FLYJUNKIESFLYFISHING- the DARK MAGGIE... October 18, 2009Well It's Now Fall, and for a great many of us, Our Thoughts turn to pursuing Steelhead. Steelhead can be caught most every month in some River out West, but here in California, Fall and Winter are the prime times for Steelhead making their epic journeys up Rivers from the Ocean. I haven't targeted Steelhead in a number of years and This Year the u […]noreply@blogger.com (Dean Endress)

SWITTERSB BLOG- Cold Weather Gear Option by Klymit (Innovation for Winter Steelheading, Skiing, Kayaking??) December 4, 2009Was checking out an Outdoor Blog at Holler, when I came across this insulation option that has garnered recognition for Klymit gear. It seems pricey until you add up what some of you maybe paying for multiple synthetic layers now. I considered my layers of Merino Wool and a few other layers and the [...]SwittersB

Whiskey Creek- I’m a Mac, and I’m a Fly Fisherman November 30, 2009After much influence, I’ve recently made the switch from a PC to a Mac, specifically a Macbook Pro. Its a very nice machine; solid build, large bright screen that makes photos pop, very useful set of applications (iLife is really cool), and its very fast for mundane activities like resuming from sleep, starting iTunes, [...]WhiskeyCreek

SMALL FLY FUNK- Southern Comfort December 4, 2009A few months ago the board on Sexyloops featured some cool #22's tied by a guy called Ally McDonald.
