Taking advantage of the cooler temperatures and by far the best weather this season, I decided to head back into my familiar stomping grounds, The Pisgah National Forest. I would usually camp in a more primitive setting however, given the holiday, they were long gone when I got there. Stopped by the Davidson River campground and fortunatly I was able to secure a site from people that decided to leave early. Honestly, for $20 a maintained campsite, bath houses, some history and being along a Trout Unlimited top 100 stream is not a bad deal. The Mrs was along for the trip so it was equally devided into showing her the beauty of the area and some Flyfishing. Started at Looking Glass Falls, Sliding Rock and of course the Hatchery to show her the HAWGS that call it home. Excellent fishing on Wild Waters, the fish displayed some beautiful colors and a good fight as usual. My usual M.O. is to take pics while fishing however, being the trip was split between two activities, the camera got a little extra workout.
Ps.. So many pictures, so hard to decide.. Maybe another post in order? I have to add one more comment to complete this. If the Great creator of all things Flyfishes..He does so with a
Winston Fly Rod. After enjoying the new rod this weekend, I'm sold... Simply an amazing rod, period.
