I was blessed enough to go fishing for some native fish with the man, the myth, the legend Mr. Dbeam! We went searching for a Smokies native hat trick on the fly but the wily browns escaped him. They were scared of the beam or maybe it was the blue sunny skies, who knows!

I thoroughly enjoyed my time fishing with Darrell. Learned a lot about fishing and life while getting to be around a great man. However, there is a feller named RouseD... From my understanding, he is quite the card. He hangs around some shady characters but no one holds that against him. He has been developing a super secret WNC Trout Fly since his last Fishing Trip of Terror the hills! I was blessed enough to receive one of these cherished fish magnets. Well, I tied one on and honest to goodness, the third cast - BAM! Dennis, you get bragging rights on that one!!!

Thanks again Darrell! I really appreciated getting to fish with you!

That fly is top secret. Actually, I had no idea what it would do. I ran across it while looking for other flies, and tied some up because they were easy. Since I am a flat lander, and rarely get to the mtns, I decided to see if I could get someone to try this fly. Thanks Bruce for taking a huge chance on it. lol

Thanks for the pics and the story.

I've been fishing (lets say catching) with both of them, dBeam and RouseD. I would have enjoyed the trips if I had not gotten a bite. Both are helpful and give you serious comment that helps. I would recommend either for extended time on a porch with a cold libation discussing how they do it without being over zelous. If you can find the time to match their time I would recommend a trip to the water with either one of them.

Looks like a great day in the outdoors with one of our "Forefathers" of the water.... Nice scenery and sure lots of helpful information was given.

Way to go Darrell....

Anyone notice that awesome cast from under the tree limbs in the 1st pic? Looks a lot like my casting, but maybe Darrell managed a cast from under those tree limbs. I am used to more open places to do my casting, so not sure how I would do in so many tight spots.

I agree completely. Darrell took me on my first trout outing last fall, and I enjoyed every minute and learned a lot. I spent a day on a boat in Bayboro with RouesD last summer and am still laughing at some of the shenanigans that went on!
