    Hi, Trying to find any reports, videos, even pictures of someone with a WM that is using the motor mount successfully. My WM raft has the anchor mount and I'm ordering some other items from BSI so wondering if I should toss in the motor mount to leverage the shipping or not. Only use case I...

    Anyone have a Tibor Light Tail Water CL or Galvan Brookie 4/5 they are wanting to part with. Thanks

    Anyone used a set up from FishFinderMount.com on a Water Master or Water Strider kick raft? Thanks. Cheers, Bryan Portland, OR

    The Montana snow map in another thread (@Swimmy) prompted me to look around. Here is what I found for early March: Pretty clear and steep gradient on a diagonal line between high snowfall in Montana, normal in Washington, and low in Oregon and California. Way down in New Mexico there is a...

    Fished MA !! from the shore and from the kayak today, the shore started out slow so put the kayak in and paddled till a troll found a coho. Anchored up and worked that area some more. Coho and cutts were hanging in the verge between the muddy water hugging the shore and the clear water some 4-10...

    @daveontheline and I were out on a South Sound Inlet today; fantastic fishing. 5 cutts, 2 coho? Resident Coho are starting to get fat. Additionally, that new airflo beach full clear intermediate line is dope. The stuff slings and is very supple in the cold. Anyway, I had just tied on a new...

    Any one see this, I hope it burns to the ground. There is no need for even bigger deep sea raping machin. https://www.adn.com/business-economy/2018/02/16/alaska-fishing-interests-join-tussle-in-congress-over-huge-new-trawler-that-ran-afoul-of-federal-law/

    I've been tying a lot of tube flies for steelhead lately. Some of them, by virtue of their construction will fish stable (by stable I mean they don't rotate around the axis of the tippet like a propeller in the water). So, I don't worry about it if I'm tying on a big top fin (rabbit strip...

    I am currently looking for a small water three weight set up. I've fished a Sage Circa in a 7'9" 4 weight and found it a little slow for my taste and would be frustrated when there was a decent amount of wind or when I needed to carry a dry dropper combo 35-45 feet. I loved it within 30 feet in...

    Haven't fished this river system so the current flow readings don't mean much, is it fishable from the bank at it's current state? Thank you and tight lines, Tim

    Sounds unlikely to advance, but worth anglers being aware of due to the potential for closing county roadside water access points in Washington. Hat tip to American Whitewater for being on this: https://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/Article/view/articleid/33941/ "House Bill 2521 and...

    ok guys, those of you with a whitewater pram what is the over all length and bottom width? also do you wish it was wider or narrower, longer or shorter? I ask because I am getting a drawing ready to build a 10 or 11 ft whitewater pram. I'm working on restoring a 15'x48'' wood drift boat now, I...

    I've been enjoying tying some larger format flatwings for stripers, mahi, yellowtail, jacks, etc. With the crap weather here/coming, maybe some of you are planning on heading to Mex or other similarly restorative snow-bird locales. If you are, and plan to fish while you're there, maybe this...

    This rule was intended to overcome the long tradition of mining companies declaring bankruptcy once the mine is exhausted (and then immediately reincorporating under a new name), thereby sticking taxpayers with the cleanup bill. I understand why the mining companies don't want to hold the...

    Seriously though, I was pondering this, as I imagine many before me have as well. What would be a proper dressing for a winter cloudy water fly. - Flash? - Colour? Darker or lighter? - Rattles? What aspect do SRC hunt via sound? - Scent ( If it enhances the experience...what does it matter to...

    Hello everyone, I don't fish a lot of stillwater but I'm looking at spending more time doing it. I have read Stillwater Strategies, but out of curiosity I would like to hear what some other individuals' go to set-up would be for a new stillwater lake. We all have ways of fishing that we have...

    A few days ago the top water sea-run cutthroat fishing was superb during an ebb tide with a hookup ratio around 50%. Eight fish were landed using a top water tube Delia's squid pattern. Below is a picture of the largest sea-run cutthroat(18 to 19 inches) which was landed. The other fish...

    I crossed some bridges yesterday on my way to a Mason County lake. It was high tide, so the conditions of the tidal creeks and lower Chehalis River were indiscernible. It was sunny and hot, and there were a bunch of trollers on the Chehalis. I could see their bored facial expresions at 40mph...
