    What's your do-it-all 5 or 6wt fly rod?

    I have been using a 5wt TFO BVK and have really liked it. It's quite a fast action rod but is great for streamers and I have used it for dries as well. Price should fall into that medium range. I have also used a Loomis Pro4x and it's a good rod too. Not as fast action as my BVK but still stiff...

    Paunsaugunt Utah Mule Deer

    I worked at Bryce Canyon National Park for a few summers and falls and you can often see some nice bucks hanging out along the main road in the early morning and evenings.

I specifically tried on the javelina and the first thing I noticed was how loud it was. A definite swish sound when you...

    Browning SPEED A-TACS opinions.

    I have set of the Speed Hellfire stuff and think the pattern is one of the best for the western hunting I do. The clothing is decent but I'm not sure if it's worth the price tag they give them. My first outing I noticed the fly zipper would separate from the bottom with me hiking. I sent them...

    Trump begins repealing national park declarations.

    I am all for reduction in the size of some of the national monuments. I grew up in a town bordering the Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument and saw first hand the impact that it had. Yes, it has brought in more tourism but it has also limited the use of parts of the now monument. I...
