it is a fun fishery…i used to depend on the spillway creek the most, saw quite a few karge fish come out of there.

Has anyone heard if the Norfork is getting better after the big development, erosion fallout….that guy ought to be driven out of town…really sucks

I haven’t read all these post, but, if there is gonna be a defense about how it is ok to fish for browns off the reds because they are not native, well, the only native trout in this country is the cutthroat, aside from some rainbows from the California strams and brookies in the east.

pretty solid rumors are that it is Carabelle, FL….it was a great show, lots of hook ups, lots of break offs, an hour of X-itement

[paul_puckett]

I am assuming it was Dukes Creek, the non fishing day remark helped that assumption.

I know, but it is easier to look out for the mug….its a giveaway

I would fish the Madison that time of year, where the confluence of the Gibbon and Firehole make the Madison on down to Barneys and Bakers…great time of the year to fish that.

Hey Pancho,
I never have stayed there, but know many people who have.

Hey Zach,
Thanks for the compliment, very much appreciated!
I liked your carpy article as well.

When I lived out in Jackson, from 2000-2004, most of the people out there speculated that at some point the park, before they knew it would be bad, actually may have introduced this fish to the lake about 40-50 years ago.

Hey guys….
I live in Atlanta and fish the Toccoa quite a bit.

“Dumb Cutties”?????
I would just call them opportunistic on the Snake….I guess Brandon didn’t give up the good spots with the “smart” cutties…..I know he knows where they are!

Zach,
No clue, I dont know if I have ever seen it…sounds interesting.

Here’s the deal,
I work in the flyshop in Atlanta, there is no science here, we just talk to people, and help them with flies and gear. I worked out west for 4 years in the shop and guiding, and yes there is your fair share of guys that have no idea, but more people do know whats happening than not.

[paul_puckett]

Great flies,
They have been great sellers in the shops I have worked in.

I heard the guy went and retrieved a quail, came back up over a hill he wasn’t originally on.

“Too bad about the tackle clerk feeding your son misinformation. ” – Newsman

I wouldn’t say the clerk gave you “misinformation”…it was just his opinion.  And, you should be able to cast the rod before you buy it anyway.  I think for beginners it is easier to use a longer rod to get more leverage and cast further and more accurately.  You can always get a 7-8 foot rod and choke up during certain situations.

[paul_puckett]

I was hoping it to be a lot more technical than that…like you could watch people fishing from a webcam or something….oh well.

[paul_puckett]

whats the deal with a “vest digicam”…what is that?
sounds interesting ???
