And yet the latest issue Trout (TU's magazine) has a very nice story on
Appalachian brook trout, including a shot of a stream that looks for all

the
world as if its flowing down a grand staircase built of car sized

boulders. And
no pictures of mesomorphic brookies.

It is a very good article. If they'd spent a little time and effort maybe
they could have had the TV crew tag along on that story. Christopher Camuto,
who wrote the article in Trout, has a marvelous appreciation for the
mountains, and if he'd let a TV crew participate I'm sure it would have been
an interesting program.

Also the TU TV show last year did an episode on the Mecan R. in Wisconsin where
they were virtually rained out and spent most of the show talking water quality
and tying flies. Which, come to think of it, may explain why they might have
felt a need to spice up the production values this year.

What month in the springtime would be the best? No promises but, as I've written
before, the mother-in-law lives in Fairfield Glade TN and I have permission to
abandon Jacci there if we ever go back down to visit.

May is a lovely month in the mountains. Been there. Done it. Eager to do
it again. I think it's time to broaden the horizons of all those effete
pointy headed louts up in Pennsylvanica, Taxachusetts, and what not. I say
scrap the Penn's thing and do up a BIG bash in Graham county.....let's see
if them boys can fish more than an ahms length from the cah.

yep, late april is the best time of the year for us. it's the only time
that you will see substantial insect activity in the form of "hatches",
although it will not be anything like what i have seen in the northeast
about two weeks later.

Some of us pointy headed types have spent the bulk of this season chasing brook
and brown trout in little mountain streams that require a bit of hoofing. Good
for the soul and all that. Still, unleashing 40 or so of us onto brook trout
waters might be a bit much. I always figured that the lure of Penn's had a bit
to do with the prolific bug life....kinda ties in with the fly part of fly
fishingg. I think, in that respect, we've gone and corrupted the NC crowd(at
least for one blissful week a year).
still Loutish in PA,
Tom
