Started off the day at the Fly Fishing Show in Winston-Salem, NC, and ended up on the Watauga.
Plan B
Visions of Spring.
When I envision Spring, I think of 2 places. Those would be WNC (Western North Carolina) trout streams, and this creek that flows by my town, known as Twelve Mile Creek.
Little bit about me..
Hello everyone, I am new to the SWC team and just wanted to share a little bit about myself and my fishing background.
Next Day Mail
It has been tough fishing the last few weeks. This time last year there was not a flake of snow on the ground. Carp, steelhead, and pike were still cooperating and life was good. This year we seem to be back into our “traditional Midwestern winter.” This can be a blessing and a curse. I decided in the Fall that […]
Summer on the Road Part I
Ever since I was a little boy I had an innate appetite to see the world. As much as I enjoy fishing my home waters of the Upper Texas Coast I often grow tired fishing familiar venues. Periodically, I feel the urge to get away even if that entails stepping outside my zone of comfort.

This Holiday weekend was awesome. I had 4 days off work and finally got the chance to take out the Diablos out on the water.

I headed over to his place Thursday night, to shorten the drive in the morning, and […]

Not Taking Things For Granted, and Glad To Be Back On The Water.

I tried to sit down, and realized that unlike the other times my back hurt, I could not sit in a […]
Fly Night at Rainer and Noel’s
Our buddy Rainer invited a few guys over his place to drink some booze, tie some flies and hang out. So a few of us went over and had a ball. We got there slightly earlier than the fly tying would be going down, so we messed around with Rainer’s 3 and 5 wt fly rods in his back yard. […]
