As you can well surmise yourself (after reading Greg’s previous article), uhm yeah, him and I have not gotten out to do a whole lot of fishing yet this year. He is too busy making future generations of fly-fishers, or “making hatches of Scratches” as I like to kid him.

You are either NOOB, or you are PRO!!
As you know we got the Gold Panning bug over here at 50N. Well, Lance stumbled across a nifty Sluice Box on eBay and got a chance to hook it up the other day. We are quite taken with it indeed, and will in fact save us quite [...]
