I'm there to go fishing,
and the streamside observations and approach are part of that; to be
enjoyed, not rushed through. And frankly, if the trout don't like
the smell of a good Montecristo, it doesn't lessen my enjoyment of
either.


You da man, Joe. Pick up a Hoyo de Monterey Dark Sumatra - the bigger, the
better. You won't be disappointed, and you'll have enough left in your
pocket to buy that club for clubbing the water as you dash into the river
just upstream from Jeff. And if upstream just happens to be upwind, all the
better. ;-)

joe can club and smoke upstream and upwind of me anyday...i've got just
the spot. pleasant stroll for him down to the stream from hooper
bald...i'll begin above the junction and we'll meet at middle falls.
better bring a pocket full of smokes joe.
