The He! With It

You just reminded me that I haven't been there in awhile. I'll try to hit it a few times this week.

Ooh, could send me a couple filets? (When you get your limit in the freezer, of course..) I looooove the taste of a healthy McCloud...

I prefer the roe, it's like eating 300 trout at once

Now that's just evil.... (besides, everyone knows an egg isn't equivalent to the grown animal.. )

Make sure the roe isn't from a male.

Make sure the roe isn't from a male.

I'm writing that down just to be sure.

Now I have to explain why I was laughing.

I know I'm a little late on this thread, but....

I completely agree with you MIC!!!! There are a lot of great people on this site and a lot great information but some people (ERIC1978) get off on telling people they're wrong.

Eric, you literally have to enter something negative towards the other members of this forum in 90% of your posts and then you don't let it go when people tell you they're tired of listening to you. Take a hint... Stop telling people how to act in the outdoors. No one on hear wants to hear it! Especially from you. I know it's tough to hear, but you don't know everything! The thing is, I agree with you on several issues, such as bed fishing, handling fish, conservation, etc. But your negative 2 cents every time someone posts a report or topic that isn't the exact way you would do it is really f'ing annoying!!! Everyone on this forum knows your views on conservation and stream anonymity... so stop repeating yourself and pissing off members of this forum who actually add valuable info.

MIC, I really hope you continue to post reports because a lot of people, including myself, really enjoy them. I love reading reports, constructive topics, and looking at pictures on this site because it's my way of enjoying fishing when I can't get out and fish.

Fish Question.Question about Crane Creek trout. My dad started fishing Crane about 1955. I started going with him about 1957. We would camp at the low water bridge 6 miles up from the James River. We would wade and fish up and down that creek. Dad worked with a guy who had grown up in Crane. They would take flyrods strip the wire guides and replace them with solid guides and run spinning reels on them. Run glass minnow traps and strickly fish minnows. We went down there at least 6 times a summer up until about 1963. We never caught a trout only smallmouth. Didn't fish Crane again until 1970,caught trout. I have heard that the McClouds have been in there for 100 years. My question is where were they in the fifties and early sixtys?

My friend Eric is NOT negative/pessimistic... He is a REALIST. (just ask him, he'll tell you)

Now it's not OUR fault that you can't see the reality in certain situations... I'd rather have Eric's realism (even if it's a bit overbearing) than to be surrounded by slap-happy-go-lucky-everything's-coming-up-roses wahoos.. FWIW Either learn to take Eric with a grain of salt or place him on ignore..

CHEERS!!!!

Mic,

You keep right on posting, and give as much information as you like, I do, Dont think that MDC has'nt built into their regulations for maximun ammount of fishing pressure, and some abuse of regulations. If they see a problem with a fishery they'll make changes. (Fly fishing)for me is a legacy, I want to bring as many people into this sport as I can. I have'nt been fly fishing for very long and I remember a couple of years ago I was fishing a tailwater in oklahoma for the first time and struggling to hook up with a fish, and there was a gentlman just up from me who was doing quite well so I asked him what fly he was using and he would not tell me, like I was asking some giant secret, anyway from that day I go out of my way to aid other anglers, if you ask me what fly I'm using I'm going to hand you one. I'll show you what rock their hiding behind, as long as you dont crowd me
