I have concluded perhaps the last guide trip for the season. It wasn’t freezing cold but cold enough with constant winds. I quickly heat...

It’s been a great weather (till next post😅) and fishing is good most part of the day. But I don’t think the fall baetis has really...

Usually October “feels” the longest month of the year for me but somehow I feel each of the past 3 months has been long enough. I...
