The Midge hatch is on at Lake Sammamish. A few found "Shelta" under my no flop brim.
The GloFly Wedding Ring by Mack's Lure was the ticket. Match the hatch.

Nothing like throwing a Curve Ball into Thanksgiving. They emptied the bowl.

How was it? What’s the sauce?
With the Holiday Shopping Season starting, I wanted to share a few of my favorite products. These are products I have used for years and are part of my daily kayak fishing routine.
1. Kokatat SuperNova (Goretex) or Hydrus Angler Dry Suit (if you're local both Outdoor Emporium & Sportco have a 20% off sale starting Friday.) Be sure to try one on at the store

2. Shelta Hats - Seahawk : The best sun hat (and rain) that I've found on the market. Their patented "no-flop" brim won't flip up in the wind. Stylish and comfortable, I've always got one protecting my noggin!

3. NRS Boundary Boots - I get asked all the time about what neoprene boots I wear. I like a boot over a bootie because I wade in the water to put my MirageDrive in. These are great for keeping warm but light enough to be elevated on pedals all day. **When wearing a dry suit you'll want to go one size up from your shoe size.

4. Boomerang SNIP Fishing Line Cutter - These are great to clip on to your PFD instead of trying to find a pair of pliers or a knife in the kayak. They cut braid and mono like butter. (Outdoor Emporium and Sportco stock them locally) www.boomerangtool.com/products/the-original-snip-fishing-line-cutter
5. YakGear Rod Tube Extenders - Hobie has two rod tube holders behind you but they sit low to the boat and rods don't sit right in them. Add a couple of these extenders (note the hole goes all the way through for long butted rods) for securing your rods better yakgear.com/product/yakgear-rod-holder-extender-kit/
6. Humminbird Fish Finder - I have a tough time functioning on the water without a fish finder. It gives me the data I need to find fish, drop offs, structure, trolling speed and water temperature. Which is the best one? Go the biggest you can afford and see the icons. I run the Helix 9 which also has sidescan. The ability to see schools of crappie or single fish 100 ft to the left and right of the kayak is deadly. Power it with a Dakota Lithium Batteries which are half the weight of a traditional SLA battery. Both available through Outdoor Emporium & Sportco. humminbird.johnsonoutdoors.com/fish-finders/helix/helix-9-chirp-mega-si-gps-g4n
7. Make sure you own a good Ultra Light fishing rod. Believe me, it's a lot more fun fighting fish big and small on an UL with 4 lb test. Let the rod do the work for you and you'll be amazed. St. Croix Rods has been around for years and based in the midwest. Their Panfish Series rods are my favorite stcroixrods.com/collections/rods/products/panfish-new-2022-models?_pos=1&_sid=d3678a459&_ss=r
Have a great holiday! Hope to see you on the water!
