  So,

  you

• 0:54
  those
• 0:54
  fish
• 0:54
  are,
• 0:54
  a
• 0:55
  lot
• 0:55
  of
• 0:55
  them
• 0:55
  are
• 0:55
  gone
• 0:55
  and
• 0:56
  been
• 0:56
  cooked,
• 0:57
  as
• 0:57
  they
• 0:57
  like
• 0:57
  to
• 0:57
  say.
• 0:57
  We're
• 0:58
  in
• 0:58
  the
• 0:59
  cornmeal
• 0:59
  overcoat.
• 1:00
  So,
• 1:00
  you
• 1:00
  know,
• 1:00
  that
• 1:00
  also
• 1:01
  signals
• 1:01
  kind
• 1:01
  of
• 1:01
  the
• 1:01
  shift
• 1:02
  and
• 1:03
  the
• 1:03
  kind
• 1:03
  of
• 1:03
  the
• 1:03
  more
• 1:04
  technical
• 1:04
  summer
• 1:04
  fishing.
• 1:05
  But
• 1:05
  also
• 1:05
  too,
• 1:05
  we
• 1:06
  were
• 1:06
  talking
• 1:06
  before
• 1:06
  we
• 1:06
  started
• 1:07
  recording
• 1:07
  that,
• 1:08
  you
• 1:08
  know,
• 1:08
  everybody
• 1:09
  on
• 1:09
  the
• 1:09
  Eastern
• 1:09
  Seaboard,
• 1:10
  given
• 1:10
  the
• 1:10
  weather,
• 1:10
  had
• 1:11
  kind
• 1:11
  of
• 1:11
  a
• 1:11
  wonky
• 1:11
  spring
• 1:12
  where
• 1:12
  things
• 1:12
  were
• 1:12
  out
• 1:12
  of
• 1:12
  sequence
• 1:13
  and
• 1:13
  things
• 1:13
  were
• 1:13
  early.
• 1:14
  And
• 1:15
  it
• 1:15
  shouldn't
• 1:15
  surprise
• 1:15
  people
• 1:16
  if
• 1:16
  they
• 1:16
  see
• 1:16
  that
• 1:16
  translate
• 1:17
  into
• 1:17
  their
• 1:17
  life
• 1:18
  on
• 1:18
  the
• 1:18
  water
• 1:18
  in
• 1:18
  the
• 1:18
  summer.
• 1:20
  That's
• 1:20
  right.
• 1:20
  Yeah.
• 1:21
  A
• 1:21
  lot
• 1:21
  of
• 1:21
  the
• 1:21
  things
• 1:21
  that
• 1:22
  have
• 1:22
  gone
• 1:22
  on
• 1:22
  here
• 1:22
  is
• 1:23
  definitely
• 1:23
  several
• 1:24
  months
• 1:24
  off
• 1:24
  right
• 1:25
  now.
• 1:25
  So,
• 1:26
  you
• 1:26
  know,
• 1:26
  here
• 1:26
  it
• 1:26
  is
• 1:27
  the
• 1:27
  first
• 1:27
  of
• 1:27
  June,
• 1:28
  and
• 1:29
  we're
• 1:29
  already
• 1:30
  looking
• 1:30
  at,
• 1:30
  you
• 1:31
  know,
• 1:31
  fishing
• 1:31
  stuff
• 1:31
  that
• 1:31
  we'd
• 1:32
  normally
• 1:32
  fish
• 1:33
  like
• 1:33
  terrestrials
• 1:34
  in
• 1:34
  late
• 1:34
  July,
• 1:35
  August,
• 1:36
  you
• 1:36
  know,
• 1:36
  for
• 1:36
  this
• 1:36
  time
• 1:36
  of
• 1:37
  year.
• 1:37
  Because
• 1:37
  we've
• 1:38
  been
• 1:38
  using
• 1:38
  a
• 1:38
  lot
• 1:38
  of
• 1:38
  the
• 1:39
  more
• 1:40
  terrestrial
• 1:40
  game
• 1:40
  here
• 1:41
  the
• 1:41
  past
• 1:41
  few
• 1:41
  weeks
• 1:42
  and
• 1:43
  yeah,
• 1:43
  so
• 1:44
  I
• 1:44
  think
• 1:44
  it's
• 1:44
  happening
• 1:44
  everywhere
• 1:45
  here.
