Temple Dog

No, not the band. That's Temple of the Dog, with Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell. I'm talking about the weird, furry critter from Tibet that has great properties for trout and steelhead streamer patterns. Well, anyway we now have a reliable supplier of the stuff and hence are stocking it in a variety of tasty colors. Stop by and check it out. -BW

Fish Skulls

Since we're beginning 6 months of straight rain you'll be tying lots of flies. So you should come in and check out Fish Skulls. It's basically a metal helmet for your fly and the added bonus of cool, prismatic eyes. We have them in different colors and sizes. They will make your flies look cool, especially if your thread heads don't look so pretty. -BW

Gande Ronde

Just got off the river for 5 days. Fishing well over all. Only one day with no fish. Skaters, Small wets, bigger stinger flies or tubes. It's all working pretty well right now. No one was roping 10 a day but hitting 1-5 was common. Busy with anglers but not crazy crowded. Water temp was steady about 57 in the daytime. Little bit of rain in the forecast this week should be good for moving fish around as long as it doesn't pour. Air temps look stable too so get to getting. -BW
