Had a few hours to burn today and decided to head out to a near by trout stream for some coffee and brookies.  This stream is a tight rhodo choked stream, but has been a fun stream to fish.  Brookies were looking up and smacking dries today.

This pool absolutely pisses me off.  It's an odd ball big pool for this stream, very deep, yet I have never caught or seen anything in it in the 3 times I've fished this stream.

After bringing a few to hand I decided to make some coffee.  Broke out the dryer lint and zippo and got a small fire going.

Also saw a rusty barrel giving me a funny look. I taught it a lesson.  Heard some talks about .380's on here.  Hot .357 mag is where it's at for putting barrels in their place.

Nice. You must love your coffee.

me -There's a season?

I like a good cup of joe.  Especially on a trout stream. 

Stephen, I figured out a good way to strain the coffee without having to throw cold water in it or just drinking grounds.  I left the lid on the pot and poured slowly into cup.  Just enough gap between rim of pot and lid to let the coffee come out, but keep the grounds in the pot.  Sure beat the cup of grounds we drank last month.

I haven't had a full cup of coffee in my life. Smells good though.

Glad you got to fish Jacob.

That stream is a tease. But, hey.... 'c;

Thanks for dropping the flies off. Did you walk through the oasis?

Yes it is, but I actually enjoyed it more then last time.  You have to fish it with the expectation of catching small trout and find enjoyment in tossing dries into small runs.  Bug life on that stream is excellent, just not enough depth to grow them big. 

Oasis?  I walked though something that looked like a lot of work and something that takes away from fishing time  :P

Thanks for the dries!

I think you fished at the right time/temp/level.
Those flies are money, BTW.

I told the asshats on here that fishing has cut into my gardening.
I am sooo behind. Even after 8 hours out there yesterday.

But I fished today. Report in the AM.  -0-
