Here are a few of the stories about the Calhoun and Clemson family members whose legacy is Clemson University.
John C. Calhoun — Calhoun moved to what is now called the city of Clemson in 1825 — and the blueprint for the region was forever changed. During his lifetime, Calhoun served in the S.C. Legislature, the U.S. Congress and the Cabinet. He twice served as U.S. vice president, under John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson. It was Calhoun's estate that ultimately became Clemson University, after Mrs. Calhoun left it to daughter Anna Maria, who then left it to her husband, Thomas Green Clemson.
Floride Bonneau Colhoun Calhoun — A strong, self-assured woman, Floride managed the estate duties of the Calhoun family plantation when she and her husband came back to South Carolina after he resigned as vice president. She willed the Fort Hill estate to her only living daughter, Anna Maria Calhoun Clemson.
Anna Maria Calhoun Clemson — Graceful and interested in politics, Anna Maria married Thomas G. Clemson at age 21. Upon her death, it was her wish that her husband preserve her father's house and use the land for a state agricultural college.

Thomas G. Clemson — Recognized as the father of this extended family, Clemson had a great impact on our country's politics, serving as an ambassador to Belgium under four U.S. presidents and then as the first secretary of agriculture. It was after Clemson married into the Calhoun family when his true interests in agriculture grew, and together with his wife, Anna, he began planning his vision for the creation of a "high seminary of learning." Upon his death in 1888, he left his estate and his fortune for the betterment of education in South Carolina.
Floride Elizabeth Clemson Lee — Anna and Thomas' daughter, Floride was a talented poet. Her wartime diary (1863-1866) was published as "A Rebel Came Home."
Floride Isabella Lee Calhoun — The only grandchild of Thomas and Anna Clemson, Floride inherited her family's love of music and poetry. Her composition "The Hills of Home" was put to music by Oscar J. Fox and published by Carl Fischer Inc. in 1925. Her youngest son's child is the only great-great-grandchild of Thomas and Anna Clemson.

NARRATOR: In this case, you'll see four magazines featuring O'Keeffe. They range from 1960 to 1968. As portraits of an artist, the photographs here are extremely different from the ones we saw earlier.BARBARA HASKELL: Beginning in 1929, as O'Keeffe began to essentially reassert her own independence. She realized that the perception of herself through Stieglitz 's photographs as a sexual being was detrimental to the critical reading of her work, and she began to reframe her public persona.NARRATOR: By the 1960s, that transformation was complete. She had carefully crafted her image as a solitary, independent artist, identified with the landscape of the American west. These magazine spreads bear witness to her transformation into an American icon. She had achieved a level of fame and celebrity achieved by few artists.

Jury reaches mixed verdict in Philly priest sex abuse trial
William Lynn guilty of endangering welfare of children, acquitted of 2 other charges
PHILADELPHIA - A Roman Catholic church official has been convicted of child endangerment but acquitted of conspiracy in a groundbreaking clergy abuse trial in Philadelphia.
Monsignor William Lynn is the first U.S. church official convicted of a crime for how he handled sex abuse accusations.
Lynn has been on leave from the church since his arrest last year. The criminal case stems from his long stint as secretary for clergy from 1992 to 2004, mostly under the late Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua.
Defense lawyers said he tried to document the claims, get priests into treatment and alert his bishop to problem priests. Lynn says the cardinal was the ultimate authority on what happened to the priests.
Prosecutors argued that he could have called police or quit the job if efforts to help victims were being stymied.
The jury was unable to bring a verdict against co-defendant Rev. James Brennan, who was charged with attempted rape of a 14-year-old altar boy and endangering the welfare of a child.
The trial marked the first time that U.S. prosecutors charged not just priests who allegedly committed abuses, but also church leaders for failing to stop them.
Removed from the active ministry in 2006, he admitted two years later that he had allowed the youngster to view pornography and sleep in the same bed with him in 1996, according to church investigators' testimony.
Defrocked priest Edward Avery had been due to go on trial with Brennan and Lynn, but he pleaded guilty in March after admitting he sexually assaulted a 10-year-old altar boy during the 1998-1999 school year.
The 69-year-old was sentenced to 2½ to five years in prison.
On Wednesday, the jury reported that it was unable to reach a verdict on four of five charges in the high-profile case. Common Pleas Court Judge M. Teresa Sarmina ordered jurors to keep deliberating, according to a source with direct knowledge of the case.
Lynn's conspiracy count relates to an allegation that he schemed with Avery and other archdiocese officials to endanger children.
More than 60 witnesses and alleged clergy abuse victims testified during Lynn and Brennan's criminal trial, which began on March 26 and wrapped up May 31, with jury deliberations beginning the next day.
Lynn's defense team argued their client repeatedly told higher-ups about the alleged abuse and, under strict orders from late Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua, had no authority to remove priests from the ministry.
Assistant District Attorney Patrick Blessington characterized Lynn's behavior as "disgraceful," "shameful" and "ridiculous," sarcastically calling him a "hero" who put young people in harm's way.
"He actually looked you in the eye and said he put victims first. How dare he?" the prosecutor asked jurors during his more than 2½-hour closing argument.

