    Somewhere within the "navigable" determination are the words "used for commerce". By definition that includes any stream that is or has been mined for minerals or gravel...... and that opens up just about every single stream in the state, as I understand it. Can a person not file an appeal without an attorney? And if so, is there a "fee" for filing one? The tributary's of our impoundments pose what I consider a valid question, even with gray law. At which point are you no longer sure of being on a public waterway when navigating up a tributary arm?

    Yep, those flip-flop wearing heathens prolly haven't heard the podcast. Somebody should go spam their facebook pages to inform them. Naw, not really.... they are only gonna hassle you if you have a fishing rod in your hand. Otherwise they'd be informing EVERYONE of the ban, instead of just the fishermen. Trappers and waterfowl hunters havent a clue either I'm guessing, unless they also fish.

    Opportunity knocks, go get ya some. I doubt anyone would mind.

    I know, right? It's all those darn people who think independantly, they always ruin everything.

    I actually did learn a few new things new from the podcast. 1. that MVP wasn't even aware that spinning/casting gear existed until he was in high school. 2. that Liv2flyfish offered a guide service. 3. that as long as it looks like you attempted to put something on your soles, you won't get a ticket. 4. that didymo is native to North America, and NZ's didy came from HERE on a pair of waders. ( yet when it comes back it is considered invasive and deadly). The snot thickens.

    Absolutely! Dying hair, feathers, and fur is an adventure you'll most likely wish you hadn't dabbled in.

    Yeah well, everybody needs a hobby. He prolly thinks fishing is disgusting. LOL

    Guess you gotta tune in to hear what VanPatten has to say that hasn't already been pounded home. Didy...it isn't here. Didy...it might get here. Didy...let's try (within reason) to keep it away. Van Patten....defines "within reason".

    If a person with a multiple personality disorder commits suicide is it considered a mass murder?

    It's a Summertime big crappie hotspot, and the local serious trotliners seem to like that area alot.

    I ain't scared of that 8wt. and your B10S's, bring it on, Slugger!

    I'm not afraid of barbless hooks, but all my flies have barbs. I prefer smaller barbs like TMC's have vs. the outrageous ones on most Mustad fly hooks..... but Mustads are a bargain, so I deal with it and haven't suffered noticeably. Almost hate to burn bread on myself by saying this but; I'm pretty good (or lucky) about keeping hooks out of my own body.

    That's Lowe's factory mount? Ug! I hate it. I think you could fabricate something way better than that, even if you had to use a piece of 2X8 treated lumber.
  14. fishinwrench
    LOL, I caught that earlier, but I was gonna wait until he fired back to set him straight. See how I roll?

    I understand the situation, but if you mount it canted towards the bow center then it'll be hanging out over the port gunnel when its in the stowed position. Knowhatimean? Some people just live with that, but it would drive me crazy.

    One of my customers has a 17' Mako flats skiff that I've been trying to finaggle him out of for several years, he never uses it and that just drives me crazy..... I NEED that boat!

    Stalcup's Crazy dad is the one I've settled on, it's the only crawdad pattern I carry, but I have a hard time detecting bites with crawdad flys fished along the bottom. A big #4 rabbit strip leech will kill'em on the Salt..... probably better on any given day than any crawdad type fly. With the added plus that channel cat will eat them regularly too.

    Yeah, a FLYFISH friendly boat. Most bassboats have too many "attachments" (seats, cleats, ect.) and make flyfishing out of them a nightmare. I have a 16' Lowe Olympic jon specifically rigged for flyfishing and out of all the boats I've had it is by far my favorite, I've had more FUN in it within a years time than all the other boats combined.

    I've heard that there's a lake up by Marysville where catching Musky's are pretty common. Other than that I guess Pomme de Terre,

    Attach with 3/16 rivets and back them up with aluminum washers. Before mounting and drilling stick strips of step traction coveringon the mount so that you have a gasket between the mount and the boat....quiets things down alot, and keeps it from vibrating loose. Mounting off center on the Port side is the way to go. A center mounted TM is ALWAYS in the way when pulling up to a bank, when getting in and out, and when trailering.

    LMAO! Wake up, Pete! Somebody fell in the sauce last night, didn't they?
  22. fishinwrench
    If it ever takes off I'd do it. I would prefer a draw type format and paper score though, instead of a weigh-in. (Scoring in inches rather than pounds).
  23. fishinwrench
    While you're getting MVP's expert analysis, ask him when the last time he actually waded a trout stream was.
  24. fishinwrench
    You'll be here in time for the suspending jerkbait bite, and when that starts to peter out the crawdad crankbait/jig bite will take front seat. Steep South facing banks in March, then more gentle sloping gravel/chunk mix banks as April nears. Pay particular attention to spots where you catch keeper fish and search out similar spots elsewhere. Good luck, and Welcome to The Lake

    facebook? Be glad to help, but I don't belong to that data-mining op. Ya reckon congressmen actually play on there, or just have someone else do it in their behalf?
