Thanks for allowing us to travel along. I can visualize how the creek looked through your pictures and words but I can also remember the smells of the creek and fauna from past times on on secluded mountain streams. No matter where one is at we all should slow down and let those sights and smells permeate our bodies, minds and souls. Again I say thank you gentlemen for sharing this amazing experience with us.
Steve, I wonder if the presence of all those honeybees was evidence of a bee tree nearby?
Definitely. They were even worse than where me and you were camping last year. Ol' Sam would have been sending for the axe, mule, and seven buckets.

Alright, last fish of the trip and the camera was rolling. NCH was wanting to catch a fish out of all the tributaries and needed this one. It didn't take long....

Thank you for taking us with you. Sounds like an awesome trip shared with a true friend. I am honored to be able to go along through your story.
You need to take it off private setting. We can't see it.

Ole timmers like myself enjoy see post about flyfishing . i had the pleasure meeting Whitetailfreak at bass pro . Nice young man . When you pass the 70 mark its about over .
Wow what a story and trip ! Hillbilly you should seriously consider writing a book .
I enjoyed this thread. I too am past those days and nights, but it`s nice to observe good times like that.
I totally enjoyed reading about this! Thanks for sharing!
I actually already have, many years ago. Just not about fly fishing. It's about edible and medicinal native plants.
We have got to share a fire one night, Nic. It won't be long until I'm past it. That's why I'm trying to do as much of it now as I can.
