If you have been reading the reports or having other anglers telling you what is the hot ticket this year,  every year for that matter, you know by now that bottom bouncers coupled with crawler harnesses are the winning ticket.  Don’t have any?  You went to big stores and were shocked by the prices?  […]

In what amounts to a blatant commercial plug for a friend, I’m passing along an idea for a Father’s Day fly fishing getaway: why not rent a comfortable little house in Dunsmuir, enjoy the restaurants, and fish your damned brains out?

The house is comfy and yes — he’s even got a special Father’s […]

Original Post:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TroutUndergroundFlyFishBlog/~3/294308672/
Singlebarbed launched an excellent article that’s either an indictment of the fly fishing industry’s penchant for quietly selling overstock online (to the detriment of fly shops), or a guide to getting a great deal on a fly rod.
He invested a fair amount of time looking at online sources of closeout goods (including eBay), and […]

Does a bite of fly fishing art each day keep the I’m-Not-fly-fishing blues away?
Frankly, it’s damned unlikely, but it’s still better than a sharp 6wt in the eye. That’s why I’m wondering how I missed this cool site for so long:

The artist’s goal is to post a piece of artwork each day for […]

Note:  I was going to put this on last night, but then I got the pics of the wayward moose, and this got BUMPED back.  The emails are still coming in asking more questions, than I know the answers to, but am looking them up this morning.

2008 isn’t exactly turning out to be the Year of the Salmon.
Populations up and down the West Coast are under siege from water diversions, dams, predators and habitat loss. And scientists keep citing mysterious “ocean conditions” (possibly related to climate change) as imperiling salmon food supplies in the ocean.
It’s not even safe to be […]
