    Should have tried to snag the loon.

    Or used a Bufflehead call to get one to come and fight the loon.

    Perhaps it was a combination of Nicholai's stunning good looks and the exposed powerlines running overhead that did it?

    Did what?

    One thing we did figure out was that to find the torque on a fishing rod fighting a fish you would have to use the average value theorem of integrals to get theta in T=sin(theta) vr or whatever the hell that equation is

    we also decided that at .005 pi square inches a cent the 16" pizza was better deal then the 14 incher wich you only got .0048 pi inches^2 per cent


    and we wonder why we never get any action

    I guess skunked means you didn't get any fish. That sucks, I thought that was going to mean you actually got sprayed by a skunk, which would suck for you, but be a great laugh for the rest of us!



    All kidding aside, I'll probably be heading out to Loyalhana creek tommorow, hopefully I'll catch my first fish of the season. I'll post pics if my camera works.

    That would suck especially because we don't have skunks in AK

    Good Luck fishing if the water is still as high as it was when I was in PA use big wooly buggers

    Well the fishing sucked. We got in about an hour of fishing before the rain came, not one hit. The creek was running about normal hieght and the water was pretty clear. I'll see if I can get my camera to upload the pictures.

    one of these days you had better catch some fish mang. i thought it was like fishing in a barrel up there

    we fished a farm pond yesterday while dodging some big storms. this pond had the biggest bluegill hybrids i've ever seen. 2 of them were over 11 inches and had to weigh close to 2 lbs apiece. just ate those fat bastards tonight. mmmm...goood shit.

    here's a friend and his little boy posing with the ones i took home to clean. he was having a blast.

    some big ass clouds over the heartland as a tornado warning kept us waiting up at the house for things to clear. one touched down within 5 miles of where we were.

    Why don't you whitewater kayak? Instead of bitching about high water, you'd be stoked!!

    I like fishing and all but I aint fucking around with leetches. No way. The thought of that makes me squirm. EWWW. I think our problem came more from the fact that Loyalhana is just over fished. I saw a few fish jumping but they are just to warry to take anything, allthough the weather was ideal for hungry fish, cool and rainy.

    Ohhh. I don't fly fish. I'll stick with mill worms and night crawlers.

    Well thats your problem right there, flies are usually far superior to bait for little trout
