Please check out Bombs Away on one of our favorite blogs, Fly Fishing In Yellowstone National Park, noting the recent spill of 35 million gallons of sewage effluent into the Gallatin River.

Helpful links are offered, including one to the Chi Wulf blog which has done a good job of covering this.

Take Care of Your Rod

Good advice at any time, but especially in the depths of winter when you have some free time for some careful maintenance.

This Could Be What Finally Gets You Through This Long Winter

I resisted for a few days, thinking it indelicate. But I finally felt it was my duty to share this brilliant survival tip with my friends in the cold and snowy east. Stay warm.

Sincere thanks to Fly Fishing in Yellowstone National Park, usually a sober and delicate source of information.

UPDATE: This comment came in: The problem occurs when you have a round toilet seat.

I'm Glad I Went to the River on Monday

No, we didn't have a sudden snowfall. This photo is from Fly Fishing in Yellowstone National Park. They did get another big dump of snow there. But on Tuesday here the temperature got stuck at 40, and a strong wind was howling out of the North, and it felt like Winter again. The sky was deep blue, though, and when I turned my back to the wind and lifted my face to the sun I could feel its warmth.

I don't think I'll have to wait very long for another Spring-like day for my next river trip.
