Carrie Stevens, anyone?
 
I just came back from Labrador where they use brookies the size of those in the
Rapid for bait! I could take one hell of a lot of trips to Labrador for
350K...hell, I could BUY Labrador for not much more!!
Seriopusly, I know a fellow who has a camp on the Rapid and I understand that
it's marvelous, but still.............

He's definitely not familiar with Carrie Fisher these days. Damn,
she must weigh 200 pounds.


Shows you how little I know...I thought she was still dead. She sure did tie
some cool streamers.


Stevens is to Fisher as fly tying is to Princess Leia.

Sorry to disillusian you, but I have made five trips to Labrador, and while the
fishing is fantastic for big brookies, they are no bigger than what the Rapid
has to offer. They may have *more* (and also more water), but a five pound
brookie in Labrador is the same as a five pounder in the Rapid. A friend
recently took a 9+ pounder from the river (on a dry fly, no less), and I have
taken many 4 and 5 pounders from the river in the past few years.

What is the name of your friend that has a camp on the Rapid?
