Got a good reminder yesterday on the stream about all the damn hangers left over from last years storms as a very large branch came down and landed in the water just about 10 feet from me. Make sure to look above you when wading. _________________ “Don't tell fish stories where the people know you; but particularly, don't tell them where they know the fish.” Mark Twain
