7/24/2015 10:00:00 PMNice work brother! Have been inside the "hate" circle of select fly fishermen before; it was quite the knock-down, drag out war, online slander included. I admire your method of circumventing the situation with kindless. Tight lines, my friend.

7/25/2015 9:35:00 AMive converted to mostly dry fly fly fishing recently, and ill never become the elitist snobby type.. those types just ruin it for everyone. the point of fishing is to have fun.. how are threats fun? kinda defeats the purpose...

7/25/2015 10:43:00 AMI was there just after you left! The two guys didn't know I was behind them just up the hill. They put away their fly rods and the older guy said " I thought that guy would never leave. Now let's pound some hatchery steel!", and started slinging bait! Later I ran into them at the road and introduced myself. The older guy says, holding his fly rod, good to meet you, I'm Kurt Beardslee! Hahahahahaha! JK
Way to be the better man, and the better sportsmen!

7/25/2015 3:14:00 PMI heard there are some crazy rule closures on the rivers due to low water. No Afternoons or evening fishing. I do not know the area well so not clue to what parts they are talking about. Have any of you heard of all this. I am wishing to hit the river but it is confusing.

Beautiful fish. It has been a tough year with the low water. Nice to hear of your catch.
Happy fishing!

7/26/2015 10:49:00 AMGreat job man, that is really something how they treated you. I was further up the other day and hit 3 fish , landed two-all on spoons - there are fish around and really glad to hear karma worked. Not sure I would have said a word to those jack wagons , but you are a credit to the guys that fish up there

Great job ilvcassidylake. My interactions with you have always been pleasant and you have showed me a lot and thank you for the lessons. We still have to take My sled to the cowlitz. Someday.
