I miss fly fishing.

Stuck on rainbows again. Not a bad problem to have. Good to get some fishing in, because it’s time for elk soon.

Back to fishing. Entering my favorite season. Cold hands, river to myself, good fish.

I will be doing it soon. I target whitefish in the winter. They make great fish fries. This year the fish and the fries will be fried in beef fat. No more vegetable oil. Should have much better flavor all around.

Great fish. Agreed, time to get fishing. Lining up a Horn trip soon. Maybe after upland closes, big bird year and my dog has been neglected since big game opened..

Beautiful day, uncommon conditions actually.

Short days make this a great time of year to stock up on the winter and spring essentials.

Good looking bugs. Blur out that PRL though lol, that’s the exact same materials I tie it in, some days it feels like cheating to use… I know it’s all presentation but with that color combo it doesn’t take much of a presentation! That Grinch is money too

It’s the first half of a very specific two fly system that has never left me skunked. It’s a killer.
