K Creek NC

[Bob Patton]

Last week a friend and I hiked up a trail through part of the Nantahala
National Forest. I took my 4-weight, just in case, you know. The stream is
an absolute jewel. I think that Wayno may be familiar with it. I put a few
pictures on the web, below.

Even ran across an old homestead all gone except for the apple trees, which
provided a snack. The apples were about the size of a quarter, in direct
proportion to the size of the fish in the creek.

Yes, it is! And, thank you from the bottom of my heart, for providing a new name
for tree snagging: "picking apples." It almost sounds like you did it on
purpose. :)

Yessir. It is that.
Too bad the pix all included some handsome guy with a fly rod and not enough
images of the stream, because it is one of the prettiest streams in the
mountains.

You're welcome! I figger if I'm not catching fish I can catch apples.
There really is an apple tree there above my head. The apples are courtesy
of the Roosevelt administration, I guess. The tree must have been a mature
tree when the government made the farm part of the national forest before
world war 2