Funny it seems that things happen in groups. They say that bad things happen in groups of three… well I think good things happen in greater numbers.
After talking with Nick last weekend, it seems that my Scouting World has just been getting bigger and better.
I have met some new Scouters and have had an more and more opportunities open up.
Tuesday night I made an attempt at opening up the lines and did call in show using Skype. A couple Scouting friends from Wisconsin, Minnesota, and California, joined me for a lengthy conversation on their Scouting worlds. It is nice to compare programs, operations, and just what makes our Scout units tick.
The show went longer than normal…but how can you turn it off once you get into a great talk…
Good things do come in bunches.. and Scouting gives us many opportunities to participate in those good things, even just talking with good Scouting friends.
Check out the show and all the other shows at the Scoutmaster Minute Podcast.
Have a Great Scouting Day!

No, Seriously, This Guy Is Holding A "You Deserve Rape" Sign
UPDATE: The "open air preacher" holding the sign has responded to online criticism. In case that wasn't enough, sign creator "Brother Dean Samuel's" Twitter feed confirms his somewhat misogynistic ideology. (via the Arizona Daily Wildcat)
A University of Arizona student sparked outrage Tuesday by holding up a sign reading, "You Deserve Rape" and preaching that women who dress like "whores" bring rape upon themselves in protest to a sexual assault awareness event being held that night.
Dean Saxton, a junior who regularly preaches on the University of Arizona campus under the name "Brother Dean Samuel," told the Arizona Daily Wildcat that "his sermon was meant to convey that 'if you dress like a whore, act like a whore, you're probably going to get raped.'" Saxton decided to make the sign and deliver his sermon on Tuesday in opposition to a "Take Back the Night" event planned for Tuesday night and because April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
"I think that girls that dress and act like it," Saxton told the Daily Wildcat, "they should realize that they do have partial responsibility, because I believe that they're pretty much asking for it."
Despite widespread anger from students and faculty, the university's administration did not remove Saxton or his sign. In response to a request for comment, Kendal Washington White, interim dean of students, said, "We find [Saxton's actions] to be vulgar and vile. However, it is protected speech. He has yet to, at this point, violate the student code of conduct."
3. The student preacher posted a picture of Wednesday's Daily Wildcat to his Twitter account.
Front page!!!! http://t.co/yhoFFmsHQc— Dean saxton
4. He also retweeted this picture of himself in action from a "Sorostitute" who appears to support his controversial stance.
Ayyyy @brodeanIV rape me #please 🙠http://t.co/TpjOlo5nt5— Sorostitutes Inc.
5. Saxton tweeted pictures of a female student's letter to the editor criticizing the paper's coverage of the protest and commented on her support of the "Take Back the Night" rally.

The Daily Wildcat published an editorial on Wednesday explaining their decision to report the story.
9. An examination of Saxton's Twitter feed reveals more of his somewhat controversial beliefs.
A good question for your first date http://t.co/hZ2ruiwQ53— Dean saxton

