We went on a couple of rides, one was near Elk City ID. A few days later went up to the Gospels to look at the lakes and lookout.

View attachment 15568 Just a few reds from dip netting last year.
No shrimp per say just small gray scud bugs in the lakes. We get lots of salmon, sockeye (reds) are my favorite followed by Coho (silvers) and Chinook (Kings), I throw pinks and chums back.....last year I put about 300 pounds of reds in the freezer....smoked salmon, cream cheese, and jalapeño jelly on crackers is one of my personal favorites.
When I lived in NC I kayak fished the inshore waterways a lot for specks and flounder. I trade moose meat with a buddy that lives in Homer for halibut, Alaskan spotted shrimp, and rock fish so we eat well.
I don't think I have bought any meat other then pork ribs and chicken in years.
Sockeye are the best. Remember them when we visited my aunt on Annette Island. Can’t catch one in Oregon,but I used to catch the hell out of coho !!

Well I tried to upgrade my headlights today but it was a colossal fail... I tried these LEDs off of Ebay because for $15 why not? lol They produce maybe a 1/4 of the light provided by the stock halogens.


Looks like most of the threads on here recommend JDM Astars so I'll give those a try next I think.

This summer has been extremely disappointing for rides. I went on a couple of decent ones, but nothing since. Was planning on going out on Labor Day, but we had 50+mph wind gusts and I didn't think it was safe to be in the woods. Then the fires started and it has been hell ever since. I still have under 500 miles on my 2018.

With a name like "Papermaker", I'm assuming Lewiston and he works at the mill. Was just down there last week to scrounge ammo and primers from Sportsman's Warehouse...

I assume so to, I am in Asotin, just up the river from Lewiston. So that is where all of our ammunition is going, luckily I bought a case of 9MM, and .22 in January before all of this started. Are you in Spokane?

Same here. I'm in southwestern Idaho. Same wind on labor day. Same smoke. Same year p500. Also less than 500 miles.
