Title: coming to NC for a for a few days
Post by: bubbajj88 on September 29, 2010, 19:44:10 PM
Can't wait to get to the mountains and some R&R. If we catch some fish along the way that would be too cool. Could use a little advice on the where and how. We will be staying at bear lake reserve, we are Florida saltwater flyers looking to try some mountain streams, any suggestions/advice........

Not very good, but she can cook and make me money so I can go fishing. If you will send me say, $500 I will let you in on the upcoming DH schedule.

Dayum! You must be in shit creek Oldman :laugh:
Bubbajj88, try my tried and trusted formula - a Delhorme Gazetteer and look for Transylvania County, you cant go wrong, every creek except for this crapper alongside 276 till Looking glass creek has some fantastic troutage in it...

Thanks for the replys. Oldman, your wife sounds like a keeper!
By the way, I'm not a half-backer, I'm a fifth generation Florida cracker who loves to fish. Here are a couple pics, one of my dad ( bluemoon cap) and my son (not yet a fly fisherman). Leaving in one week for a week in Jackson county, can't wait!

Thanks for the guidance TM, will only post fish pron, beer pron,  scenic pron, or titty art in the future. By the way, do you have any recipes for ~4" brookies poached in Yak milk???

Here is a good start, do a little research and ask questions for there, the more specific the better.

I'm not exactly sure where you are staying, I think it's near Cashiers? 3 good delayed harvest streams close to there would be East Fork of the French Broad, West Fork of the Pigeon, and the Tuckaseegee.

TM!!!!! I haven't seen titties in almost a year and THAT'S the BEST you can do!?????? I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit! Damn! Thanks a lot!! Bubba, it sounds like you might fit into this band of misfits. Sorry I can't help you as I'm still in Afganistan (but only for 9 more days!) and would kill to go fishin myself! Have a blast!
