Congrats on surviving a Jeff Miller Death March.
Do you think that the work being done on the stream impacted the
feeding of the fish?
By the way, I saw on Mythbusters that a weapon can and will fire
underwater. If it had been a true "full Reid with a sidearm," the fall
would have flipped the safety and the sticks on the bottom would have
pulled the trigger. The shot would have grazed your tuchus, holed your
waders, scared the hell out of you and killed North Cackalacky's only
5lb brook trout (and yes, you would have still lost that spring).
