Brookie Heaven

Firstly, I will not be responsible for any damage that may occur to your electronic devices due to drool.

I made a little trip south to meet up with my brother for some brookie fishing monday. I will probably never hike 10 miles in waders again in my life. The stream was a tea stained color and yielded quite a few fat little brookies with some reaching the 10-11" class. Probably one of the most beautiful streams I have ever fished, but I will let you be the judge on that.

    Seemed like the other guy had the right idea with wearing shorts....

    where you fished, actually, the pic with you casting into the waterfal, was on the cover of a predominant fly fishing mag last year... either fly fisherman or fly rod and reel. Good thread. You finally went-a-chasing.

    Great pics. I love it down there, beautiful place. I had a buddy who went to college at Western Carolina and lived in a cabin right on a brookie stream for two years. Boy was I jealous...
