Well guys, although it was technically March on Friday, I made the trek to Oregon again to try for that elusive steelhead. Dave wasn't able to join me- a bit under the weather and resting up for keeping up with a visiting grandson. Anyway, as you can guess, them fishes are STILL outsmarting me! I followed up the Oregon adventure with an excursion to a new (for me) river, the Wynoochee in SW Washington. I didn't have any better luck there but at least I did get a little look at the river. I wish it wasn't a two plus hour drive for me to get there- I'd like to spend more time exploring it. Bottom line- I'll be sending the tie along to JustDave in the next couple days and I'm confident he'll be more successful than I was. At least with them bright chromers he targets! Go gettum Dave- good luck! |

If it's any consolation, February completely skunked me. Snow is a four letter word and I had to scrape it off my driveway, sidewalk, deck, and even part of my roof. Although it's pretty, it's not very useful. I also learned a lesson. At 45 yrs old, sledding hurts. It really does. I'll probably forget this the next time I have an opportunity to sled, but there's no way I'm doing it again in the forseeable future. Prober, you've been an inspiration. Thanks again for hosting the tie. You're a champ! |

Thank you for the kind words. I think maybe next time I'll opt for a later month although it would be cool to be able to take my picture with a steelhead! |

Well Ladies and Gentlemen, Prober, I just got back online finally. I got the TIE last week. Although I went fishing (catching) on Monday, the TIE remained home in its' package. Although it wasn't there, the MOJO is at work. Here is one of the 2 fish Prober missed.  I'll get back down a few times next week WITH the TIE and get a couple more pics. JustDave |

Dave, being a veteran of hosting the tie, I don't expect you to make those types of mistakes. The fish is a good consolation, though. Nice catch. Prober, I told you that you should fish with Dave! |

Well I made it out twice more with the TIE. Wouldn't you know, first trip, no fish, second trip, lost the only hookup of the day. The TIE is now on it's way to Arizona for a birthday party.

OK folks, here's my fishing tie report for 4-12/13-13. Went to Bartlett Lake Arizona. Things turned south for us right off the bat. My boat wasn't running right and we never made it to the spot I wanted to fish, so we beached a couple hundred yards from the two pontoon boats in photo#1. The owner of the further boat (brown and orange with hard top) caught the new Arizona state record flathead catfish @ 6 hours before we beached near him. This fish weighed 76.5 pounds! On this trip I have not only the NAFC traveling bass tie, but allso the Outdoor-Fishing traveling muskie tie! I started out alternating between the two, as a competition. No luck. So I tied them both on for double the good juju. This worked well as I finally caught the monster in photo #2, a good pound of channel cat> Quite a let down after "Flathead Ed's" acheivement the night before! I napped from @ 8:30 pm to @ 12:30 am, when I woke up , re-baited my channel cat rods, and put a bluegill on my flathead cat rod. Fished @ 3 hours, then went back to sleep.At @ 4:30 am my flathead reel's clicker woke me up. I checked the rod, assured there was a fish on it, engaged the reel, and went back to sleep. At dawn I reeled in the fish and Danny took the photos #3 & #4 of the 6.75 pound channel cat that took my flathead bait. Somewhat of a let down , but still a great time at the lake with my good friend Danny. Sorry, site won't let me upload my photos.  |

Good job regardless of the inadequacies of the site to load your pics. Keep trying.

Glad to see the tie is still making us successful! You've still got a couple days left in the month- maybe that state record will be short lived!?! As for the photos, if I remember right, I couldn't load pictures when on IE but, when I switched to Chrome- no problem. If you have the option, try another browser. Or maybe wear the tie while posting! ;-) |