• 1:45
  I
• 1:45
  mean,
• 1:45
  whether
• 1:45
  you're
• 1:46
  on
• 1:46
  a
• 1:46
  freestone
• 1:46
  or
• 1:47
  the
• 1:47
  Tuckaseegee
• 1:47
  or
• 1:48
  Nantahala,
• 1:49
  I
• 1:49
  don't
• 1:49
  really
• 1:49
  care
• 1:50
  where
• 1:50
  you
• 1:50
  go.
• 1:50
  It's
• 1:50
  just
• 1:51
  everything's
• 1:51
  kind
• 1:51
  of
• 1:52
  off
• 1:53
  the
• 1:53
  same
• 1:53
  thing
• 1:53
  with
• 1:53
  the
• 1:53
  hatches
• 1:54
  that
• 1:54
  we
• 1:54
  did
• 1:55
  see
• 1:55
  back
• 1:55
  in
• 1:55
  the
• 1:55
  spring.
• 1:56
  You
• 1:56
  know,
• 1:56
  everything's
• 1:56
  like
• 1:57
  coming
• 1:57
  off
• 1:57
  at
• 1:57
  weird
• 1:58
  times.
• 1:59
  Yeah.
• 1:59
  And
• 1:59
  so,
• 2:00
  you
• 2:00
  know,
• 2:00
  obviously,
• 2:00
  you
• 2:01
  know,
• 2:01
  in
• 2:01
  the
• 2:01
  summertime
• 2:02
  you
• 2:02
  switch
• 2:02
  to
• 2:02
  the
• 2:02
  terrestrials
• 2:03
  because
• 2:03
  that's
• 2:03
  kind
• 2:03
  of
• 2:03
  what's
• 2:04
  in
• 2:04
  the
• 2:04
  system
• 2:04
  and
• 2:04
  that's
• 2:05
  kind
• 2:05
  of
• 2:05
  what
• 2:05
  the
• 2:05
  fish
• 2:05
  key
• 2:06
  in
• 2:06
  on.
• 2:06
  But
• 2:06
  also
• 2:06
  too,
• 2:07
  if
• 2:07
  you
• 2:07
  kind
• 2:07
  of
• 2:07
  think
• 2:07
  of
• 2:08
  a
• 2:08
  normal
• 2:09
  kind
• 2:09
  of
• 2:09
  hatch
• 2:09
  progression,
• 2:10
  you
• 2:10
  know,
• 2:11
  the
• 2:11
  hatches
• 2:11
  are
• 2:11
  in
• 2:11
  the
• 2:12
  spring
• 2:12
  and
• 2:12
  they
• 2:12
  diminish
• 2:13
  in
• 2:13
  frequency
• 2:13
  and
• 2:14
  size
• 2:15
  as
• 2:15
  we
• 2:15
  move
• 2:16
  into
• 2:16
  the
• 2:16
  summertime.
• 2:17
  And
• 2:17
  so
• 2:17
  what
• 2:17
  ends
• 2:17
  up
• 2:17
  happening,
• 2:18
  quite
• 2:18
  honestly,
• 2:18
  is
• 2:18
  you
• 2:19
  have
• 2:19
  less
• 2:19
  biomass
• 2:20
  in
• 2:20
  the
• 2:20
  river.
• 2:20
  So
• 2:20
  that's
• 2:21
  kind
• 2:21
  of
• 2:21
  one
• 2:21
  of
• 2:21
  the
• 2:21
  reasons
• 2:21
  why,
• 2:22
  you
• 2:22
  know,
• 2:22
  you've
• 2:23
  got
• 2:23
  that
• 2:23
  terrestrial
• 2:24
  game.
• 2:24
  But
• 2:24
  also
• 2:24
  too,
• 2:24
  while
• 2:25
  you
• 2:25
  and
• 2:25
  I
• 2:25
  were
• 2:25
  talking
• 2:25
  about
• 2:25
  this
• 2:26
  also
• 2:26
  before
• 2:26
  we
• 2:26
  started
• 2:26
  recording,
• 2:27
  you
• 2:28
  need
• 2:28
  to
• 2:28
  think
• 2:28
  about
• 2:28
  like,
• 2:30
  like
• 2:30
  fall
• 2:31
  winter
• 2:31
  tactics
• 2:32
  when
• 2:32
  you
• 2:32
  fish,
• 2:32
  when
• 2:32
  there's
• 2:33
  less
• 2:33
  biomass
• 2:33
  in
• 2:33
  the
• 2:34
  water.
• 2:34
  Right?
• 2:35
  That's
• 2:36
  right,
• 2:36
  yeah.
• 2:37
  And
• 2:37
  just
• 2:37
  relying
• 2:38
  more
• 2:38
  on
• 2:38
  the
• 2:39
  things
• 2:39
  that
• 2:39
  are
• 2:40
  happening.
