Today I felt like Odysseus from Homer's Odyssey. A friend of mine whom I will call Circe or his new indian name "he whom rarely gives good advice" gave me some advice to go fishing rather than sit ar...

Friday I was 3 for 7. Thursday I was 4 for 5. Wind was coming from the north west and pulverzing those on the dock. The wind made it hard to tell if you were getting hits and the way the fish acted...

Eureka I've discovered king is about all I can say. Watching people to the left and/or right of me all summer at the pier hooking up has been a drag - and not the one on my reel either. I started ...

The only thing I hate about recently planted trout is how small they are (at least in Bitter Lake). Fish ranged from 6 to 8 inches. This was the 4th trip to Bitter Lake and I was already beyond bi...

Went down to the Edmonds pier mid-day after a hard day of watching the work phone not do anything at all. Since I couldn't drum up any business - no drum and no drum sticks it was off to go chase aft...
