Welcome to my site! My name is Dusty but my friends call me “Lipripper” I wanted to start this site as a place for all my fishing buddies to be able to go and share photos, information, and experiences. Over the years of fishing I have made some terrific friendships and connections with very talented and creative people involved with angling. I thought what a perfect time and opportunity to start to share some of these experiences and knowledge. Contributors to this site have a broad range of expertise in many different aspects of angling. It might surprise you to know that the range is from professional guiding, research and development of new tackle and lines, to media productions of outdoor shows. Some of us here (me)aren’t as pedigreed but have a tremendous level of ability to consistently put fish in the boat and have a terrific time taking new friends along to hook into their first!!!
The long range goal of this endeavor is to share the fun that we have amongst this group with all of you! I wanted it to be a classy site that is fun and is comprised of real anglers not wannabies trying to make a buck through add sales and donations. In doing this I also have certain personal objectives to help support local small businesses that make their lively hood around the sport of angling that I love so much. These entrepreneurs have put it all out there to try and make it doing something they love and we want to support them. It is also very important to be a part and back the conservation groups in the Northwest doing their best to protect the fisheries that we have the privilege to be able fish. With out these groups and their tireless efforts, our already damaged runs would be in conditions far worse.
So please feel free to visit us anytime and I hope that you enjoy the site!
Please support Safe For Salmon and the CCA
