This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Nice fish otherwise... but not a good sign for this fish.
Caught and released :)

Just curious what time you were fishing? I have tried fishing that spot a few times this year, but found the current too strong and the water too high.

Nice fish.

Nice fish.
When the water levels are down there are a few nice holes to fish. From the picture it is pretty clear that the water is well up into the woods. I don't foresee wading there anytime soon as it's too dangerous when it's running high.
