I need to get myself and the family up that way. Looks like a place that we would enjoy a lot. Yes you do and no I don't right now. Incidental by catch is fine and I like it and do get excited about it as I do every fish on the fly rod. Not in my wheelhouse right now other goals to make but who knows I might try on purpose someday like some others I know!

Foghorn Posted August 13, 2021 Posted August 13, 2021 Enjoyed the photos and the storyline that played out with it. Really liked the brown trout. BilletHead 1

Wish I could get that foreigner to join and tell us more. Seems like they were getting something like 15 cents a pound for carp and buffalo, you have to catch a lot of fish to make any money at that rate. Now I may be remembering wrong, but it wasn't much that they were getting.
bfishn Posted August 13, 2021 Posted August 13, 2021 As a kid in north Missouri, I took full advantage of the "drift" available on the creek and river sandbars, collecting Lake Superior agates, petrified wood, etc. Somehow "driftless" sounds like a casino buffet with no prime rib to me. I can't dance like I used to.
