Is There Anything Better....

These guys are the ones that keep me up at night.  All year long.

Thank god for Steelhead.

Do what you can do to help PROTECT them

Who Wants To Buy A Drift Boat...

You do...


With a tinge of sadness, we're moving on to a new ride made of self-bailing rubber and a NRS fishing frame.  Its some serious river riding mojo.

The boat above is a beautiful 14 ft fiberglass Osprey.  It's been a great partner on the Grande Ronde, St Joe, Big Hold, NF of the Coeur D'alene and a few others.

$2200 with trailer and two sawyer wooden oars.

Pretty sweet deal eh!

Interested, shoot me an email at

Sick Eats....More Great Work from BOP an JMAC...

Colorado Trout from Joey Macomber on Vimeo.


So when is it time for trout to eat like this?  In the middle of winter,  seeing a video like this kind of gives you a boner for summertime.  At least it did for me!

Great, great work from RA Beattie and Joey Macomber.  Not many guys doing it better than them in fly fishing cinematography.

Big Thanks to the Vanilla Guerilla to bringing this video to light

It's time again to celebrate the winter season with the 3rd annual Hooks and Hops event hosted by the Silver Bow Fly Shop

If you havent been, it's a killer event where Sean and his crew pick up your first beer as a thank you for our business and to another great year of fishing. 

Last year there was in excess off 190 folks, and this year with a bigger venue it should be a hell of a party.   2012 brings the show to the Black Diamond Sports Bar in the Spokane Valley where they have acres of free parking and lots of room in the venue.

What a great way to warm up the year, bull sheet a ton and possibly win some great gear.

See you there!

Stickers Done....

Finally, the product is in.....For those of you who commented on my earlier blog post, I will be contacting you to arrange for delivery.

From an idea that began in my head and mixed with the artistic skill of Deanna Camp, out came this logo that we are very proud of.

Looking for sticker production, take a gander at www.buildasign.com. 

There are a gazillion different companies out there you can choose to work with and on the internet, finding the right one can be a crap shoot. 

From the moment I started working with Build a Sign, I was impressed.  The customer service was fast, on point and their logo/picture upload was as easy as it could be.  Pretty sure a 5 year old could figure out their online interface. 

In other words, they made it really to work with them

And, I'm pretty damn happy with they end result.

OMR Strikes Again...

It isnt even funny any more. Seriously. 

5 minutes before the closing bell today, OMR goes ahead and ropes a beast.

Amongst the Fly Fishing Degenerate Council, this is the biggest steelhead of the season.

I've yet to hear the full story, but I couldn't be more happy for him.  Ahh, seriously.

Sweet Elixar of Steelheading...

Not much to say here, but YEP...
