Well, it was a day after the brule trip and I was to head to the Curd river for some hot brookie action.

we started of at the spot that has become known as "my spot". From the car the river looked a bit high but the water of the small tributary, didn't appear to be too stained so I was initially hopeful.


when we got down to the river we saw the reality, it was completely blown the Fuck out. It was so blown out that the only safe way to cross the river all day was to go over the bridge.
well we threw everything we had at them to no avail, oh well, it was a great day to be on the river and outside. we tested a new fishing technique perfected by centuries of mouth breathers, it's called Chub Chummin'. I've been aware of the technique since last year's "F.A.G. way out West trip". This video outlines the pinnacle of mouthbreathism notice the container of maggots next to the lawn chair.
