Befuddled and I made tracks out of shitville to TX Country. On the way up, we had to wet the line...

Huge slump in temps by upwards of 30degrees, both pansies obliged and donned waders...
For a 2 inch dink :bomb

Saturday dawned dull and BRA was planning to meet me on the highest peak in eastern US. Wasn't as cold as I expected, and we attempted to crack the code on 6K feet brookies. The hike in was easy, the hike out was nasty :wink
Here goes:

Stream was fertile, but brookies were absent. Possibly acid rain keeping them out? 6K brookies in WNC, not done, and of course the bastard hike out b';

So we decided to treat ourselves to 8 creeks that form high up on the parkway. Brookies galore. Didn't take that many pictures, focussed on finding that beast...

After 10 hours of hiking/fishing/soul searching, both of us felt like Mike Tyson had KO'd us. Headed back to TX "surprise" party. Good crowd attended.  ;D

Drank a tad too much Moonshne and way too many beers. Fell in the creek at 4AM. Goddamn.
The lads looked rough this morning, but I was in a major hurt locker. Here's Maniac drawing the crowds with his dodgy flies :o

Split into three groups. Our quad would choose the shittest creek, still managed some but didn't bother taking their mugshot.

So since I ran out of steam and am licking my wounds, others put up your pix.
Happy Birthday TX.   0:0

We managed to get into some nice natives in the next 7 creeks that we hit, and had a total blast..

I started drinking as soon as we got to the party, so I have no pictures of the festivities, but TX's wife had done a great job of setting up a real nice shindig..Lots of imbibing, and hilarity, and a good time was had by all..Great to get to hang out with friends and put some faces to screen names as well..

Today we split into groups, and I fished with TX..We broke Transy's cardinal rule and fished a wild stream that was hit yesterday..First cast and TX got a birthday gift from the trout gods..

We did well and fished some amazing water..I got broken off on what may have been a 13" native, and I'm still kicking my own ass for..

Must be coming down with something, when I was driving back home with my friend Matt, we saw a black bear on the side of 221 in marion standing on his hind legs, he looked like he was trying to cross the road, naturally, I slammed on the brakes and wanted to snap a pic, but some corksucker almost rear ended us, so we had to bail. Just thought I would put that out there. Now anyone know how to flush moonshine and other unsavory things out of one's system? (-s

peeps may laugh, but a fraternity brother of mine showed me this. Drink pedialyte(that shitty kids drink, I get it at walmart) and it works wonders to ward off hangovers. Kinda ridiculous drinking it, didn't believe it at first, but it does work. Also, follow that up will some emergenC. 1-2 punch takes care of alot of hangovers up here.