14. Saxton posted a video of Tuesday's "You Deserve Rape" sermon on his YouTube page.
16. Update - April 26, 2013, 6:00 p.m.: Dean Saxton has posted an update on his blog in response to the online criticism.
From Saxton's blog, Open Air Preaching with Brother Dean:
It was a completely normal day, nothing out of the ordinary I just going to the campus to preach all the normal procedure for me as a Christian preacher of righteous. Sinless Sarah and I brought two signs that were dealing with the rape and modesty issues on the campus. Nothing extreme, just truth and love. So I brought out this mild sign that read "YOU DESEVRE RAPE" and I mounted my voice (which because of free speech is protected) and my face in such a way in order to set it against the ungodly, against the feminists, against the rapists at the University of Arizona.
As soon as I took out the sign and began to dialogue the faces of the immodest vixens, and common whores started to get riled up. I challenged these girls to cover up in the Wild Wild West, because there a rapist here. There are actually many, they are called Frat boys. The Greek life at the U of A has had many hazing problems with Greek life here and it comes as no surprise from a club dedicated to the party lifestyle. These Greeks on campus are life in such whoredoms with almost anything that moves. But it's not just Greek life, it's the porn freak's, and the masturbating community on campus. But these girls aren't helping, guys are visual and they need to put some clothes on!
Too many girls wear these SEX shorts, that make them look like whores. If you act like a whore, dress a like a whore then don't get mad when you get treated like a whore. Feminists, fat lesbians, and whores get raped, abused, and mistreated. You judge a tree by its fruit, I'm a normal college guy calling you my fellow college students out! You need to repent, change! Or you will go to hell forever, this life is finite, please change…or face the consequences.
First this chubby woman threw her Ipad to the ground, wrapped her thick whale arms around me. While in her choke hold she didn't realize her intolerance was showing, her femi-nazi was showing. She was just another lousy nagging woman trying to use force to change me…but she is a woman and the weaker vessel. Then this cave man came up reached for my shirt, and ripped some of it. THEN this huge football player approached and hit the sign out my hands and what acting in a way that made feel like I wasn't going to survive for very long. The hecklars made several signs, josh Solomon made a sign that read "you deserve Grape" and there was a huge banner of Jimmy Hendricks. Which the satanic signs were obviously of the devil and were showing how bad and evil this university really. The hecklers got in front of me and cheered as they tried to steal my crowd as much as they could.

As we reflect on the 10th anniversary of 9/11, it is hard to believe that a decade has passed. With the vivid images of that day etched in our memories, it seems like yesterday.

Micronutrients to Prevent Noise-induced Hearing Loss

- How to Read a Study Record
Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a significant clinical, social, and economic issue. Studies in animals have allowed us to identify mechanisms contributing to NIHL, including direct mechanical trauma, free radicals formed in association with metabolic stress, and reduced blood flow. A combination of antioxidant vitamins (beta-carotene, and vitamins C and E) and the mineral magnesium (which acts in part as a vasodilator but also as an antioxidant) is highly effective in preventing NIHL in animals. These studies evaluate efficacy of this intervention in humans.
Hypothesis: Treatment with these micronutrients provides safe, effective attenuation of acute hearing changes induced by exposure to real-world sounds producing temporary (non-permanent) or permanent hearing changes induced by exposure to real-world sounds.
Experiment 1: "Digital Audio Player" studies (University of Florida, Gainesville). Prevention of *temporary* elevations in hearing thresholds, induced by exposure to moderately loud music, will be measured. Subjects will be 70 young adults with equal numbers of male and female participants.
Experiment 2: "Urban warfare" military studies (Karolinska Institutet, Sweden). Prevention of *temporary* elevations in hearing thresholds, induced by automatic gunfire sound inside a concrete bunker, will be measured. Subjects will be 31 adult male or female officers in the Swedish army required to participate in urban combat training regardless of study participation. All subjects are required to wear standard hearing protection during combat exercises.

Sisters and DANNIJO cofounders Jodie and Danielle Snyder, whose combined names form the brands moniker, fell in love with accessory design years before they even considered starting their own label. Growing up in Jacksonville, FL, they used the tools in their cardiologist father's medical kit to craft necklaces, bracelets and earrings at an early age. After revisiting this shared childhood passion after college and creating a well-received capsule line of jewelry for the Africa-focused nonprofit L.W.A.L.A. (Live With A Lifelong Ambition), the two were inspired to launch their first official collection in 2008. Thanks to the instant and overwhelming success of DANNIJO collar necklaces and statement earrings, the collection rapidly grew to include handbags, shoes, and phone cases.

