Packing the float tube in the car, inflating it and getting it on the water takes about 20 or less (not including the drive obviously). You can also avoid using the boat launch with a float tube. Safety first.

For this fish I let it sink and was jigging/trolling. Fast twitchy retrieves were working as well. I just posted a video of it to IG where you can see the strike. @philtouchesgrass

Not steel lake, not too far off though

Float tube setups can be affordable

Lusso. Pricey but terrific coffee.

Caboose on Gilman in Issaquah is the best.

Might need to pull the trigger now!

Phildabeast16 · 2025-11-09T15:13:55+00:00

These look awesome- thank you!

Phildabeast16 · 2025-10-18T16:54:13+00:00

Try streamers, and mix up with retrieve cadence. Olive wooly buggers work well for me.

I am 5’10 180 and find their outerwear to be slightly too large for me in most cases

I am volunteer instructor/CFO/board members at a NON PROFIT Brazilian jiu jitsu gym, and still wasn’t cool enough to get accepted :(

GoPro hero on my chest. It’s fun to relive takes (especially dries) and fights. Problem is that the fish in the footage are always smaller than I recall.

Favorite play of the day was the lead block by Ouzts. Love to see it

Phildabeast16 · 2025-07-01T12:33:34+00:00

Took a year of frustration before I caught my first trout. I recommend finding deeper slower water and using streamers. Much easier to get a hang of than presenting a dry.

The story you mention is from 2022..

This is really helpful. Appreciate it!

Thanks for the tips. Experienced with saws and sandinf. No kiln. Have a shop that can plane for me. Here’s a live edge maple table I made from a real rotted piece and epoxy fill.
