    Fly Tying/Fishing Thread

    I hadn't fished since the end of July, so the quick stop was good. Hazy here, but not too bad:

    Why I didn’t fill my WY general tag.

    I wounded a bull, then lost the blood trail in a storm, then got the pickup stuck on greasy roads, got unstuck and got a hotel room, a couple more days of rain so I drove back to Idaho and 6 days later drove back to WY to get camp. Looking forward to the next WY general tag!

    Wolves hit Isle Royale campgrounds in search of food

    Body size/frame is large but rare to be over 100 lbs due to being very lean. Everybody that sees one in the wild thinks they are looking at a 120+ lb critter. I remember reading an interview with the USFWS federal trapper that trapped in NE MN through the 90s and 2000s and I am pretty sure they...

    Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?

    I drive through Bozeman several times a year. Maybe I should stop sometime to see what all the fuss is about.

    Non resident tag group

    Hard to say on how they made the picks. The guy I know on the group is a hunter and does DIY NR hunting in multiple states and has family that comes to Idaho to hunt. I would expect him to provide very thoughtful and good input.

    More Idaho CWD.

    I haven't been able to find the numbers posted any where on IDFG website but I was at a meeting a few years ago and a IDFG deputy director was there discussing CWD. This was shortly after the positive test in unit 14 - he said that they had been doing close to 1,000 tests a year for several...

    Pick a state to become a resident ...

    We are a <1 mile from Costco. Tough to beat. Easy to get caught up in negatives about some places. Bought our house pre 2020 so feel stuck at times when I look at real estate for some "small" upgrades to our current place. But we are <1 mile to national Forest trailheads. I have had hunted...

    Alaska 2024

    Love the photos! A friend and I are going to the Kvichak first week of Sept 2025 for big rainbows. A guy I know has been doing the trip for 10+ years and organizes the group at a DIY lodge. Working on making sure my gear is setup. Will probably do one fly out day to a smaller river/creek.

    Sunday Pic of the Day

    Mine tours are fun. Should have had someone stand next to the D10 dozer for scale.

    Missing my boat

    Nice! If I see a deal like that I will end up with a boat sooner than planned.
