What a three day weekend! This was much needed fishing time to get me through a tough work week.  With the kitchen pass open I headed out the door Thursday night for some Cowlitz River Steelhead and Springers in the Morning.  I was too anxious upon getting to the river to even think about sleeping as I saw multiple people walking out with nice steelhead caught just before I had arrived.  (Note: The Cowlitz river is open legally at night for steelhead fishing at the blue creek trout hatchery).  I quickly threw on my hip waders, grabbed my gear and set...

The warm weather has begun the kokanee craze here on the west side of Washington State.  Each year, early season kokanee are some of the most fun and easy fish to catch on our local lakes.  They stay high in the water column, and targeting them can be done without downriggers.  To me watching a top lined rod double over is absolutely awesome.  This trip was a great example of it.  I was testing the recently acquired trolling motor (works like a dream) and running two top lined rods off the side of the boat and one on the down...

What a busy week!  So excited to share this last weekend's trip.  I was finally able to get out on the water with my dad, and what a better place to travel to than Lake Chelan.  We packed up the sled for it's first trip for 2016 and first with all the new gear installed.  Big time excitement.  We got to the launch as the sun was peeking through the clouds.  I had to stop to just take it all in: The beauty of the scenery, being with my dad, new boat, and the thrill of chasing kokanee.   We...

Fresh into the start of a new week, our report takes us look back at an exciting and productive weekend here at Holy Moly Outdoors.  But before diving in too far I wanted to mention the awesome concert I got to go to last Thursday.  The Rock and Worship Roadshow was a big hit and with bands like Newsboys and Jeremy Camp.  My Brother, cousin and a few friends were all able to make it and what an awesome event to show a little Holy Moly support at. Lets dive back into our report! Last weekend was a big step towards some...
