March 23, 2011

Ok, ready now. Deneki FIBFest, Here I Come! This week I had an impromptu, pretend I was fly fishing on saltwater class, from a legit—knows what he’s doing and how to teach it, casting instructor— Michael Bantam of DreamcastIdaho.

My 100th post and a Thank You Gift

March 22, 2011

I imagine I would have hit this 100th blog entry mark Ohhh…. last fall if it wasn’t for that unfortunate Outdooress sabbatical while something else needed my care and attention. But I’m back and for those of you who didn’t kick me off your feed reader for slacker status, I wanted to offer a thank [...]

I forecast a High of 80 degrees and a chance of Bonefish

March 16, 2011

It’s probably a good thing I’ve been busy from sun up to sun down lately and just noticed this morning that it’s March 16th. As in…Holy Bonefish…I leave for the Deneki FIBFest,  Andros South, in exactly 9 days! This may or may not be a good time for random admissions. It might be more prudent of [...]

Fly Fishing With a River Damsel and a Cardboard Kirk

March 14, 2011

This weekend I had the privilege of taking Emily aka The River Damsel out for two days of fly fishing. Our first day of fly fishing took us to an un-named river fly fishing for big brown trout.

A Delicate Presentation

February 18, 2011

I realize that if I don’t start posting here soon, I’ll be forced to kick myself out of my own Outdoor Blogger Network. I think that would be rather embarrassing… I’m not sure why I’ve been so negligent about posting here the last few months other then I’ve been distracted. I’ve been the person trying [...]

Bandon the Resentful

November 5, 2010

Over on the Outdoor Blogger Network I prompted the Outdoor Blogging community to share their favorite four legged friend this week for a Photo Challenge. I figured it was about time I stopped working so much and joined in the fun. Typically I refer to my golden retriever as “Bandon The Bashful” but I’m convinced [...]

I went all the way to Montana to be Nice…

October 26, 2010

…To Whitefish Last year, on December 30th I made my one and only New Years Resolution for the year 2010. It was a risky pledge, one I thought might tumble into disgrace at one point or another, so for public accountability, I wrote my resolution…here~~> I Resolve, To be Nicer to Whitefish in 2010 or, for [...]

The Outdoor Blogger Network…Co-Founder Does Post (finally)

October 20, 2010

It could be considered shameful that 3 days after the official launch of the Outdoor Blogger Network one of the co-founders is finally making an announcement about the project on her own blog, but seriously, I have a totally legit excuse. Hear me out…. I was planning on writing this post on Mondays big day and publishing [...]

Tricky Tricky

October 6, 2010

Oh the fun you can have on the Internet. I’ve spruced up the ‘About Rebecca’ page with a visual explanation of that Outdooress chick. Since my blog entry count has been sparse lately, I thought I’d share it out here as well, front and center. (I’ll take any bonus points I can get) If you [...]

Dropping The (Fish) Ball

October 6, 2010

A common problem in life:  Sometimes we focus in on one thing and something else suffers in the process. Conventional wisdom would define this as “Dropping the Ball” and lately, I seem to be dropping my blogging ball. It comes down to a simple math equation revolving around the hours in a week. Work (blah) [...]
