Title: SNP Redo

Foo Fighters. Walk. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4PkcfQtibmU#ws)

I know FoulHook just posted this up on the music thread, but this is a very fitting song with this being a redo trip for the SNP (got skunked last time) and it was Tranny's first outing for brookies this year.

I met up with Petey and Tranny at Harrisonburg Friday night and fished all day Saturday.  We fished a small trib since the rain pounded VA, but levels were still amazing.  I managed to bring about 10 to hand.  None with any real size for SNP, but I was real happy with the size and number.  It was just worth it to see Tranny's rod doubled over with his beast 12 inch brookie (he'll post those pictures later).  Overall it was a good way to spend a Friday night and Saturday before this last week of school before Spring Break kicks my butt.  Didn't take many pictures, but the other guys will post there's up after they get done fishing today.

Probably the most colorful brookie I've caught in a while.

As we where hiking out I managed to catch this guy.  Made my trip even more sweet being the biggest brookie I caught being from me dinkin around as we hiked out.

Wish I could of fished Sunday with you all, but there is way too much school work for me to go out today.  It was a great time getting out with you guys and hope we can do it again soon.  Post up the pics of the monsters you caught yesterday and today  -0-

Fine looking specimens, can't wait for the other pics. I was figuring you guys would have a good time of it this weekend. And you can post that song for every trip report if you want, it's pretty sick.

HEY TRANNY, HOW'S ABOUT THAT MONSTER FISH>>> POST PICS MY AFRICAN BRUTHA 'c;

Heres my contribution..

Took thursday off. Decided to hike into a trail-less creek straight down from an overlook off skyline. No big fish landed that day but numbers were high.
This creek hasn't really ever produced any true beasts for me. Sometimes I just like to catch a fish on every cast. -0-

I got a feeling that the black dry fly I tied on on Sat may rear some heads. besides, black is what got em all roused up this past weekend. Them fuggers might be thinkin Golden Corale opened up a branch on Skyline drive...

Ya its a beadhead. During emergence, the occidental pink weenie has a bulbous protrusion which is otherwise difficult to imitate. Rub some gink on it and it should stay up for ya.
