Doldrums January 31, 2010 1 Comment

I took the dogs out last night at midnight. It was clear, cold as hell, and I could have sworn someone had installed a light above my garage that was shining on my backyard. Nobody did that. Why the hell would they? It was just the full moon on a cold, clear winter night in [...]

I received the email below from Tom Buhr today. Tom is the president of a grass roots organization that focuses on the Au Sable river in MI. He is the man we all wish we could be when it comes to having the balls and energy to fight the good fights and get motivated on [...]

A Catfish Hat? For ME? December 25, 2009 2 Comments

You shouldn’t have…
Don’t get me wrong here, I can appreciate the fight of a catfish. They are strong fish and from what I’m told, they are pretty damn smart or at least high ranking on the sensory perception scale. (If you look at them on a purely scientific basis they’re actually pretty cool.) Listen to [...]

An Addiction to Streamer Fishing

He is the Streamer [...]

The Art of Dennis Hayes IV October 3, 2009 No Comments

The wife and I are headed to Detroit this evening to check out an opening of Dennis Hayes IV paintings and sculpture. I bought a painting from Dennis a few years ago and hopefully will be able to buy another one tonight.
Edit:
If you live in the Detroit area you need to go see this. [...]

Another Hatchless Boot Review. Patagonia Riverwalkers. September 29, 2009 No Comments

Why another boot review? Because I love these fucking boots and they deserve it. That’s why.
I’m fairly certain that I bought these last year and they were closeouts from 2007. If someone knows differently, I stand corrected. Patagonia is, as most of us know, expensive gear that is worth what you pay for it. Most [...]

A new guy’s view… September 22, 2009 1 Comment

This is a report from the “newbie” we took along with us for the  ASBWPA Clean Up. To be fair, this was not Scott’s first fly fishing trip so he really isn’t a true “newbie” but it was his first weekend on the Au Sable. We asked him to put together a little trip story [...]
