Check out my hip-hop buddy and fly-tying guru Greg Garcia as he shows off his newest creation for the fall season and 2017 Umpqua Fly Catalog. A beautiful and elegant little baetis , sure to be lodged in the lips of many nice trouts. Check out the Darth Baetis. 

If you are not familiar with Greg's other videos, check out the rest of the site for other great tying shorts. A wizard at the vise.

Expensive Saturday

Although in the long run, this this will make my life really nice having two frames and reducing the need to change lenses all the time, it makes for a very expense day of shopping. This should could compliment my D810 very nicely as it has virtually all the same qualities, processor, with just a couple of changes to the menu's. 


You will also notice the addition to the view screen in the rear.
Also invested in a new light-weight compact tripod that should travel real well. With the exception of 
a new travel case (ordered and on its way) all camera gear is updated and ready to go for Belize.

Get Bent




Now is the time to start filling calendar with the remainder of fall fishing trips. Just a few precious
days left of summer, THEN, fall and one of the best fishing seasons is upon us. Screw soccer with the kids, hunting, and all the other BS. It is time to throw the last of the hoppers, get out the boxes of small fall baetis, and the jumbo boxes of streamers. Our fish want to eat, put on the winter weight, Like a fat kid to cake...

See you out their on the Ditch....

Thanks to the kind and generous folks of Salida and the web, the show 
is off to roaring start.
