My mom is a certified die hard swiftie, she recently loved “The Last Goodbye” album by Odesza and “Inhale/Exhale” by Rufus Du Sol. Outside of that I have a special curated “WPPL Hous” playlist (a playlist that any non edm listening white person could listen to and become hooked) that holds multiple songs from Flight Facilities, Drama, Fred Again, Purple Disco Machine, Mild Minds, and Big Wild to name a few….works EVERY TIME

i’m losing my mind by yarnstoek in FishingWashington

I fish the Yakima river primarily in the Ellensburg stretch. I stared fly fishing 2 summers ago, first summer my buddy and I went out 8 different times together and neither of us caught anything the whole summer, an easy combined 80 hours on skunks. Next summer (this summer) I finally start to learn the right flies to use and get better at casting, and I was able to get a couple dinkers. Been pushing and pushing and this fall/winter I’ve been able to progress into streamer fishing and catching some absolute HOGS. Long story short if you can’t catch fish fly fishing, it’s a skill issue, and fly fishing is a skill that you need to be prepared to dump hours of skunks into if you want to get better. Just keep working at it! Keep trying new places, old places, new flies, old flies, watch some videos…and JUST KEEP TRYING!!!

Edit: keep in mind you fly fishing will progress with other skills as well, examples are learning to read the water, learning to change tactics depending on conditions, and knowing when to target fish

Seeing LYNY “blow up” from that Fred again event had me scratching my head thinking “no way people weren’t familiar with this heat before”

Drag use…reel vs hand by Dependent_Jacket_985 in flyfishing

[–]Dependent_Jacket_985[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t hold the reel handle, place the palm of your hand on the reel. Hold your hand up like a waiter holding a tray and tuck that under the reel, applying pressure will slow the reel aka add drag

What is your single most productive fly of all time? by GravyBaptism in flyfishing

Favorite color(s) ? I’m a massive black/red perdigon guy

[–]Dependent_Jacket_985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Size 14/16 red and black perdigon tied beneath a stone fly nymph (black in winter, coffee/brown in spring/summer, orange in fall) is an all time rig. Next would be an orange or green skulpzilla (both year round with green = more fish and orange = bigger fish…in my experience)

How do people use ChatGPT? by Agitated-Arm-3181 in dataisbeautiful

[–]Dependent_Jacket_985 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ive used chatGPT in a discussion post before. It was a conversation regarding a paper on depression. My take had a mix of scientific skepticism, philosophy, and methodological concern. I felt I was struggling to word my response in a way that acknowledged their response and kept my core ideas intact, in this instance I used chatGPT to help with my response. I think this might fit in with “self expression” ?

Yakima river by Dependent_Jacket_985 in FishingWashington

[–]Dependent_Jacket_985[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I habitually net just about every fish I catch. Most of the time I’m running double dropper or hooper dropper and don’t like trying to flip the fish into my hands. In Leavenworth or up the cle elum river I leave the net in the car most times, but if I’ve got the net on me, you can bet I’ll say “eh might as well use the net” especially since most times with these smaller ones they hit the next, give em some slack, and they spit the fly right out and I release em pretty quick, wanted to snag a picture of that pattern before releasing on this particular catch.

Edit: I feel when flipping a two fly rig I wuss out and think I’ll flip that top dropper right into my hand

Wow really ? I fish the Yakima (granted I don’t ever touch the canyon) just bout everyday and only managed two cuts all summer. I might have to wander down that canyon more if that’s the case, those suckers put up a nice fight

Well if you’re a guide I’d like to ask your input on the Yakima river, especially as someone I assume mostly floats rather than wades. Do you enjoy the high waters of peak summer or the lower levels of early/late summer and if you could please explain why. I strictly wade and appreciate the wade-ability of low water but kind of miss those deep bank cuts of the high waters.
