We were fortunate to have a founding member of F.A.G. return for a visit to the hallowed waters of Curdville. Jazz Hands arrived from the beaches of California pumped for some stream trout and curds.
After many stops to acquire food, gas and a friggin' license for Jazzy (which was ultimately purchased over mobile phone), we arrived at Famous Original Ray's where we met up with TP.
Fishing was initially productive, with a trico hatch underway. The fish weren't going nuts, but they were feeding above and below. After a few fish were landed around the big pool, we adjourned to the gallery for some sight fishing.
It was slow, and the weather was hot, but the shade and herbs provided relief. The fish of the day was landed by Booter when he stole Jazz's spot and landed a 15"er.
We fished our way back to the car and then headed to the EPB&G for (three baskets of) curds. After stuffing ourselves and getting screwed over by the pull tab machine, we headed back to the Cities for keg stands. That's how we roll, sucka.
