Had some time off and no option to change it, so I headed out knowing it was going to be cold with low water and tuff fishing. The water was low, and the weather was anything but seasonal for this time of year. I was scheduled to tie at the WNC Expo Saturday morning so I intended to make the best of it. The best part was spending time with friends camping and fishing. It's hard to beat the company of people like Beetle Ben, Caleb, Allen, Wild Bill, and Pete I hate I missed you. Got to see lots of old friends at the expo Saturday, and met a few new ones. Kyle and Bruce you two guys made my day. Kyle I have always admired you, it now borders on hero worship ;D Caught lots of fish, but the good ones were hard to come by. Didn't even tape any of them, but my net is a Brodin Frying pan model and has a 18" bow, one of my friends kept saying, oh that fish is about 14" :P

My hands were just too cold to do much photo taking, and I didn't hardly drink any hippie beer. Coffee, hot coco, and hot tea were the preferred drinks. Did smoke a couple of excellent CAO cigars, the Box cut Brazilian and the Gold Maduro were the best. 'c;

I enjoyed the heck out of it!  I have decided you can fish as good as you tie flies, which is pretty doggone good! bd;0  By the way, I am reasonably sure the guy above you and the guy below you Thursday afternoon went home and sold their rods and have now taken up knitting.

ex - I'm not going to live with you through one more fishing season!

My son: My dad has two fish on his car and they're both trout!

Unless it rains I would go else where, but if you do, take some Townsend Beetles and some Allie Worms.
