Welcome! Spent a good few days fishing the river near Duncannon and even more driving through up to State College

I had the whole set . Young me had saved up some cash and fell hook line and sinker as it were. I never did anything on them but I remember the infomercial like it was yesterday.

Just got back from a week in Southwestern MT, fished a few different rivers and had a killer streamer bite. Have some but not all my pictures from the week but love to get out.

I have a tame 2025 on tap, just local whitetails in PA and a week of flyfishing in MT. Gathering more points to try and draw for Antelope in MT in 2027 ( will be DIY with a friend that lives out there).

September 2025- fly fishing Idaho and MT. Also had an old acquaintance message me trying to organize a bear hunt in MT so who knows. 2027- going to try to put together a DIY antelope hunt in MT with a buddy out there, already accumulating bonus points for the draw.

A few of my favorites include Conniption out of NC, Dogfish Head ( was out of DE not sure it is still produced) and locally to me in PA Manatawny Still Works

I used to fish a good bit out of Marshfield area. My brother and Dad have fished recently with Rich Antonino of Black Rose Sportfishing and recommended him. I know he fishes out of various ports in that area.

I don't drink much anymore, but for me a good gin with a bit of plain seltzer water and a slice of lime is hard to beat. For a good gin, at least in the eastern USA, I have found Dogfish Heads micro distillery makes a great one for mixing. Another excellent one is Conniption out of NC. Both to...

On my bi yearly trip to southwestern MT to fish with some old friends from PA. One buddy lives out there and fishes extensively, has his own drift boat and raft rig. Always a good time. Had killer weather, caught the end of the hopper bite and a few afternoons of wicked streamer fishing. Lot of...

I spent a week some years back at Upper Canyon Outfitters in Alder MT fishing. They did rides daily from the ranch and the owners and staff were fantastic folks. Options from lodge rooms with all meals to cabins with kitchens. Located in the Ruby Valley and gorgeous area. Up the canyon further...

I work full time as a mushroom grower and have done so the past three years with another year experience further back. Most of it is done in the dark. Of the flashlight offerings from the company none have beaten the Nitecore headlamps ( cannot recall model number). They hold up well, throw...

I am so sorry for your loss. Cancer sucks in every sense of the word, and it has taken too many good people in too many good families. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm a fan of the Alberto knot while my dad and brother go uni to uni.

They are good roasted. To really take them to the next level , saute some bacon in a pan ( chopped up), add the Brussels sprouts ( quartered or halved) and some fresh garlic, fresh ground black pepper. Saute until they get nicely brown. Bacon fat may negate some of the benefits of the veggie but...

If the state of Pennsylvania had deemed it ok for us hunt with semi auto rifles for big game when they changed the regs a few years ago I would jump on this. The Remington model 8 and 81 have a unique aesthetic and would be perfect for most whitetail hunting in my area.
