I hear you.

Mr. trisham and I have tried fly fishing, but I lack talent. He is not so bad. :)

Let me know if you plan to be here. :)

I happen to live with wolves around me most of the time. (interior rural Alaska) I have killed close to 60 in 35 years and have weighed and necropsied probably 1200 carcasses in the past 20 years. The largest I’ve ever weighed was 123 pounds. The average Alaska wolf runs just about 98 pounds. That’s males and females together. Most individual females will be in the 70 pound class with males around 106 average. Pups of the year will weigh 40-60 by November depending on pack size and habitat.

I’ll go out on a limb here and say yes that wolf probably weiged 80 pounds but no way it was 180.
