The Season 2.10...Top Dog

Fitz Cahall of The Dirtbag Diaries fame, and Bryan Smith, are the creators of The Season, a 22-episode, web-television show.

Fly fishing, steelhead, the Klamath River and Ryan Peterson are the subjects of their latest episode.

The Ghost Run exists. Top Dog proved it. The pictures taped to wall of the Salmon River outpost are worth a thousand words. With the rising water from recent snow and rain, the fish are moving up river and Ryan goes to work floating and fishing the Klamath River and its tributaries. It's said that steelhead are the fish of a thousand casts, but on a river that has felt the hand of man so powerfully -- through dams, agriculture and overfishing -- it might just take a few more casts.

The quote from Michalak is a classic.

I love that it didn't show Ryan catching fish like it is the easiest thing in the world... I personally have never caught a steelhead, but it will be a shame if that run of wild fish disappears before I get a chance to fish there with my daughter...
