Wolfgang you *must* let me try that on dick's creek on your next foray into the old north state. yfitons wayno (um, well, you can have my 6.5 orvis "one ounce" in temporary trade...) Sounds like a deal. I'm due for another dose of those lovely mountain streams. Is there any point in making a trip in the summer, or should I wait for October? Wolfgang |

I think slower is better when you are casting just the leader. I have a 7' fiberglass rod that works well in these situations, but when I'm heading to a really brushy area I take a bamboo rod because it just works best. This one is pretty slow. It's just the tip section of a busted rod I found in an abandoned house up in the UP about fifteen years ago. I cemented the female ferrule into the grip and voila! Wolfgang um......but don't tell wayno. :) |

Wolfgang well, the very best time would be mid april. but then, there's the question of penn's in mid may... if you would commit to a mid-april trip, we could probably form up a mini-clave with wally, zimbo, jeffie, pj, opie, me... in the big water in the smokies. yfitons wayno |

If you're thinking about that place with the waterfall, big pools, long sluice along a granite wall, etc., I think I still have the GPS data. That is a magnificent place - simply awesome scenery and replete with fish. I recall sending an EHC through a small falls with a bow and arrow cast and snagging a 12 inch brown hiding in the underlying pool. Tom |

IIRC there was a nice clearing nearby that would be a great campsite. -- Charlie... |

Tough choice for me. I DO love those mountain streams......but Penn's is the big one....and Roger is going to be there this year.....my chance to meet a jenuine European. Of course, I would love to do both, and my accountant, my boss, and probably Becky as well think it's a lovely idea......but I suspect that they all view it as yet another opportunity to beat me. :( Wolfgang |
