Default 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.............

Aw c'mon Op, surely you remember Playboy's miss June 1997.

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?
