I awoke with a familiar delirium. Knowing what was to come, 4 AM could not arrive soon enough. But it still took me a few moments to wipe the cobwebs from my brain. Yes, I realized, I was still at Jurassic Lake. No, this was not a dream. I pulled […]

Several v-shaped wakes of ferocious silver salmon competing for a stripped topwater fly in a back eddy. A sow grizzly and two cubs arriving on the […]
