What a good day - a new creek, an old favorite, a new favorite, a wild trout hat trick (rainbows, browns, and brookies), 40+ trout, and I we

Little Buffalo Creek is a headwater tributary of West Buffalo Creek in Graham County and is managed by NCWRC as wild trout waters.

Happy Fathers' Day to my favorite fishing buddy - Ray Sugg, Sr.!

Another great camping trip has come and gone. . .

My awesome part-time summer job involves leading fishing expeditions for Haywood County Recreation and Parks.

I headed over to Celo NC to fish some new creeks, and then fished an old favorite in Madison County on the way home. Seven new creeks!

There are wild rainbows in the Broad and virtually every one of it's headwater tributaries, but none of them are on public land.

I caught wild browns, got two new creeks, and got a little exercise as a bonus - what a good day!

I had Veterans Day off, so I headed over the mountain to Hot Springs to try to catch a few freshly stocked trout.

Here is the gospel - Laurel River begins at Belva, the junction of 208 and 212.

My "go to" spot when I don't have a lot of time is always Jonathan Creek in Maggie Valley.

Long Creek is a hatchery supported stream on the lower end and a wild trout/natural bait stream on game lands.

The annual Snowbird camping trip went on without founder Doug Brooks, who was on a cruise in Alaska.
