Nice Day Chasing Smallies NE Oregon

Dear FTF Member,
Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock
Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will

Spent a day with a good friend and my kids hunting smallmouth in a NE Oregon river. Water was low and the smallies were very cooperative. With the expert netting skills of my daughter and the bass calling capabilities of my son it was a good 30-40 fish in the boat day. No flymph fishing this day. Bunny leeches, chenille worms, sculpin streamers and crawdad patterns were the choice of the day.

Yours truly...

Very nice, Carl. It's been so hot here that the smallies have shut down and stayed down for the last two months. You don't mind if I live vicariously through you for a bit , do ya?

Hug your daughters, or someone else will.

Thanks again,

It has been hot here as well, this day it was about 93. Got some swimming in also. Luckily the water stays relatively cool as it is just about all sourced from snow melt.
