Destination Unknown Sequel: Hope That’s A City, Not An Instruction From The Captain! - IMRAN™
Can you see the word in the center of the flight map? The word that popped up on the inflight display, Puke, made me hope it was the name of a city below me … and not an instruction from the pilot to puke!
That can be done naturally just by eating regular airline “food” on most carriers. 😀 Kidding aside, the real pronunciation is actually different I believe. Do you see how the terrain near that looks like the shadow of a jetliner? Can you guess which country that is?

This is an old music cabinet with Loewe Opta Radio, which I bought about 26 years ago in a junk shop.
Unfortunately, I have no idea what year the cabinet was made, but the radio still works!
Those citynames in the display always make me dream of traveling the world.
I tried to give the pic a look of a vintage b & w shot.
Old street sign in Eniwa, Hokkaido. You can tell it's old (not only from how faded it is) but from the names of the cities on the bottom. (The top line just says "National Route 36 is to the Right".) The bottom-left city (江別 or "Ebetsu") is correct, but the bottom-right is no longer correct (it was correct over twenty years ago). It says 広島 ("Hiroshima") when it should read 北広島 ("North Hiroshima"), which is the name of the city now. Either there wasn't enough room on the sign (it appears as if there is sufficient room) or it's an old sign no one bothered to change.
I am heading off tomorrow for Canyon, TEXAS.
Things on the agenda: Install a show with my buddy Denny, talk with Marcus Melton and his lovely students of WTAMU, see a canyon, give a talk at Vermillion Editions (look at their presses and they printed THIS for us!), perhaps conduct a zine workshop and NOT GET RAINED ON (I am looking at you, Portland).
Also, I rarely use texture in my drawings, but since I am going to TEXas, I thought TEXture was needed. YESSSSS.

This morning I'm off to my artist's residency in the Sleeping Bear Dunes. The weather forecast is just about perfect (cloudless sunny skies are boring). The car is packed: two 28 gallon totes full of film, chemistry and equipment, a suitcase full of cameras, and a few clothes. I guess I should pick up some food too.
Right. Time to encourage my ride out of her dressing gown and into the shower. See you in a few...

A series of storms feeding off of tropical moisture from the Pacific will continue to impact northern California and the Pacific Northwest through the weekend. Significant rainfall has already been reported, and more rain is on the way.
THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS REPORTS OF PONDING OF WATER ON AREA
ROADS...CAR ACCIDENTS IN SLIPPERY CONDITIONS...AND SOME ROCKS DOWN
ON FOOTHILL/MOUNTAIN ROADS. OROGRAPHIC LIFT HAS BROUGHT IMPRESSIVE
24 HOUR RAINFALL TOTALS TO THE AREA. THE FACT THAT IT IS STILL
FALL AND THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF ROOM FOR AREA RESERVOIRS TO FILL
IS A MAJOR REASON WHY THIS EVENT IS NOT CAUSING LARGE SCALE
FLOODING.

If Texas didn't exist we would have to invent it.
Where else could you find a city called Gun Barrel?
I suppose someone has to make gun barrels but why would you name the whole city after an industry?
What is your favourite city idea? How about Fishing Rod City or Garbage Bag City?

Ramblings from this Salmon River NY Steelhead Fishing Drift Boat Guide:
Holy Cow-a-bunga!!
1,000's of Salmon have entered the Salmon River NY over the last month and are spread out from the top all the way to the bottom of the Slam'n Salmon River Altmar - Pulaski NY.
-
Biggest complaint from ALL anglers presently fishing on the Salmon River NY!
1 experienced angler hooked up 30 and landed 1. This is the 1 common denominator amongst all anglers presently. Everyone is telling me, Randy, we played w/ a few and lost them all. Randy, we hooked up a lot, but could only land a couple of them. Randy, I hooked up a lot today, and only landed 1 or none.
Getting one of these fish on, is sometimes the easy part. Fighting and trying to land a big'ol powerful freight train pulling bus well keep you on your toes and hopefully not on your back! These fish are big and powerful and well put even the most experienced angler and equipment to the test. Thats why we love these Slam'n Salmon River Kings and Cohos!