• 2:40
  Like,
• 2:40
  I
• 2:40
  did
• 2:40
  a
• 2:40
  big
• 2:41
  hike
• 2:41
  yesterday
• 2:42
  up
• 2:42
  towards
• 2:42
  Clingman's
• 2:44
  from
• 2:44
  the
• 2:44
  house,
• 2:44
  just
• 2:45
  hiking,
• 2:45
  you
• 2:45
  know,
• 2:45
  and
• 2:45
  I
• 2:46
  saw
• 2:46
  like
• 2:46
  30
• 2:47
  big
• 2:47
  green
• 2:47
  worms
• 2:48
  falling
• 2:48
  out
• 2:48
  of
• 2:48
  the
• 2:49
  tree
• 2:49
  branches
• 2:49
  that
• 2:49
  were
• 2:49
  like
• 2:50
  falling
• 2:50
  right
• 2:50
  into
• 2:50
  the
• 2:50
  trail.
• 2:51
  I
• 2:52
  walked
• 2:52
  through
• 2:52
  several
• 2:52
  of
• 2:52
  them.
• 2:53
  You
• 2:53
  know,
• 2:53
  the
• 2:53
  little
• 2:53
  silk
• 2:53
  line
• 2:54
  that
• 2:54
  they
• 2:54
  come
• 2:54
  out
• 2:54
  of
• 2:54
  the
• 2:54
  tree
• 2:55
  with.
• 2:55
  And
• 2:56
  so
• 2:56
  definitely
• 2:56
  the
• 2:56
  inchworm
• 2:57
  game
• 2:57
  is
• 2:57
  on
• 2:58
  already.
• 2:58
  I
• 2:58
  mean,
• 2:58
  normally
• 2:59
  that's
• 2:59
  a
• 2:59
  July,
• 3:00
  August,
• 3:01
  September
• 3:01
  thing
• 3:02
  and
• 3:02
  we're,
• 3:02
  we're
• 3:02
  already
• 3:03
  seeing
• 3:03
  it
• 3:03
  in
• 3:03
  full
• 3:03
  force.
• 3:04
  And
• 3:05
  I
• 3:05
  think
• 3:05
  that's
• 3:05
  also
• 3:06
  from
• 3:06
  the
• 3:06
  type
• 3:06
  of
• 3:06
  weather
• 3:07
  we've
• 3:07
  had
• 3:07
  the
• 3:07
  past
• 3:07
  six,
• 3:08
  you
• 3:08
  know,
• 3:08
  five
• 3:08
  months
• 3:09
  here.
• 3:09
  So,
• 3:10
  so
• 3:11
  yeah,
• 3:11
  the,
• 3:12
  the
• 3:12
  biomass,
• 3:13
  as
• 3:13
  it
• 3:13
  gets
• 3:13
  low,
• 3:14
  they're
• 3:14
  going
• 3:14
  to
• 3:14
  depend
• 3:14
  more
• 3:14
  and
• 3:15
  more
• 3:15
  on
• 3:15
  terrestrial
• 3:16
  game.
• 3:17
  And
• 3:17
  I
• 3:17
  mean,
• 3:17
  I
• 3:17
  love
• 3:17
  the
• 3:18
  terrestrial
• 3:18
  game,
• 3:18
  so
• 3:18
  I
• 3:19
  don't,
• 3:19
  I'm
• 3:19
  not
• 3:19
  complaining.
• 3:19
  I
• 3:20
  just
• 3:21
  assume
• 3:21
  throw
• 3:21
  a
• 3:21
  flying
• 3:22
  at
• 3:22
  this
• 3:22
  time
• 3:22
  of
• 3:23
  year
• 3:23
  as
• 3:24
  anybody.
• 3:24
  So
• 3:24
  I
• 3:24
  mean,
• 3:25
  that's
• 3:25
  the
• 3:25
  kind
• 3:25
  of
• 3:25
  stuff
• 3:25
  though
• 3:26
  that
• 3:26
  we're
• 3:26
  doing
• 3:26
  a
• 3:26
  lot,
• 3:26
  which
• 3:27
  is
• 3:27
  it
• 3:27
  just
• 3:27
  kind
• 3:27
  of
• 3:28
  shifts
• 3:28
  everything
• 3:29
  to
• 3:30
  go
• 3:30
  on
• 3:30
  the,
• 3:30
  go
• 3:30
  on
• 3:30
  the
• 3:31
  water
• 3:31
  and
• 3:31
  think,
• 3:31
  you
• 3:31
  know,
• 3:32
  several
• 3:32
  months
• 3:32
  down
• 3:32
  the
• 3:33
  road.
