Ravens Fork Cherokee NC (Easter 2009)

Me and my son decided to enjoy the Easter weekend trout fishing on tribal land of the Eastern band of Cherokee Indians. The weather was great and we enjoyed some beautiful scenery. We fished the special catch and release section named Ravens Fork primiarily and landed several over 18 inches. When these fish hit, they hit hard, I hooked a monster that actually snapped the hook off the fly. On the way back we decided to explore a bit, traveling the parkway. We had a blast!

My Blog on simple daily happenings and unexpected events on the stream that are worth a snap shot and a comment.

I enjoy Fly Fishing the Wild Trout Waters of Western North Carolina, being Outdoors and simple Photography. I found that some of the best opportunities for taking a picture happens when you least expect it and always when your not ready with a more formal camera.

In this blog, the photography is taken with either my Kodak M1033 HD , Olympus 550WP Pocket Cameras or my Droid Smart Phone from Motorola. At Times when I take a break from the weather or hours of wading the streams, I may use my Nikon P100 that will allow me to take a slightly better picture.

My fishing gear is mostly Abel, Simms, Orvis, Fishpond, Sage and Winston. I enjoy tying my own flies however, The Fly Stop has an awsome collection of top quality flies that I often order from.

Locally, I keep myself outfitted from Casters Fly Shop (Orvis) in Hickory North Carolina and Wilson Creek Outfitters (Simms/Fishpond) in Morganton NC. Both Dave (Casters) and Walt (WCO) are great to deal with I highly recommend visiting their sites and stores.

I am a full supporter of of Catch and Release. Feel free to contact me anytime, I enjoying hearing from my readers. Email.
