8/1 Lower Yuba run
(Preview)
Between not having fished for 6 weeks, and getting tired of the windy, foggy mornings in the bay . . . I decided to run up to the Lower Yuba on Saturday. I knew it was getting bad when my wife said I was backcasting in my sleep, so I had to get up there. What made me get up at 5:00 Am and drive 2 1/2 hours to fish in 1...

Keith's day on the Boulder River, MT
(Preview)
Today was one of those amazing days where the fish totally cooperated. I floated the Boulder River which is appropriately named. It was a wild ride down the river tossing hoppers and hopper/droppers. There seemed to be a fish every 5th or 6th cast. I caught 30 or 40 nice browns and rainbows from 13"...

(Preview)
My next stop was the Bitterroot River in Missoula, Montana. We got on the river at 8:00 am due to the hot weather and fished until after 7:00 pm. The main river wasn't fishing well at all so we walked up a couple of spring creeks stalking brown trout that were hanging out in the cool clear water. It was real...
