I'm cheap and tried them all including a spruce limb that I found floating down the Gallatin River. I now use it as a walking stick. My daughter bought me a Simms staff two years ago. The Simms...
Three flies I would not be without in the Lamar Valley in August - A Tan Chaos Hopper, a Brown Foam Ant and a #14 Olive Sparkle Dun. On a good day, you will hook 100 trout.
I use Beartooth's Shocker Butts for steelhead fishing. Got lazy once and used that steelhead leader with the Shocker Butt for spring creek trout fishing. That was three years ago. I rarely fish...
I bought one for Katie last year. George D said that they don't ride up. I suspect that if you don't put 6 cans of sardines and 3 cans of beer in the back you will be alright. Why don't you wear...
I have one in mostly like new condition (I punched holes in the backpack web handle strap to hold a net magnet. Used it a couple of times in Yellowstone and the wife used it several more times. She's...
Looks like a lot of work when a ball of muskrat fur and a tuff of snowshoe hare is all that is needed.

The BRF Sparkle Dun has been my steady dry fly for many years. I have caught more fish on this fly than any other, well except for a certain beadhead contraption that I stole from lastchance! Tied...
Yellowstone Expeditions B&B just south of Livingston or Chico Hot Springs in Pray are good places to stay. Long Outfitting, Livingston. Matthew Long is simply the very best guide service floating...
Best guide on the Yellowstone is Matthew Long, Long Outfitting in Livingston. He knows the river, knows the fish and treats his clients to an incredible best shore lunch, not just soggy sandwiches...
My annual hook order always comes with a few surprises. This year it was the size of their #7076 1XL hooks. They were a tad smaller in size than those purchased last year. I now have size 13, 15...
Look not further LastChance...L.L. Bean's Rapid River Vest-Pack for a mere $99. I suspect you noticed as I wandered all over the Lamar and Paradise Valleys last year with mine loaded down with 70...
Lastchance will be my sidekick on this trip. He's rather geographically challenged but other than that he is almost tolerable to fish with. Don't fluster him, there's plenty of water to share in...
There's good reason Lastchance is a bit scared. You see, he will be fishing YNP with me this August. I have had numerous close encounters with griz on Pebble, Soda Butte, Slough and Fan Creeks. ...
Soy un Catalan! Mi abuelo era de Barcelona. Acabo de ayudar recientemente al equipo espanol de la juventud en el campeonato del mundo en State College, PA.
Usted tiene un talento increible!
Seems like the Ol'Coot wants to fish there too after a soak in Chico drinking a Moose Drool!
4" - 5" bunny streamers.
I'll be there, too. I don't need no stinkin' badge. Just look for the guy selling the book "A Caddis and a Beadhead".
Believe me Jack, I wouldn't even think about travelin to TN to catch trout. I can catch more than I deserve right here in Montana with a :shock: Gooseberry.
I suppose a trip to Cabelas would be fine if you prefer to buy overpriced goods from China.
Never saw a need to fish weighted nymphs since I started fishin the :shock: Gooseberry. You should also have no need. :lol:
I'll trade you half of a wax toilet ring for some of that thread from the needle shop. Trout can't smell the wax from a toilet ring, well at least before it is put into use.
There are a couple of expert anglers in central PA that use a fly that they call the Gooseberry. I've heard that it is more effective than any light sulphur nymph pattern. I also heard that they...
