While fishing the Stilly this fall a buddy of mine was throwing his line out and it didn't come down where he had intended it to. While he was trying to figure out where in the hell it went, his reel started humming as an in flight Merganzer stripped his spool clean without missing a wing beat.

If I had to guess, the Trust will set up public access. Note that they are going to continue to selectively log the area, but there will be no further development for housing and such. I think, all things considered that this will be beneficial in the end. Mike

Weyerhaeuser tree farm sale - part 2

I sent an email to the Seattle Times reporter who wrote this morning's tree farm sale article wondering about continuing recreational access. Looks like I wasn't the only reader who was concerned. As Eric suggests, I'll contact the Conservancy with a query. I'll keep the list posted on what

Mike, No question at all that the prospective sale would be of tremendous pubic benefit. My earlier posts reflected my own selfish interests rather than the larger good such a buffer would provide to prevent further eastward sprawl. Nonetheless, I have found several terrific fishing

I fished the outgoing tide from 10-12:30 today and walked and fished about a mile of beach total but got no takers and saw no fish out and about near the surface. Beat the heck out of sitting inside all day though and is probably my last chance to get out for a while now. Tim

This might be an interesting deal to watch. If you listen to certain land rights folks, the greens are trying to block public access to all public lands. It will be a new era to see how a land trust manages 100,000 acres of land. Kent Lufkin wrote: Mike, No question at all that the
