Way More People Than Fish
Sunday, February 24th, 2008I just noticed I haven’t written anything new here in a month. I hope none of you have checked in regularly and been disappointed at not finding any new posts. Besides fishing and guiding, I do a lot of my writing during the winter. For the last couple of weeks, I have also been working on captions and photo placements for my new Olympic Peninsula fly fishing guidebook, which should be out in June. I’ve also been putting together the spring newsletter, which, barring any malfunctions with the site, you should get the first week in March.
To be honest, it also gets a little boring writing about winter steelhead week after week. It’s not boring fishing for them or guiding people for them. I just get tired of trying to think of something new to say about them each week.
Fortunately, there will soon be more to fish for on the peninsula than migratory rainbow trout. I intend to begin fishing for red-tails and rockfish from the beach next month, and lake fishing will kick in a few weeks later. Best of all, the chum salmon fry outmigration will begin any day now, and that produces my favorite saltwater cutthroat fishing of the year. (more…)