Dragons are creatures with nearly unlimited life spans. They can survive for long periods of time, and no one has found a dragon that has died of old age. Adolescence is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling's wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. Once they hit adolescence, hatchlings change quickly, maturing to their full forms in only 2 years.
Dragons don't communicate with each other verbally, but they will growl to scare off predators and frighten prey. Young dragons will emit an extremely high-pitched squeal when they are frightened. To communicate, they use telepathy with each other and to speak to other creatures.
Two-Finned Blunas are a very social breed of dragon, living in packs of dragons called "pods." Blunas are very curious and playful creatures and several dragons in a pod will often "play" with one other, chasing each other around, tossing seaweed back and forth, and riding ocean swells. They are occasionally seen swimming alongside whales and dolphins.

We ask four local creatives how music influences and inspires their lives.
"Without music life would be a mistake," wrote Nietzsche in 1888, a concept that still holds true for many creatives. Music reaches into most creative disciplines, inspiring and influencing designers, artists and writers, and affecting people in ways that film or literature can't; whether it's the actual sound or the image of a performer.
Haruki Murakami's novels are influenced by music - heavily so by The Beatles - while Bret Easton Ellis peppers his books with references to music and pop culture. Think of Less Than Zero (an Elvis Costello song), or entire chapters of American Psycho dedicated to musicians like Whitney Houston, Genesis and Huey Lewis and The News. In art music abounds too: photographers like David LaChapelle, Ryan McGinley, Pennie Smith and Mick Rock have become famous for shooting musicians, while an upcoming exhibition at the Auckland Art Gallery, titled Who Shot Rock & Roll, looks at those who have photographed rock 'n' roll and its visual identity.
The relationship between fashion and music is a complicated one, often based on the image of a singer or band rather than the sound. Musicians inspire designers, designers dress musicians, musicians become designers.
Consider Kathryn Wilson's disco-inspired heel, named Kimbra, after the Kiwi girl-done-good overseas, or Twenty-seven Names' "Thug Life" sweater for next season (the Wellington label is often inspired by music, namely hip-hop).
Fashion can feed off and often helps further define a musical movement: punk, new romantic, disco, hip-hop.
"Rock chic" is still probably the most pervasive musically influenced fashion trend, as seen, again, in the new collection from Saint Laurent Paris - designed by one of fashion's most famous music fans, Hedi Slimane.
The designer is known for his super-skinny silhouette seemingly perfect for super-skinny rock stars.
Slimane's longstanding mantra has been "Fashion = music + youth + sex", and his musical infatuation runs deep. He told Style.com that there is no fashion without music.
At his previous role at Dior Homme, he commissioned original soundtracks for runway shows, and he told the Guardian that he could have a whole show in his head after listening to one song.
After retiring from design, he moved into photography, often with rock stars as subjects, while his recent return to the runway with Saint Laurent showcased his love of music too, with Daft Punk soundtracking the show and the runway lighted as though it was a concert.
Brit musician Jarvis Cocker is not a fan of Slimane's - and fashion's- habit of exploiting music for ideas.
"The thing I like about music is that people make it up for themselves, and that extends to what they look like as well. So it's a very personal thing.
"Then someone comes along and goes, 'oh, yeah, skinny trousers, de-de-de-de, that'll be £800, please'," Cocker says.
Jean-Paul Gaultier, who famously put Madonna in that cone bra and, perhaps less famously, released a song in 1988 called How To Do That, pushed the musical agenda at his recent Paris Fashion Week show.
His show notes explained it as a "homage to all the pop stars of the 80s who have influenced fashion and my fashion with their look", with models dressed as Sade, Annie Lennox, Boy George, Michael Jackson, Abba, David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust, Grace Jones and, yes, Madonna.
Music's impact on local artistic types may be a little less blatant than Gaultier's gloriously cheesy homage, but for many the influence is still strong.
We spoke to four creatives to discover how music affects all aspects of their lives.
Music is huge in the New York studio of New Zealand artist Max Gimblett, whether it be Tibetan chanting, Johnny Cash or Philip Glass.
"Music is a key component of my work process in the studio," says Gimblett.
"I compose my paintings, drawings, calligraphies and books to music. I may do black sumi ink calligraphies on Thai Garden Smooth paper to Bach, Philip Glass or chanting from Tibet or India. All this makes a difference to the treatment as the music enters the pieces, seriously affecting, the content."
Opera and classical music are favourites, as well as jazz, spiritual/new age soundscape CDs - "lots of bells, gongs, chanting" - and compilation albums of popular songs in New Zealand each year. Gimblett's personal favourites include Johnny Cash, Miles Davis, Bach, Beethoven and Vivaldi, with a circulating disc-player of 300 in the studio that includes everything from Steven Halpern's Chakra Suite ("Music for meditation, healing and inner peace") to Enya's Shepherd Moons, Stan Richardson's Shakuhachi Meditation Music ("Traditional Japanese flute for zen contemplation") to Na Mele Hawaii ("A Rediscovery of Hawaiian Vocal Music"). Studio manager Matt Jones' taste is more "aggressive-metal style", which he plays at his desk rather than streamed through the studio, "as I'm pretty sure it would drive everyone else mad". But Gimblett believes that variety of sound is important.
