Title: Creek Side Fly fishin
Post by: JODakota on August 16, 2012, 09:47:03 PM: So Sunday was the first full day off I have had off in about 3 months literally so I woke up with the thought of going scouting for the upcoming season. So naturally I drove up to what I like to call Jesse's paradise. I get there do some hiking. From where I sat on the mountain I could see the creek calling my name. So instead of scouting, the afternoon turned into a "love affair" with the river. Here's some photos of probably the most relaxing day I have had all summer.

Hiking in
