um, well yeah...so far anyway. is that the bet? if so, i'm pretty
sure
i can hazard the six pack, but no way i'm wagerin my dog...um, or
rachel. g

Well, Becky says one way or another someone......and probably more
than one.....would die trying to collect. Cullen said nothing, but he
goes where his Mumma goes.

O.k., a six pack it is.

hear now. btw, someone at the local bar mentioned there might be a
"steelhead" (faux variety) run up lower hazel creek in october... never
heard of such a thing, ...but, when you wish upon a star... you got any
steelhead fishin stuff? we should make a fontana lake-run steelie a
"joker's wild" pay double bet, eh? so, bring a case or two of that
glarus. g

Hm......well, I won't be needing it, but I guess it's one of those pro
forma thingies, huh? O.k., I'll bring some to the table.

I do. Got that St. Croix 7/11 wt. girder. If you've never fished for
steelhead, you should. Everybody should at least try it some time.
Personally, I don't much care for it. Too much repetitive flogging of
the water for my tastes. But, when you hook into one, it WILL take
you for a merry ride!

Rats! This is starting to sound expensive.

and...um...sadie is spayed. i trust you will inform cullen...

Cullen is........um.......indifferent, since he went to the vet and
got tutored.

Many moons ago the NC DNR planted steelhead into Fontana, never really took
if i recall correctly but the guy who used to post here from the department
that the remants of that experiment is the source of many a large rainbow
caught in Hazel and the other creeks which feed into fontana.

every time i either fish or walk by that unmistakable little bathtub
sized holding place, the ol thumper picks up the pace. an indelible memory;
glad you were there.