"As we have four people working here on any given day, three permanent staff and an intern, the music serves to buffer emotions and offer different private spaces for the work to go forward in. The busy noisy Bowery, a major artery for this city, is softened by our music and at times completely drowned out."
"Music is at my centre," says Gimblett.
"It is non-verbal, it is importantly silent as it loops through the days and nights in here; sometimes one piece stays on the entire day, creating a constant."
Designer of Jimmy D and co-owner of Children of Vision boutique
Music inspires several aspects of James Dobson's world, whether designing for his label Jimmy D, deciding what to play at his boutique Children of Vision, or having stars shop in his store. Once, Canadian singer Peaches came in, and Dobson remembers her "trying on loads of outfits and dancing in front of our fan so she could see what they'd do on stage with her wind machine. It was definitely a pinch-myself moment."
With his own design, music plays a big role, whether it be inspiration for design or in the workroom.
"For me the design process is always a melting pot of various inspirations and there is always some musical aspect in the mix - whether it's simply an album I played on repeat while I was working on it, or a musical movement that formed a more pivotal point of inspiration such as AW11's black metal-inspired collection. I use music as a way of tying a collection into a particular time - my neon scratch print from SS08 was inspired by new rave or as a way of exploring sub-cultures," explains Dobson, who helped run a new ravey club night around this period called Time to get Dumb.
The black metal-inspired collection of 2011 featured a print in collaboration with local artist Andrew McLeod, who Dobson discovered through the printed band T-shirts that McLeod made for his various bands.
"What intrigued me about black metal was the intensity of it, the aesthetic codes of it all and yet how anti-fashion it is - there are very few musical movements that have such ferocity about them now," says Dobson.
"For that collection I took the iconic 'metal' tee and recontextualised it, making it ridiculously oversized, and re-imagining it in digitally printed silk."
Show music is another key aspect for Dobson, with soundtracks that the audience tend to love or hate.
"Quite often when I'm working on a collection I'll obsess over a few songs that I can imagine forming the soundtrack to a show and when I listen to them I can visualise the whole scenario, I can see outfits in motion and it can even pre-empt new designs by simply imagining what the next outfit out would be."
He works with his partner and stylist Chris Lorimer on show soundtracks.
"For me the music is an integral way of reinforcing the themes and inspirations of the collection, taking the viewers on a little journey and I'm not afraid of music that might make you feel a little uncomfortable - one season a reviewer said 'the music at the Jimmy D show was horrendous. It sounded like the soundtrack to the latest Saw movie.' Which I kind of loved - you don't want the fashion equivalent of dinner party music at a show."
"Being a child of the 80s, music plays a big part of my artistic practice," explains artist Sam Mitchell.
"It often physically becomes part of my work in either the use of song lyrics randomly placed throughout, or it becomes the title of the work. Sometimes, like in David Bowie's case, it becomes the actual subject matter." Mitchell's Ziggy Stardust series features David Bowie, "a man of a thousand faces", in various incarnations.
"He was my first crush," says Mitchell. "It amazed me when looking at images of Bowie how his style changed throughout his career. From his pre-teen Laughing Gnome 1950s style, to a long-haired guitar-strumming hippie to Ziggy Stardust alien sex object, then Diamond Dogs rock 'n' roll, blond, new romantic, suit-wearing Let's Dance to duos with Mick, Tina and Freddie. Then on to David Lynch soundtracks and drum 'n' bass ... He has tasted all that music could offer and has also changed how music is and can be made."
Music also has a less literal influence on Mitchell's work, playing in the background when working in her studio.
"I need the distraction. Music allows me to work intuitively and having music as a background noise stops the self-edits and the inner voice that questions why you are putting green next to orange ... why that image? ... It distracts the hypercritical mind and allows a free-flow effect to happen. Too much coffee can also have this effect." Her playlist can range from Crowded House to Ice House, Patti Smith to Rod Stewart, The Specials to The xx. "The bulk of my iPod really is 80s music that reflects my nights dancing in Auckland at The Box and Alfies." Away from work, Mitchell listens to National Radio's Music 101 show, and the Sampler by Nick Bollinger, and will regularly attend live performances by the NZ Symphony Orchestra. "My partner is really into classical music and that has rubbed off on me.
"The last "live" band I saw was The Cure when they played at Vector Arena. Shows my age, I guess ..."
Menswear designer at Zambesi
"Music provides food for your soul," says Dayne Johnston, menswear designer at Zambesi. The fashion house sends out frequent e-newsletters to customers, always featuring a song lyric - the most recent was Bjork's Come to Me - and they are known for their brilliant show soundtracks, including local band Pluto playing live on stage at the St James (2005), the Jaws soundtrack (2006) and The Knife's frenetic Silent Shout last year.
Zambesi founders Elizabeth and Neville Findlay's daughter Sophie is the music director for the label, with a broad knowledge of most things musical, and often the one who comes up with the song lyrics for the newsletters too.
But Johnston says the entire Zambesi design team are constantly influenced by music. "We like how it has the ability to take you on a journey and how it affects moods and memories," he says. "I work a lot of the time with my iPod on; it seems to motivate me and gives me a bubble to work in." He currently has The xx's new album Coexist on repeat.

