i think im starting to understand now. the peace pipe thing and that oddly thinner cigar cuz a white owl is much bigger and looks different. 

  What's written about any country's history is slanted and that's wording it politely. Anybody knowing anything about the true facts of whatever incident knows that, but did you ever see a film about Indians doing anything after smoking the Peace Pipe????? No, they were too "content" to sit and smoke, lol.

Especially when you consider that Native Americans were not smoking marijuana, it was tobacco in the peace pipe.  Cannibis is not native to North America, it was not in North America when the settlers arrived.


You are absolutely correct D-Nymph and after proofreading, I should have written differently. I didn't intend to imply they were smoking Cannabis and after proofreading, it appears that way even though it wasn't mentioned directly, but rather from the flow of the writing it appears as such. Thank you for pointing that out and I mean that sincerely.

CB412;
Here is some good advice. It helped me learn some of Erie. Download & print all of the free maps from this site's main page. Take a day or two in the off season when no one is on the tribs. Drive around to as many creeks on the map as you can. Park, walk and mark things on the map. The low water levels will give you an idea of the stream bed, holes, pockets. etc... They will change over time, but this is a good way to learn the lay of the land & figure out what is open to public fishing. If you try to do  it in the spring or fall, all you'll end up doing is fishing a good looking spot, quit searching & end up wasting expolring time.
That would be my suggestion......   

D-nymph

 I mean that sincerely.

Cool.  It's a very common misconception that Natives were smoking pot in the "peace pipes".

I must have been living under a rock for a few decades as I've never heard that proposed, but can understand the [false] reasoning behind it. Sometimes I get so wrapped up in composing with so many thoughts flying about that I get off track and that's what occurred in my last writing before you corrected me. Most of the time I proof read, but not that time and every time I don't do so immediately, errors are discovered later, sometimes grammatical, but mostly rewording that is more simpler, logical and "flows" better.
  Excellent advice JEB. The difficulty with many is once one has learned a few places to fish and what is productive, one becomes content and doesn't take the time to do as you suggested. Old habits can be difficult to break. Your suggestion opens up possibilities of new honey holes or at the very minimum, increasing the odds of finding catchable fish. [Proof read 3 x's]!
