And I'll show you a messy house!
I heavily rely on pheasant tail nymphs for my go to fly. leave off the wings sometimes for better success on certain days , other days it pays to leave them on. You can de wing them and jig them as...
Hi Betty , long time no see. hee hee

I use a sinking tip fly line in streams . When trolling in lakes which I do a lot I use sinking fly line. I have no idea if my sinking lines contain lead or not .
Great shots Jack.
In my opinion snow should be banished to Mountain tops , Christmas Cards and the occasional Sno cone.
If you really wanted snow you could drive to the Mountain tops (ski hills )...
Nice article I enjoyed It, but what Is YNP?
My best guesses are:
Young not pretty
You never practice
Your not perfect
Your next president
Yodel near people
Yahoo nice putt
You don't need to have a long rod with a short line and tippet to Czech nymph. I use my regular 9ft rod with a full fly line and 50 yards of backing on it. You just pretend its rigged for Czech...
Joe Yup still got it.

Z yep don't want em all shot up now do we?
Merry Christmas everyone.
Larry bout 2 inches...
I have huge success in high country lakes and even in the big low valley Okanagan Lake with believe it or don't a #12-#14 pheasant tail nymph. I caught a 14lb4oz Rainbow out near the middle (a mile...
Hi Rick I have been off faol for about 5 years and due to poor eyesight can no longer tie flies . However in Dennys name I will donate the about $500 worth of fly tying equipment including about a...
Hi everyone Just when you thought I was gone forever Here I am back amongst you.
The very first thing I read upon my return to the forum was the passing of My friend Denny Conranch. I will miss...
All those folks that say to you "don't retire you will hate it" are those folks who are WRONG! Probably because they are no where near retirement themselves. I LOVE IT.
Except now I don't have as...
I always found that the Gatti rod that Jim Castwell took to the fish-ins to be a great rod in my hand. I have a Sage that I love but it just doesn't feel as right as that Gatti did.
I only ever felt...
Rodger also sent me stuff and a wonderful book. I am so saddened by this, I will miss Rodger a lot. We were good internet friends.
Love from one Roger to another Rodger, go in peace my friend.

At the Idaho fish-in I guess I forgot that I still had a 1/2 full glass of red wine which I left on the roof of my car when I turned in. Next morning right at dawn I headed out for my favorite spot...
Best advice I can give to a novice ( gnubee ) tier is " Don't Crowd the Head " everything else will just fall into place.
Cary Moran (Linemender) and I were fishing H Lake for Gills at the CWFI near Ephrata when we pulled up stakes to drive about a mile to Stan Coffin Lake. As I began to break down my rod Cary said Hold...
Um.......Steve We don't normally fish any lakes or streams at the CWFI that have Crappie. Unless you mean the giggle fish at Stan Coffin which would gulp down those flies of Joe's by the ton.
The...
We had to leave our home and most of our stuff behind in 1995. Its not very much fun, luckily the fire was contained in time so our home was ok. My Heart goes out to all the people affected by the...
Burbot and lake whitefish from deep cold water. The Burbot up here feed on Kokanee and are awesome eating. I also love cold water Kokanee. Halibut that is fresh and hasn't sat in the fridge overnight...
That sounds like a great lake for using a depth sounder to map the bottom. a Journal is also a good idea. I take along a couple of marker bouys with about 40 feet or so of line on them. When you get...
I go in thru the bulletin board also.
I notice that most people are in chat after 5pm up untill around 8 or 9pm Pacific time. Anytime other than that there is almost always no-one on there. (...
I found the same thing as Joe. Go in thru the bulletin board and everything is A-OK.
Thanks Rocket.
I Gnu that!
