New season...new goal...new fish.  For some reason being busy has limited my posts.  I'm focusing on fishing the fly more this year and hopefully can keep the blog busy.  Until the fly is in the water here is a bright coastal king to keep the juices flowing.

There's nothing like hooking one of these bad boys in water that's deep enough with enough current for them to really work.  I had no where to land it at until a nice boater let me board and assisted with the landing.  It will feed the family so the next fish can swim free to do their thing. 

I have a bamboo rod that saw some action this summer and I believe it needs to feel the bend of a fish again so over the mountains for one last trout hunt I may go.  However, the call of the coast is very strong with the good fishing and its hard to ignore.
