Tying Mad

Most people have some sort of vice or activity they use to let off steam and I am no different. My number one way is fishing but last night after work it was too late too fish. The whole night i was steaming because anyone who knows me knows i am a crazy die hard nba fan. My team is the jazz but i have a borderling obssesive hate of the LA Lakers and last nights blowout win for them in addition to some very obnoxious customers had me irked to say the least. So when i got home i decided to put the anger to good use and get some flies done for my naknek trip in late August/early September. Que some blaring rage against the machine and the next two hours was a very productive hour of a mad scientist concocting some creations sure to wreak havoc on some big trout. Now those trout better hope for a game 7 boston victory or some truly evil fly may be headed their way!

Good to have options

My favorite part of of of where we are at now and for the next few months is the amount of options I have in such a small area. Currently the buskin is closed for sockeye but hopefully pasagshak will heat up soon and for the next month it will be an option. Pretty soon we will have king runs in 3 of our rivers and in july pinks big dollies and all summer good lake fishing for rainbows. I love having so much to do with so much water in less than 100 miles of road. Its why i put up with the winter.
