Re: Official Asylum Fly-fishing Thread
Man, you're killing me
I'm doing a Low Country/Crawfish Boil this afternoon, and celebrating my wifes birthday tomorrow, but next weekend, lookout!

Yesterday after work I decided to try that old favorite lake again. Loaded up and, vest (check), rod (check), reels (check), fins (check). Jumped in the car, started her up, took one last look around, and SH1T! Almost forgot my boots. Let's see, first the body and then the mind? Anyway, got to the lake, with all my gear, and had a great 3 hours where I picked up 9 healthy trout, 8-10".
Got home feeling all refreshed after a tough week at work and pulled a Juan Lopez Seleccion #1 out of the humidor and poured a healthy snifter of Bulleit Bourbon. Nice finish to a tough week at work. Hope your weekends are starting out as well as mine did. Here's to a long productive fishing season in '09!
