    The Fall bite is on

    I wanted to get one more day of fishing in before I get serious about elk and bird hunting. Based on today's action I may have to go a few more times. Lots of fish, lots of fun. Came in at 1:30 with a good catch and just enough time to get them processed and the fish house drained before...

    Personal best crappie

    Caught my personal best crappie yesterday. The day started out slow. I'd hit about 5 spots and was scratching out a catch of small crappie,some bluegill and perch. I owed a ranch some panfish in a swap for beef burger. I checked an underwater ridge and located a pod of fish 25' down. Lots of...

    Variety season

    Fun day yesterday on Brownlee. From one cast to the next you didn't know what you would hook. I was targeting crappie but caught 5 species total. All on the same jig. Filleted them out and gave most away to some girls in town and neighbors on the way home. Saved enough for a fish fry Friday...

    A couple days at the coast

    Escaped the heat at home and made it over to Westport,Wa. Monday the ocean was as flat as it can be. Great fishing both days, limits of salmon and black rockfish for the whole boat. Tuesday the captain got word that there was better fishing further north and we got into more kings. Broke my...

    40 days of growth

    Thought this might be interesting to some. My wife took these photos 40 days apart. He's in real good shape, his body has filled out nicely.

    It's a hard life out there

    This guy showed up a couple evenings ago. He had a close call with something, maybe coyotes. Left ear is mangled and the right sticks straight up.

    3 hours of fun

    Yesterday was a beautiful day to be on the reservoir. Good fishing, lots of smallmouth and a nice grade of crappie. Now it will be hard to focus on my chores with good fishing so close to hand.

    Elky New Year

    Went to sleep hearing elk talk and woke up to elk all around the house. Great way to start the New Year. The summer fires ate up a lot of their range.

    Brownlee cast & blast, panfish & chukar

    I took the shotgun along today and got a chukar from the boat. Cold morning. Fished about 3 hours. With the time change I have to get off the water pretty early to get the fish processed and the fish house drained.

    Born this way or injury?

    This little showed guy up this week. I got a feeling this won't end well for him as he ages and his antlers grow. He's also getting rutty.

    Don't look a gift elk in the mouth ( or don't hate me)

    Probably shouldn't tell this one but it is a good story. We started seeing elk on our game cams at night mid-September. I'd hike out early trying to catch them but they were always gone. Oct 2 there was bugling, chuckling and grunts all night long. I had a hunt in Wyoming leaving in a couple...

    Some Fall fishing

    My elk and pronghorn hunts are done and in the freezer. Got the post-hunt blues so might as well go fishing. I thought it would be much better but we still caught some fish after some moving around. Came in with 13 crappie, 4 bass, 6 perch, 15 bluegill and 2 catfish. Biggest catch was 2lb+...

    Westport coho

    Made it over to the Washington coast for a couple days on the charter boats. A few nice chinook were caught but coho were really on the bite. These were combo trips and after the salmon we went for rockfish. Wednesday we caught big black rockfish, two at a time, almost on the surface and...

    Close call

    Like a lot of the West, Oregon is burning up. Monday and Tuesday lightning hit our region. Initially we had 10 fires that they call the Badlands Complex. The two fires closest to us were the Timber Canyon and Powder River. We saw two strikes that instantly burst into flames. I fought it Monday...
