Another great camping trip has come and gone. . . three days of good fishing, good food, and good fellowship around the campfire. It didn't rain as much as usual and the water levels were great, but it got downright cold at night. Coach Shook, Coach Fox, and Colonel Brooks couldn't make it this year. We really missed you guys, but we told some of your stories and reminisced about you anyway! Coach Shook, your fly rod caught the biggest trout, and Colonel, I really need you to come next year so we can walk into Slickrock! I started telling a Coach Fox story and Coach Brooks chimed in with "now tell me if you've heard this story before - it don't matter, I'm gonna tell it anyway"!
Here is the list of this year's attendees:
Me (Ray Sugg), although I am not in any of the pictures, I promise I was there!
Doug Brooks
Larry Brow
Brian Craig
Ronnie Craig
Jessie Craig
Bailey Craig
Ty Craig
Austin Sluder
Mike Sutton
Andrew Sutton
Chris McRoberts
Alan Grover
I got a lot of help on the campfire singin' from Andrew Sutton this year, and as soon as Larry Brow and Austin Sluder learn how to play the banjo, we are all going on the road as "Snowbird Creek". Coach Brooks, I promise to learn the lyrics to "Lyin' Eyes" by next June!
This year's playlist in no particular order:
Wagon Wheel
Heard It In A Love Song
You Ain't Goin' Nowhere
Take It Easy
Tequila Sunrise
Country Roads
Rocky Top
Margaritaville
A Pirate Looks At 40
Ain't Even Done With the Night
Cheeseburger In Paradise
Copperhead Road
Fire On The Mountain
I did get three new creeks (Chestnut Flat Branch, Hooper Branch, and Little Buffalo Creek - I will post these separately) raising my total to 973 creeks. I also added a couple of limits to the fish fry and caught-and-released bunches of stockers near our campsite and down at B1 on hares ear nymphs and buggers.
Thanks again for another great trip, guys! Here are the rest of the pics:
See you next June at Snowbird!
