That's a pretty impressive list of items. What a cool cause too. Thanks for posting Curtis.

Wade & Gary. I too believe that this is an opportunity. Something better will find you! I am living proof. I was laid off, and now I have a 30' commute to my studio in the back making sawdust & shavings for fly fishermen. I couldn't dream up a better clientele! Change is always tough, but it...

This is shaping up to be a pretty big weekend over at the Spot. I will be there in a booth with any Sierra Net I happen to have at the time. I have been shipping nets like crazy, so I need to get on 'em! They will be having a ton of great raffle items (Benefitting PHW & CFR) including two Terry ...

Hi ya Kno Kwe! Glad you made decided to hang out with us. I am an Alaska LOVER. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, anything Alaska! I spent 12 days in the Wilderness last summer above Dillingham fishing to my hearts content on the Agulapak. Caught a few of these. http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l191/gregmadrigal...

Chips, WELCOME! :bananadance: This is a great way to further the interest. Lots of great people on here who have helped me in too many ways to count. Looking fwd to the "blue line" scout trip Sasha referred too. I happen to be "Idaho raised" too. Was born in Cali, but lived my fo...

Yes, this is HIGHLY welcomed!

Yea, great comments here. I have to say, it really is a PIA to post using Photobucket, and there bandwidth limits. I don't remember this being an issue before they updated their site to the "New & Horrible" site that doesn't allow you to grab a whole folder and paste [img] code. I comp...

Please at least read the bullet points below. This is a GOOD THING!!!!! I for one, am excited! So apparently, the FS heard me, and plenty of others LOUD and CLEAR. :bananadance: Kernville, CA - January 31, 2014 - For Immediate Release - The Kern River Ranger District (KRRD) of the Sequoia National ...

Too late.....

I finally received a reply from the Forest service after emailing them my concerns. She replied, "Thank you for your comments! I will include you in my list of folks to keep up to date on the decisions we make regarding managing the upper kern river, in an effort to provide better resource prot...

I'm with Bobk on this WIND!!!!! Now, that said, wind is not necessarily specific to FF, so I say the fly line. It's bot the beauty and the beast of FF. Casted nicely, there is nothing that conjures up visions of trout busting out of a seam to whack a dry fly in pristine water. The reality: Tangled l...

Thanks all. I have a call into the rehab center that should be getting her. It's the one in Lake Arrowhead, but no returned call yet. I'll let you know.

Went fly fishing today, caught the skunk....and an owl?! Yesterday, I went fly fishing at Jess Ranch Lakes in Apple Valley, Ca. It was a cold morning (mid 30's, and ccccold for California!) and the water temps were in the high 40's, low 50's. The fishing wasn't so good, and I left my float tube arou...

Guys, at the end of my post was "For more information, contact Tricia Maki at triciamaki@fs.fed.us, or by phone at 760-376-3781 ext.630." I already emailed her my thoughts. I we all try and let this lady know our opinions about the timing, and our concerns. Certainly can't hurt if you can'...

This was emailed to me today through lakeisabella.net. Someone I know up there tells me there is a big grassroots movement underway to address the camping trash/waste issue. This is an update along those lines. I am going to write in to suggest NO CAMPing outside of designated c/g's. UPDATE - Forest...
