Well with all the tenseness lately, I am starting another non-fishing related thread. If you don't like it, send me a PM with you're complaint and I will file it under S - for stuff i dont care about We all enjoy brktrts posts. and i especially like his posts on the food he eats after\during...

I am starting some odds: chances Rusty Spinner actually doesn't work for TU and is really a mole for XOM planted to approve a pipeline running the entire eastern seaboard: 500-1 Dr. Gonzo passes the bar only to take up a career path of moving to Hollywood in pursuit of his own reality TV...

I recently read a book called Backcast by Lou Urenech. The premise of the book is a father son fishing trip roughing floating down a river in Alaska. The twist is that the father and son have been torn apart because of the father's divorce from the mother. The fishing aspect - I thought...

I was in the Catskills to attend a wedding this weekend and brought my rod as I had a small window early in the morning to get out and fish. I got up around 6 with a headache from the festivities the night before but a desire to fish. Funny how fishing can rise a man with a heavy head and...

The good Dr. and I decided that we would take off early from work and get some fishing done. I picked him up at the train station, grabbed a bite, then hit the river. We got there and it there was NOTHING going on up top. So, we resorted to nymphing. I will let all of you come down from...

so i hit the west branch of the croton tonight. some caddis coming off, so i went to work. water flow was down water temp around 64 i finally got a decent size fish, and a pic. the trout swam away happy. i have to say, fishing in the dark is really a different experience. i find time...

Ok well it seems as though the other thread got a bit off topic. However, I am planning on going to the Catskills this saturday or sunday. is anyone else planning on heading up?

Ok just wanted to start this so that anyone interested in hitting the catskills this weekend could coordinate if they want to meet up. im trying to get in touch with medieval gonzo (his cell phone was a victim of the battenkill i believe) rambler and ricky are planning on heading up and...

So at about 3:00 yesterday my phone makes its familiar "pinging" sound letting me know I have a text message. Normally this would be an ordinary event with a text from either a. a buddy of mine who decided to start drinking during his lunch break. b. my girlfriend or c. my wife. (kidding)...

Hey guys. Going camping and fishing up at the Battenkill on Sept 18th and 19th. I will be in Cambridge NY and know NOTHING about this fishery. Has anyone ever fished it this time of year?

Ok so I know this is super short notice but I was wondering if any of the guides on this site had tomorrow open to a day with me and gonzo. looking to either NJ, Farmington, or even the delaware. I know this is a reach but if anyones free and looking for some business tomorrow, PM me or...

I know we have a lot of Jersey guys here. But I thought it might be nice to see how the croton system was doing. I fish it a lot, so I thought I might post a couple of reports as I fish it. Last night I fished Garcia's Pool on the West Branch of the Croton. It is off of croton falls road...

I had an experience this weekend that was really cool. I was fishing the East Branch of the Croton on Saturday morning and worked a good bit of the river with no luck. I finally just put on a bugger and was swinging it through the Bathtub Pool (for those familiar with the river, it is a long...

Went out to the East Branch Croton last night for a couple of hours. Got there around 5. Flow was at 50CFS and I have had ZERO luck there so far so I wasn't expecting much. I spoke with a couple guys coming off the river and they said they saw a coouple of fishing rising, so I tied on a...

so i decided to head out to the mianus after work today. i didnt catch a damn thing. no riser. no hookers. nothing. i did however manage to get interviewed by some local paper while i was gearing up. the guy asked me some terrific questions. here were some of the questions he asked 1...

One interesting thing about a sport like fly fishing is that you get people from all walks of life. Throw in a forum, and fuhggettaboutit. So, I know work sucks, but I'm curious. What does everyone here do for a living?

NEFF. I am asking for some advice. As April 1 approaches, I want to start seeing what all this fuss about dry fly fishing is about. So, for the end of march through June, what dry flies would be my best bet? Pictures would be helpful. Also what rivers tend to be the most productive. Thanks in...

I am planning on heading out this weekend. I think the Norwalk is "closed" was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on where to hit up. nThe east branch croton is running at 440 or something so I dont know if i want to head there. Suggestions not only welcome, but encouraged. And...

Members of NEFF. Thought I'd share a trip opportunity with all of you that I was notified of by Rob Lewis at the Anglers Den in Pawling NY. (DBCARLE I hope this doesnt qualify as spam if so I apologize in advance) Anyways Rob told me about a trip he does to the Dream Catcher Lodge on the Big...
