Okay fellow anglers ... What kind of fishing related article would you like to see in the Ogden Standard-Examiner's XPLORE outdoors section? I write for them on occasion, and am always looking for ideas. Some pieces I do are serious and instructive, others are humorous and light reading. But some serious input would be appreciated.
Thanks guys and gals!

If you want to redo last weeks cover every week,the picture was so good looking you would sell millions[angelic][angelic][angelic]
how about a story on how to build a rod,how to tie a fly,how about a story on fathers teaching their sons as their fathers did for them( it just is not happening),or a story on the reasons for declining license sales, up date on the river right of way law suit we heard about a couple years ago. How about some drawings of riggings -ice fishing,fly fishing etc.
I will keep thinking of more for you.

Very funny James. How about a story about Mom's and Grandmas teaching their kids and grandkids to fish like her father did. Just kidding. I think that a good story on ice safety would be good. And a story on how the jetskis are never out as far from the bank as they are supposed to be. Maybe rules on that.

A story about guys fishing with Boogers would deffinately not be funny.
a story about no matter what the DWR does it is not right to somebody loose,loose situation.
a Story about the Fly fishing instructor at Davis High.Teaches 300 people a year to fish.
Entomolgy stories (bugs)=flies
ichtheology stories(fish)-life spans,habits,detection.

I agree with you stacy. More women need to get involved with their family and start fishing and camping. If they were to do a story on it and how much fun it is maybe more women would join in on the fun. And make it a family thing.

I've done a couple of articles over the past year or so about women & fishing / hunting. My wife loves to fish from the boat, so we go to the Gorge quite a bit.
Today's piece in XPLORE is about the KSL Radio Utah Outdoors guys; Tim Hughes & Cris Draper. They're a hoot!
Thanks for the ideas!
