser tube...

BS,
Good on you! What an inspiring post and message. I always remind
folks that God doesn't detract from your life on Earth the days you
fish.
Looking forward to your next post.

I'm with aaron. As an 80-ish whiskey lover,
