2 Minute Brown

Some very pretty high mountain New Zealand water and trout, especially the good brown at about the 2 minute mark.

Chuitna Mine--Bigger Than Pebble

The proposed Chuitna coal mine in Alaska would cost $6 for every dollar generated by the mine.  If these stats are accurate, why would any government even consider it for approval.  Read on...

Lay Off The Coffee

Don't speak a word of Scandihoovian, but this was kinda humorous to watch nonetheless.

Or is it?  This piece takes apart one of the most common cliches.

Dude Can Cast

If you follow spey casting much, you've probably heard of Eoin Fairgrieve.  As a student of the spey casting game, I love to watch a great caster.  Eoin qualifies.

Lefty Kreh

Every interview I hear with Lefty Kreh makes me think it would be an absolute treat to spend some time on the water with him.

Skeena Steel?

Don't know for sure, but I'm guessing this is Skeena River tributary action of some sort.

World Fly Fishing Championships 2013

I've definitely got a few competitive bones in my body but trying to outnumber somebody else's catch doesn't excite me that much.  I'll take beautiful scenery, areas away from the crowds, and fewer, bigger, and more challenging fish anytime.  What do you think?




Maybe something like Reel Girl in Slovenia for example.

Can't help but notice Reelgirl casts better than many of the competitors at the World Fly Fishing Championships.  What are the qualifications I wonder?

Aaaaaaahhhh

Look how fast the chinooks have taken up residence after dam removal.  Salmon, trout, steelhead, and all the plants and animals they nourish will be thankful.
