    We all need to meet somewhere!!!

    Def was an enjoyable day. I still owe pizza so have to try again soon. Creek was kind of a let down but we scared a few and I got to swim a bit. I’m learning to enjoy lake fishing to it seems.

    Unbelievable. Like seriously unbelievable

    Look up Java City News in Beaufort, SC. See if they’ll mail you their roasted beans and grind yourself. I swear, best coffee I’ve had anywhere. I always get an after dinner latte/espresso wherever I travel. Usually Corp dinner events at swanky restaurants. None come close honestly. They swear...

    Crazy PA Taxes

    Funny/sad story, my first bill locally was $10k or some crazy number. I returned it explaining the job description (major surgeon) wasn’t accurate and I don’t make $MM/year. The second bill was the same amount but listed my occupation as CEO. No clue where they get the info. I’m honestly not...

    Crazy PA Taxes

    I read it’s capped for state and Borough/city but school isn’t capped. If I read it right that’s 3 taxes to groups that already tax me. I pay private tuition for my kids and she transports so not sure I’m a drain on their resources. With the rental, we have voluntarily paid commercial trash as...

    We all need to meet somewhere!!!

    Just giving you grief, most of you have access to larger cold native creeks. The stocked spot is fun but walking miles of creek with the chance at a native 20” trout is enjoyable in a different way.

    We all need to meet somewhere!!!

    For the record, I was semi active on a largish NC site. I was hurt pretty bad as a pedestrian by a uninsured motorist and folks I’d never met came together to drop off a cabelas food basket. I felt compelled to attend their next get together and have some life long friends now from that group...

    Crazy PA Taxes

    No problem taxing everything in sight. Overpay $5k to cover a dividend and they don’t want to refund. I don’t track financials but wife commented months ago it was taking awhile. Came up in convo today and she said the only change was the “8 week wait” is now saying “12-16 weeks”. It was her...

    Somewhere back in my short novella there’s a headcount and tentatives. Only one we’ve not heard from is RandyZ who started this thing.

    We all need to meet somewhere!!!

    Hate to nag, what is OP pizza? Original plain? Other People’s? Lol, I’m cutting back on junk food so I’ll limit to a few slices myself. I’m still a 32-34 or 34-34 in the new cut jeans but I feel every extra lb in my leg and back.

    Holding a fish

    I crush all my barbs. On every kind of hook. Initially it was in self defense as I have twice been hooked badly enough to require professional help. However it has been a lot better for the fish. It's rare now that I can't get a hook out without damage. I kept all kinds of stuff. Never salt...

    Holding a fish

    Yeah the owner stocks them to catch. He restocks every year. Somehow some seem to holdover. This is the first year I personally saw floaters.

    We all need to meet somewhere!!!

    Don, if you want me to bring pizza at 3 just need your preference. I’m pepperoni jalapeño all the way but Gaetanos doesn’t have Jalapeños. I don’t care for spicy normally but that combo on a pizza is good stuff.

    We all need to meet somewhere!!!

    I’ve heard beetle spins work well. Never had luck but only tried once with a black/yellow one. I’ve 3 doz minnows and will probably have more then plus a few dozen small shiners if I can find them. Last few months their “Medium” are bass sized or bigger. Looks like a few of us will be at the...

    We all need to meet somewhere!!!

    If you look at the cut tree stump tipped into the creek in the drought pic and the current you can really see the difference rain makes there. I don’t think Sunday will be a low water issue. It’s pouring again. The lightening and a late start eliminated my time to check it tonight but I’ll...

    Centerpin Stuff

    My last trip, #2 I was down to casting across the river right in synch with a few other guys. Only waffled a few casts though I had modified the cast 3-4 different ways copying the other guys. One young guy caught 10 to any one else getting 1. He had a thoughtless snap to his cast and hit...

    Centerpin Stuff

    Favorite thing I read on a Flyfishing forum. “I was working up my favorite section and a Bobber floated around the bend. I chuckled to myself at the schmuck losing his tackle. Then I walked around the bend and a F****** Centerpin guy had covered the best run from 200 yards upriver” Lol,,,