|Ocean Flyfishing for Salmon Perhaps the most under-rated fishery in the world
|Topic Review (Newest First)
Thanks everyone for the advice. I'll see what I can do this fall.
The advice you've been given with regard to one-handers in the 9' 10 wt. class is spot on. Given your location I assume your intent is to fish the coast, e.g., Elk, Sixes, Coquille, etc? To add to the line recommendations that have already been made, you'll see that a lot of guys are successful with clear intermediate lines in the smaller estuary situations. Out of a boat, casting distance is not generally going to be as much of an issue as you might imagine. As such, I would not recommend Rio Slick Shooter for runing line; instead, using a bulkier running line that is less prone to tangle--like the standard Rio shooting lines in .30" or even .035"--is a better way to go. You lose some casting distance, but the improved line handling characteristics are worth the trade. You're also going to find that most who are successful use small, sparse comet type flies in various colors rather than large baitfish patterns--water clarity and the nature of the spots most effectively fished with a fly being a large part of the reasoning there.
One point about two-handed rods to remember is that the longer the length the more ineffecient the tool for fighting fish, and longer rods can make catch-and-release an excercise in futility. A 14' rod can be a death sentence for salmon the size of the average fall chinook on many of the rivers of the South Coast. If you're thinking two-handers, give Bob Meiser a call for recommendations. He's going to recommend something shorter than 14' and heavier than 9/10, though, and he's right given the need to make the fight as quick as possible with these fish.
There's a huge difference between ocean bright chinook fresh in from the salt--or still in the brackish waters of a bay or estuary--than a lot of what you see being caught on fly fishing shows and the like that has already colored. The guys that tell you an 8 wt. is enough rod are experienced in terms of the latter. A bright fish, even without much current, will leave you with a handful of graphite splinters if you target them with something that small. No kidding. I've had big, bright fish in current wreak havoc on even quality tackle. And, when you get into fish in the 40-50 lb. range--which is not as rare as you might imagine--even the 12 wt. mentioned is not out of line.
My personal favorite rod for fishing fall chinook is a 1090 RPLXi, but just about any good quality 10 wt. will fit the bill. I have a 10100 RPL+ that is nice for fishing from the bank, but it's a little long to handle in the boat when it comes time to land a fish. I have fished with two-handers for salmon a little, maybe a dozen or more days in the last couple years, and have not found one yet that I really like for fall chinook specifically. Just as an example, my T&T 1409, which I like for larger water winter steelhead, chum, and coho and the like, is really not enough rod for fresh chinook, in my opinion. Shorter and heavier, like Meiser recommends, would be better.
Anyway, hope that helps some. The rewards can be pretty great with chinook. The projected runs don't look good this year, but then you never know. Good luck.
I have a number of chinook days under the belt from 12 yrs in the Seattle area... and I would say there are three options:
1 - estuaries from a boat with a single hander... 9wt minimum, 10wt better
2 - tidewater with a two-hander... 14ft 9/10wt or better
3 - beaches with a two-hander... I would think the Atlantis is as good a rod as any for that task
In your case it seems a good solid stick like the ones Philster and others suggest would do the deed.
Shooting heads...
The new Outbounds come to mind. They come in a range of sizes. For kings off a boat I might go with a slick shooter running line looped to hi-density heads biting deep into tide rips with flashy herring patterns with a streak of purple and big eyes. It would cast like the dickens too.
A stripping basket is key. Check out Russell Chatham's book... he's done some serious damage in the estuaries.
Keep us posted... I miss having the chinookie on the side of my steelie obsession.
|Not all Chinook are created equal. Is a big one #15? #20? #30? More ? One of my best pruchases was a 2 piece Sage Discovery II 12 wt many many years ago for about $120. It has caught a number of #30 pound fish and seems indescructible. for smaller fish I use a 9.5 foot scott STS 10 wt. It too has been a great performer and was also a closeout. So, I guess my answer is it depends on the size of the fish with a 10 wt being a good starting point. For a rod you aren't going to use much, I wouldn't hesitate to get a TFO or something similar in the $139 to $180 range and a unconditional warranty.
|Leland Miyawaki
I don't have any suggestions. The only chinook I have caught have been while targeting coho and have been on my surface fly. Maybe someone else can help.
Looking for Advice on Fly Gear for Fall Chinook
I've been wanting to go after Chinook in the fall with a fly rod for quite some time. I've been saving up to buy an outfit just for chinook. I'm open to suggestions as though money was not an option. I'll be fishing freshwater and estuaries along the coast out of my boat. I'm thinking of using a shooting head setup. What are your recommendations for lines/heads out there and shooting line, rods, and reels? Any advice is welcome. Thanks.

