Welcome Yaktastic.  You've got some great fisheries in you neck of the woods.  It should be fun figuring them all out.

Welcome to the site.  Finally somebody a little closer to my side of the state.  We'll need to meet up for some salmon fishing this spring.

Welcome, I share your affinity for solo sports but usually enjoy company, there are days when I just have to get out there all alone though to clear my head.
It's a great pursuit!  With or without company.