Today's Fishing Tip:
Please re-read all of the below complementary fishing reports, Tips, Articles as they relate to Salmon. They all have relevant info. that is still pertinent now :)
-
Crystal Ball Fishing Forecast:
We will continue to see many more 1,000's of Salmon enter, run, spread out and hold in the Salmon River NY. These #'s well increase the closer we get to Oct. and after.
(After 30 years of guiding, things never reeeeelly change that much :)
-
From the Row'rs Seat:
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Wed. Thurs., off the drift boat I counted over 200 in 1 area, next spot 50, then a couple, then 5-6, then 1 or 2, then another 100 and then approx. 75 or so in the last spot, etc... etc... over 3 miles of River.
Some of these were packed in like sardines. You could have walked across there back's (seriously) Most were sprinkled about in all the usual places over our 3 mile drift boat trip. Not many anglers out mid-week, (this well all change starting today) we fished all by ourselves all day. In 3 spots fished we could not see a single other angler fishing the River :)
I'd highly recommend to come up and fish.
-
Up river presently, there are a few here and there, trickling up into the temporary transitional resting spots. More are in the prime transitional holding waters. And as usual for this time of year, most are in the "prime non-transitional holding area's.
Transitional resting - some here and there sprinkled about everyday running.
Prime transitional holding - Im seeing more fish in these, mid-day, everyday.
Prime non-transitional holding - Most of the Salmon are in these, along with most of the anglers. (Nice complementary guide article and guide tip's below on this type of habitat)
If you dont like crowds over the next few weeks, avoid these easily accessible Prime non-transitional holding spots. Instead, go for a lil walk up or down the river from these area's and you'll be pleasantly surprised at all the fish you will have all to yourself. Thats how I do it, sshhh :)
-
Guide Humor and lil Tip:
When I see these, easily accessible Prime non-transitional holding spots loaded up with fish and anglers. I sometimes think that maybe some fishing folks think these fish are air lifted by a helicopter in a BIG net and then dropped into these places.
They actually have to run from the bottom of the river to the top. They use the depth of water and current to navigate there way up river. So by going for a lil walk above or below these popular and crowded area's during "prime time" and finding there route and resting locations.
You can have a reeeeeel nice fishing time all by yourself on even the busiest day up here. Thats how I do it :)
-
I sincerely hope this helps you to understand the movement of fish a lil better and hopefully catch'a bunch!
-
These fish are BIG!
On a funny net note - Up here, if you fish here long enouph, you will see anglers useing a small net. The netter usually takes 20 swipes at the fish before they get it into the net and thats ONLY if they dont fall in the water while trying. (sound familiar?)
Then, the nets are soooo small and our fish are sooooo big, that normally they can only fit the head of the fish in the net.
Then, sometimes the fish will break the mess netting and fall completely thru it back into the water, losing it and then you get to listen to the angler curse out his fishing buddy for -------- it all up (this site is rated pg ;)
Or, what I find even funnier is when they do finally scoop up that fish and are as proud as a peacock, due to the weight of the fish, the net handle breaks in two.
Never a dull moment on this river!

On a funny note from last week:
My celebrity guest new ever pebble in the river. I anchored in a spot called the - hole. My friend didn't know about it so I figured I'd explain it to him and why it was such a nice lil hole. See that long stretch of rapids below us? Those fish get tired running those rapids and this is the first spot they come to, to rest. The hole is the first current break. See all those BIG boulders above this hole breaking the current? Thats your second current break. I then rowed over to the hole so we could take a peek into it, to see how many Salmon were in it. Would you believe we didn't see one!
I had to chuckle to myself after I just went thru how good this lil hole was. Guess its like a box of chocolates out there sometimes ;)

Salmon Q. Mail Bag:
HI Randy: Carl and I are scheduled to fish with you on Sept 18th, and we wanted to get some tippet to fish the day after guiding with you ahead of time. What tippet would you suggest. Thanks! Steve
-
HI Steve,
Great Question and one that I find many angler's don't fully understand and or understand the incredible importance of it all. It took me many years to understand and "implement with success" all of the below. One of the simplest part's of rigging can sometimes be the most overlooked (important) which can easily cause no fish or very few. :) The average angler never ever realizes this because they do not see what the fish are doing under the water. Or, they never experiment (like I have) when they are ON fish or have a presence of fish to determine the correct answer. I've written many times about this subject due to the importance of it all.
You can use mono or floro. I normally use mono for Salmon and Floro. for Steel.
Mono tippet- leader www.andemonofilament.com 8, 10, 12 and 15. Pound test used is determined by many factors. Since I like to be prepared for any and all variables or factors, I like to carry all of these pound test's. :) If I knew exactly where you were going to fish, the speed, depth, clarity of water, # of fish present, major run, lil run or just the odd fish here and there, weather, education level of fish during all hours of the day, # of anglers fishing around you, etc.. I would know better what pound test to recommend to you. Since I dont and you may not either than I'd get a lil of all.
Floro. www.seaguar.com/ - I like Seaguar Grand Max (expensive, but worth every penny concerning Steelhead) in the same pound test.
Most anglers dont realize all of the factors I use to determine the proper pd. test. We can go into this much further on our day out to simplify it all. :)
Being off by just a few pound's or MUCH less can make a BIG difference. Believe or not. :)
****Anytime you can disguise what your fly/bait or lure is tied too, any species of fish, anywhere in the world, the fish are normally easier to fool and catch. This can be done in many ways. But first, I ask myself about 10 questions to determine tippet (leader) strength. By this one single incorrect or correct determining factor it could mean no fish, 1 fish or a dozen fish. :)******
Thanks, Randy

Testimonials and Client Fishing Report:
Randy Just wanted to thank you again for the trip last monday. My brother and I had a great time! Also today I decided to drive 4 hours to fish 6 and drive 4 hours back home (which I guess makes me half crazy) LOL .Anyway I went back to the the second spot you showed us where you said we should find at least 8-10 fish and we ended up hooking into more.I fished it from the other side though which was easier to land the fish because of the slow water but not as easy to get a good drift. First cast of the morning I caught about a 5lb Brown Trout. After that I ended up hooking into 13 salmon in just 1 1/2 hours ! 12 lb mono and size 8 red estaz did the trick. I knew going into the spot I would be successful in playing w/at least a few fish.With the limited time I had today It was great to have a spot to go to where "I could get a few fish fast" (as you suggested) first thing and then I had some time left to spend finding new spots to fish with rest of the day and ended up hooking 3 more salmon as well.
Thanks Again
Bob

Dear Randy,
John and I would like to thank you for a wonderful day of fishing. As new salmon anglers, we were taught the basics. The number of fish hooked and landed was just incredible, and lots of fun. I didn't realize how hard these fish fight and how difficult it is to land them. We'll be back next year.
Thanks again, Joe
-
Hello All,
It was my pleasure and I could not be happier that the fish gods smiled upon us and you all enjoyed the great fishing and learn'n some new spots, techniques, etc.... Congrats again on a fine day on the water, with many more consistently productive ones to come, Randy
