QUOTE The one thing I do usually lie about is where I caught what I caught I have to agree with you on that. Been guilty of that more than once... Billy

I've fished for a long time. Was always proud of my trips, somemore than others. But never felt like I had to stretch someones leg about it to make myself excel as a peer in that persons eye. All fisherman are liars and all liars are fisherman. Kinda of like a double edged dull sword. What does anyone have to gain by telling fibs about thier trips? I've heard some good ones while hanging around in the bait shop. Some of them came from unsuspected victims that would either catch 6lbers, when locals wouldn't catch anything, to catching several fish of one species that doesn't even exist in that stream. At first it was annoying, but now it's just plain funny. Eventually the truth comes out and you go from a peer to a pud. I'm proud to post a report where I catch 50 keeper smallmouth, but I'm also as proud to post that I just had the opportunity and the health to get in the creek for a couple of hours and not catch anything. So if you ever get the hankering to bend the truth, remember the more stories you create the harder they are to remember.... Billy

Will, PLease feel free to place an ad on The Creek Bank for Geeen Caddis. BIlly

A banded scuplin would be a killer in that pattern for sure... Billy

Will, Sorry to hear that. Hope all goes well with the healing. I'll go see Hubbard today and tell him and please fellows no negative comments....at times we need to reflect on someone's well-being. I've never heard one negative thing toward Will from Chris and feel he should know... Thanks, Billy

Sir Shoe and his Umqua Lumqua Zoo Cougar tying brigade collide with Lorax as he searches for the missing Nypmph scroll of magic flies hidden by the BDH.

And out of the mouth of Steelhead Mountain far to the West in the fiery smoke-filled skies comes the cry of the Redneckshadrap McDragon....

They may be active, but in 45 degree water they fight like a drunk passed out creek chub.....All fish have to eat in cold water..... Smallmouth in 45-50 degree water will pull your arm off... Saw that first hand in Dale Hollow Lake in January. Now two months later the smallie bite down there is on fire.... But these are different lakes so you can't really compare them... Billy
