ollie Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Just started thinking (that's dangerous I know) about a get together at Capps this Fall sometime in November. How about a little one fly (or in my case jig) competition with a lunch afterwards for bragging rights on the Capps? I can put something together and we could have like brats and beans for lunch. Sundays work best for me, but I could look into a Saturday. After Thanksgiving I would be out also due to my job. Any thoughts? "you can always beat the keeper, but you can never beat the post" There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!

drew03cmc Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Depending on the day, and provided enough notice, I might be able to make a weekend of it. Let us know Ollie! Andy
ollie Posted October 5, 2007 Author Posted October 5, 2007 Let me rephrase that, I can only fish on Sundays after Thanksgiving rolls around. Anyone else with ideas chime in please.

ollie Posted October 27, 2007 Author Posted October 27, 2007 I figured more of you guys would be up for this? I know I'll probably be down on RR for C&R weekend opener, but I'm thinking the weekend of Thanksgiving or perhaps the one after that?

Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted October 27, 2007 Root Admin Posted October 27, 2007 I'd like to go to Capps- sounds like a good excuse to me!
chub minnow Posted November 1, 2007 Posted November 1, 2007 I will already be up that way the weekend of Thanksgiving. Planned on fishing Capps, Hickory and possibly upper Shoal Creek that weekend.

ollie Posted November 6, 2007 Author Posted November 6, 2007 Let's make it Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend. Not the greatest time for all I'm sure. If not, someone please give out a shout for a Sunday weekend or post if you want to meet up on a Sunday morning. I did fish the creek yesterday and did alright for just a couple of hours. Eight stockers ranging from 6"-12". The small one, a brown, still had par marks on the side. Still makes you wonder about reproduction on the Capps. I did see the funniest thing when leaving though. A couple sitting on their buckets on the bank with Pocket Fisherman in their hands! They were fishing in water about shin deep in the middle of day with their bobbers and HUGE hooks with corn. Alright for kids to me, but I'm sorry, the Pocket Fisherman had me rolling! lol "you can always beat the keeper, but you can never beat the post" There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!
chub minnow Posted November 6, 2007 Posted November 6, 2007 I plan on being there. Let me know the rules of engagement.
