I can catch brown trout too

[benben reincarnated]

Yesterday I drank myself into a stupor at the Oktoberfest in downtown Asheville.  Needless to say, this morning I was questioning my idea of meeting up with Foulhook to fish for some brown trout.  After I managed to make the drive over to meet Nick I figured I'd be alright enough to fish, although I had quite a bit of difficulty getting rigged up, must have killed those particular brain cells yesterday.  As it would be, this is my first time fishing for brown trout.





Hang a right at the bra






First bite, first fish....what hangover?









this stream is a literal dump, trash pretty much all over the place, one of many things we came across




















ridiculously large creek chub



















more freakin' trash


















slight obstacle




view looking down after the climb up










no beer for today gents...gonna give my liver a break.

You obviously didn't drink enough Jagermeister with me yesterday.  Looks way more fun than cleaning the gutters
