Hey Ben,

thanks for checking out the site-- I'm always amazed at the variety of anglers I meet everywhere I go. Yesterday I had a guy flag me down by holding his fly fishing vest in the air out of his window because my license plate has the word "trout" in it haha.

let me know how the stripers go-- send me some pics!: mudboots@gmail.com

cheers

Brian, Ill be checking the site for the pictures of those NC smallies. You remember the guy who asked you where you were heading with that sage flyrod at the ATL airport. Hope you had some great luck. Seeing you with the flyrod made me realize i need to dust mine off and try for some striped bass out here. We get them on fly with a plug and teaser rig but seeing them slam a bug or a streamer would be great.

Matt: Thanks for the heads up-- mostly I'll be hitting up the french broad for smallies and such but I will probably have a day to hit up a trout stream-- any suggestions? I'm always down for native trout but also wouldn't mind looking for some browns even if its small stream fishing. And, thanks, now I want to drink beer :-) I'll probably check out some of those brews

cheers

There is so much fishing in that part of the world dude. Very few big trout waters, but more wild and native trout than you can shake a stick at. If you ever had a hankering to catch a native southern strain brook trout I can point you in the right direction. Also, as I'm sure you know, Asheville is an incredible beer town. Jack of the Wood and the Thirsty Monk are right across the street from one another and both excellent. Not to mention the 6 other brewpubs in the city, Barley's Taproom, etc. etc. etc.

While I'm glad Sir Brinley is ok, that is pretty damn funny.

Gotta love our furry little friends!

Nice Patterns Brian! Don't forget about plain old bead-head buggers esp. black under an indicator. I've duped some nice smallies this way. Good luck.

Brian,
Don't know if you have before but Stampede can be lots of smallmouth fun in the Summer. Up to five lbs. Have fun on your trip.
