This winter is shaping up to be one of my best personal campaigns on the streamer front. There isn't much out there that trumps a pissed off brown gunning a 6" long chunk of meat, attacking it, letting him turn and strip setting the shit out of it /'/

Goldie n I agreed we would leave R-Town at 5AM and be onsite to search Leroy by 10. The air was frigid. It was a tad windy, the guides iced up till 11AM. In the back of my head, I'm thinking "that fucking weatherman"

RaZ, this new jacket is tits, better than the old one. I likes it alot. Also a good color for winter fishaings
The air temps hovered around the low 30's all morning. We started down low and worked or way up. Following the suns path to warm up the dark as hell little canyon.
Fish were holding in all the right places.

Water temps were around 38. Sucks not being on a coalfield spring

I looked into this cauldron and could see a decent brown finning right on the bottom, Goldie put on his brick weight and dredged this fugger out.

Next up, I took aim. Saw this brown sitting under a rock, could see his pectoral fin, the sun dancing just right off it. Put Woolly's Evil Envy about 4feet upstream, let it drift about a foot from his nose and did one of them flick flack shimmys with the line, swooped the rod low and he shot out and smashed the fly. I retaliated by jerking (that's right) the line into my side like one of those NFL celebrating assholes does in the end zone. The immediate result was a buttery bastage launching his ass about two feet out of the water, over a tree stump. I gave chase, stumbling (sober, mind) over rocks and other debris to get upstream and turn him into a back eddy where I could nab his ass.

Brah Sleazly always had a way with holding fish. I likes them scallop shell shaped pectorals.

Slow day. 10 fish. 9 hours of driving, 2 hours of fishing.

My boy Goldie wanted to go to the Fag Show in WS. I text the bossman, alas, all was lost (thank fuck) but an alternate was to show for a few minutes to see several of y'all pissy flaps drunk 'c; I have had a rather sober week since I got kicked out of my local for a barfight.

And as I descend off the mountain to return to normality, an aura of happiness surrounds me knowing there will be another day to tussle with these fishes that have led me around the world and shown me some cool people and places.
Jah Bless dis child

I don't like it. Dunno what fishpond is thinking. No beer holders, tippet attachments, much smaller than the Nimbus. The materials are the shit but really, just not very functional. I'll have to improvise. Carry 6 pk stringers from the d-rang.

I got a William Joseph pack coming my way from winning that Drakemag Big Year thang. You purchase me some bazzas and we's in bidnezz

Sweet! Love those fins.

Streamers are so much fun.

TF, I've been trying for 3 yrs to fish with Mike.  Never can make it happen.  I think we need to buy him a 1.5 of vodka and a case of PBR and take him to the coast.

I'm looking at Billy Joe's stuff too.  Like the whorvis pack, but want some versatility.  Beer holder is a must.  Fishpond has at least one sling with one, but not really the right size and the net holder looks like it sucks.

You can't land an otter on 7x. Now I know - Dougfish

deal, TF. 

But bring a bote. 

Beg, borrow or steal one.

High water sucks.  Upper end requires powered flotation devices.  I lost my Saturday last weekend to that bitch and never wet a line.

Upper end can't be waded at 1K cfs.  Not certain it can be much lower either.

Maybe at the zoo.

Maybe..

I have a 14' alumacraft v-hull with an 18 hp Evinrude and a trolling motor. Just need to get taxes paid on it and check it out good. And get my truck back from the transmission guy.

Pigs are on hold, for now.

And, I hate to say it like this but it's truth . . . I have to wait for my uncle to die. Lots of energy spent there right now. Maybe by March, but I can't hurry this.

Only God can.

Raymond,
Mike lives up to expectations on and off the water. We fished and drank a few times last year.
He does not fear the troutfanatic; he may fear the trout pro.... That is untill we get him naturalized and armed.

I shall feesh that New Zealand river with you this spring.

You sound like such a douche.
I was born by the river in a little tent, And just like the river I've been running ever since, It's been a long, long time coming, But I know change is gonna come.

It's all good Mike.

Priorities are a good thing. 

Weddings, funerals, family, etc. need to take precedence. 

Liquor stores, well, not so much, maybe. 

The time will come, whether on a trout stream, chasing tail(ing reds), or gar.

Douche on . . .

I'll do that, just like all of the rest of the good posters have done.  And you can go back to having conversations with yourself on this message board.
