Opening Day of Trout '08


Trout opened this past Saturday. Drove up to Whig Hill, PA near Tionesta with Paul to fish with Primo and all Erie crowd. Lots of people there this year: Primo, Don, Scott, Daryl, Rob, Ron, Ben, Steen, Barry, Niles, Vantassle, Jay Johnson, and a couple visitors. Lots of inappropriate humor, obnoxious amounts of meat grilled to perfection, booze, and cards. Oh, and we went fishing, too. We pulled in around 30 fish between the 10 of us fishing. I ended up hauling in a nice fat rainbow to win the biggest fish pool ($50, sahweeet) - never did getting around to measure it before it was cleaned; maybe 17"? Fried and smoked most of the fish for consumption Saturday night along with four chikens on the spit, ribs, salmon, and various sausages from various animals. Started the De-tox today with a run with the dogs up on Greens Valley, but it was good to get away from reality if only for a few days.