Yields about 1-1/2 lb.
This recipe makes more barbecued pork than you need for the Steamed Pork Buns, but that's a good thing because it's a delicious, versatile ingredient to have on hand. Freeze what's left to make another batch of buns, or use it thinly sliced in stir-fries or diced in fried rice.
Cut the pork loin lengthwise into 4 equal strips. Using a small knife, pierce each strip 4 times to help the marinade penetrate the meat. Put the pork in a shallow bowl.
Combine the honey, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, double dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, Shaoxing, five-spice powder, 1/2 tsp. salt, and a pinch of white pepper in a small bowl and pour over the meat to coat well. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
Position a rack in the top third of the oven and heat the oven to 450°F. Line a small heavy-duty rimmed baking sheet with heavy-duty foil. Put the meat on the baking sheet and spoon some of the marinade over it. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of the pork registers 165°F, 30 to 40 minutes. During cooking, baste the meat with the juice from the pan and flip it 4 times.
Position an oven rack about 4 inches from the broiler and heat the broiler on high. Broil the pork until it's slightly charred in places, about 2 minutes.
The pork may be refrigerated for up to 5 days or frozen for up to a month.

On June 14, 2012, Bob Cole Conservatory faculty member Dr. Michael Carney passed away. We lost a colleague and a friend–a member of our family. A memorial concert will be held on Sunday, September 16th. We will celebrate Michael's legacy with current and former students playing the music he loved and brought into their lives.
Dr. Carney was Director of Percussion Studies at the Bob Cole Conservatory for thirty-one years. He taught generations of percussionists and directed the World Percussion Group, Steel Drum Orchestra, and the Drums and Drummers Project.

text: But if it is an impossible bird it should be called. When a bird angles in and is barely off the crate is tough when it's down wind. Everyone the dog was down wind of the bird he was down wind of the station. No way to get that bird unless the dog hints where he should not. I completely understand every bird will not be the same and the flyer especially. I'll take a no bird over that again all day and live with it.
