a little more to the point.....and explicit


Went fishing on a dh Sunday with a good friend. I caught my first fish on this river with the same buddy who got me into fly fishing. It feels way more like a wild creek, and I'm sure at some point it was before they dammed it up. I'm sure you know it. Don't try to pretend that you're too good for a little cheap fun now and then. My buddy did that thing that white people like to do and 'took a year off' a few years back. Since then, he's re-entered reality and usually works 7 days a week(A year off is really fucking expensive). He fishes even less than I do now, so I agreed to go shoot some fish in a barrel.

Chilly start

Jumped into a good pool to start and thought I'd be somewhat civilized and throw a normal looking dry/dropper. These fish were fresh off the truck. They wouldn't know real trout food if it smacked them in the face.....which I did several times. Brought out the uglies and picked em off one by one.

I'm eyeing some stockards for some quick, cheap, and dirty after work fishing on these warm days. So no highbrowing from me regarding the uglies.
