This week I have the pleasure of interviewing perhaps the nicest human being on the planet, Tim Linehan of Linehan Outfitters in Libby, Montana. I think you'll get a sense of what kind of person he is by listening in. We talk about how the recent pandemic has affected fishing guides and lodges, but on a more fun note, Tim describes his fishery in northern Montana--the only place in Montana where you can catch a true native rainbow trout (rainbows on famous rivers like the Madison, Bighorn, Missouri, and Gallatin were originally stocked).

In the fly box this week, we have these tips and questions:
- An easy way to make crab eyes
- Why don't people use a piece of yarn in between blood knots as a strike indicator?
- Will a 3-weight switch rod handle streamers for smallmouths?
- What can I do to protect flies and tying materials?
- Can I use springbok hair in place of deer hair?
- Can I fish tungsten nymphs on a sinking line effectively?
- When do I set the hook when sight-nymphing for trout?
- How do you re-sharpen fly-tying scissors?
- If I test my dry flies in water and they tip over on their sides, should I still use them?
- Some further information on how chemical sharpening of hooks works
