New Threads

I was watching Ben at Huge Fly Fisherman and saw his shirt and I had to have it. Turns out it was from the Trailer Trash Fly Fishing podcast folks.

Luckily, I had the $25 in the bank to make the shirt mine.

Man… it is just a thing you have to learn if you are going to chase bonefish (or anything in the salt) and when you get it, when you finally learn how to do it, all things become possible.

How to Skiff

A solid video from Huge Fly Fisherman and probably suggestions most folks reading the blog are already aware of.

I’ll say… the one thing I won’t do on here is offer to let the guide fish if I’m paying $700 for a day of guiding. I want to be cool and all, but I have limited days on the water and that’s a lot of scratch. Other than that… yeah… make an effort. Be kind to the skiff.

(Yes, offering to pole is probably aimed at friends fishing in skiffs belonging to friends. There are a few skiffs I’ve been through friends, but living in CA, most of the skiffs I’m on are ones I’m paying to be on, which does change the math.)
