Dosent matter now! Its all over up there! It was along time ago! The solitude of before internet is over. More people are willing to make the 3 hour drive for the quality of fishing. I diddent say I wasent did I? And paying guides is the BEST WAY to learn a new river or learn more about a river! Especially since every one you pay you tell up front, "Im here to learn not just catch a fish"! Its too bad I got dumped off to you! One things good though! I dont have to rely on the fishing! I do it cause I LOVE to fish! Not because Feller Bunchers have replaced me! We learned from the same people! You just diddent have to pay and you get trips handed to you! I work for them!
Its good to know that Jim was just joshing though!
Its still a wonderful place to fish!
