One of those days that the fish don't matter.

Reconnecting with an old friend and being stream side was all that mattered.

This photo was captured from an MPEG.  It was the day that solidified my opinion:
"Brook trout are the most stupid trout of all."

Have you ever walked up to hole and not fished it.  Decided from afar it didn't warrant your attention and the hole erupted with fish as you blindly walked up to it?



The next day I fished this hole and caught the minimum of a dozen good sized brookies here.

This was a tricky hole.  Kneeling to cut down on your silhouette and casting upstream and feeding it under the snag was tedious .  You must not allow any slack in your line on a hook up or the trout will dive directly back in to the snag. Getting the head up immediately is key

Some people look at this photo and turn up their noses and think the erosion makes the stretch a poor
place to fish.  I see the banks the way nature made it and the logs put there by nature as a potential big
trout home.  No bank grooming needed here.

upper pine creek in Crawford County.
Public waterway.  This hole is about
three feet deep and loaded with trout.
Open pasture so no problems with back
casts.  A perfect place to take an angler
who is a beginner.
