Man

I'm glad I got a summer with this one, now she's wearing my shirt in AK catching char.

That's one you don't catch and release. Maybe it's time I move to AK.

Dog Days

Biking - single speed climbing 2500+ on the nastiest shit you can find with Brett Rodela. Feeling pretty manly after gritting this ride out.

Fishing - Picked Mikey up at the airport and partied and fished for a couple days. Well more party than fish. The lone bass we got in a few hours poaching the Tahoe Keys.

Girls - Staying away from them for the first time in ages.

More to come soon.

Got a lot on my plate and no money. Perfect.

P.O.A.C.H. Part One

Yep oh yep.
This the first of many.
Went to do a short recon scope of this little beauty.

Locked deep away in the gated communities and sheltered lives of those that control the world around us.
Put on a nicer-ish shirt and talked to my buddy who works at the golf course.
He's got a computer that tells him where all the carts are, marshalls and dickheads.
He called me today to let me know the coast was clear from 4 pm on.
I walked down not expecting much, with 3 flies and a 7wt., and the temperature being near or over 100 for the last month.
3rd cast=
A small largemouth. In 100 degree heat.

Even had the maintenance guy snap this shot, after he snuck up on me and I thought it was mission over.


My buddy says that one is small. Yes I agree. He also said that there are some twice that size. I hope he's telling the truth.

More to come as the summer rolls on.

29 inch wheels, what you got on that rap game?

Yeah, let's get ready for SSWC!
Thanks Noah Silverman, this is the raddest beast ever.

HELLOWEEN RACE

I'm throwing this race here in Reno.

It's gonna be like a super-cylocross-alleycat.

You're gonna puke.

Gilligan

Is the world's laziest man.

Dude's a fine fly tosser, one of my best friends, and even catches some retarded trout.

Sample of some of our drifts and stupid road trips.













Thanks man.

You've been the best teacher I've ever had, and you've taught me so goddamn much about this life we live through our passion, I'm forever in debt to you for showing me what this is really all about.



Cheers to you, Mr. Beckman.

Koper

Scott Koper is like the little brother I never wanted. Second time carper, first time winner.
Not bad for a dirty Reno backwater.

Carp even gave him a mud pie face with a smack of it's tale in the shit mud.

You can bag on carp all you want, but when the river is 70 degrees, I'd rather go tangle with a few double digit garbage loving beasts than go stand in the river pulling in discolored trout that are gonna die because of the heat wave.

Man oh man look at that smile!

The Truth.

Puck Febble. This is the real deal.

All you should peep This.

Do you want this to happen to the last great salmon run on Earth?
Fuck No!

The Holy Grail

And from Florida to the California Delta, many tears were shed, much gnashing of teeth, and the Pride of the Bible Belt has been destroyed.

Japan is always leading us into the future.