• 3:34
  Yeah.
• 3:34
  And
• 3:34
  so
• 3:34
  it's
• 3:35
  interesting.
• 3:35
  Right.
• 3:35
  So,
• 3:35
  you
• 3:36
  know,
• 3:36
  we
• 3:36
  see
• 3:36
  kind
• 3:36
  of
• 3:36
  an
• 3:36
  acceleration
• 3:37
  in
• 3:37
  bug
• 3:38
  activity
• 3:38
  this
• 3:38
  year.
• 3:40
  Are
• 3:40
  you
• 3:40
  seeing
• 3:40
  the
• 3:40
  same
• 3:41
  thing
• 3:41
  kind
• 3:41
  of
• 3:41
  on
• 3:41
  the
• 3:41
  bait
• 3:42
  fish
• 3:42
  front?
• 3:42
  You
• 3:42
  know,
• 3:42
  did
• 3:43
  those
• 3:43
  hatches
• 3:43
  come
• 3:43
  off
• 3:43
  earlier,
• 3:44
  so
• 3:44
  the
• 3:44
  fry
• 3:44
  are
• 3:45
  at
• 3:45
  a
• 3:45
  larger
• 3:45
  size
• 3:46
  than
• 3:46
  they
• 3:46
  would
• 3:46
  normally
• 3:46
  be
• 3:47
  this
• 3:47
  time
• 3:47
  of
• 3:47
  year?
• 3:48
  Or
• 3:48
  do
• 3:48
  you
• 3:48
  think
• 3:48
  that's
• 3:48
  kind
• 3:48
  of
• 3:49
  more
• 3:49
  on
• 3:49
  a
• 3:49
  traditional
• 3:49
  pattern?
• 3:51
  Um,
• 3:53
  yeah,
• 3:54
  I
• 3:54
  think
• 3:54
  it's
• 3:54
  probably
• 3:54
  more
• 3:55
  on
• 3:55
  the,
• 3:55
  on
• 3:55
  the
• 3:56
  traditional
• 3:56
  pattern,
• 3:57
  if
• 3:58
  I
• 3:58
  had
• 3:58
  to
• 3:58
  guess.
• 3:58
  Cause
• 3:58
  I've
• 3:59
  seen,
• 3:59
  I've
• 3:59
  seen
• 3:59
  a
• 3:59
  lot
• 3:59
  of
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  fry
• 4:01
  from
• 4:01
  over
• 4:01
  winter
• 4:02
  and
• 4:02
  I've
• 4:02
  seen
• 4:02
  a
• 4:02
  lot
• 4:02
  of
• 4:02
  the,
• 4:03
  you
• 4:03
  know,
• 4:03
  this,
• 4:04
  this
• 4:04
  time
• 4:04
  of
• 4:04
  year.
• 4:06
  You
• 4:06
  know,
• 4:06
  the
• 4:06
  way
• 4:06
  you
• 4:07
  can
• 4:07
  really
• 4:07
  tell
• 4:07
  it
• 4:07
  is
• 4:07
  like
• 4:07
  July,
• 4:08
  August,
• 4:08
  you
• 4:08
  start
• 4:09
  to
• 4:09
  see
• 4:09
  a
• 4:09
  lot
• 4:09
  of
• 4:09
  dace
• 4:09
  and
• 4:10
  creek
• 4:10
  chub
• 4:10
  and
• 4:10
  things
• 4:10
  like
• 4:11
  that.
• 4:12
  That's
• 4:12
  how
• 4:12
  you
• 4:12
  can
• 4:12
  tell
• 4:13
  what
• 4:13
  we're
• 4:13
  talking
• 4:13
  about
• 4:13
  in
• 4:13
  biomass
• 4:14
  is
• 4:14
  we're
• 4:14
  seeing
• 4:15
  those
• 4:15
  species
• 4:15
  of
• 4:15
  fish
• 4:16
  already
• 4:16
  in
• 4:16
  early
• 4:16
  June,
• 4:18
  you
• 4:18
  know
• 4:18
  what
• 4:18
  I
• 4:18
  mean?
• 4:18
  I
• 4:18
  mean,
• 4:19
  even
• 4:19
  though
• 4:19
  there's
• 4:19
  a
• 4:19
  lot
• 4:19
  of
• 4:19
  trout
• 4:20
  in
• 4:20
  there,
• 4:20
  those
• 4:21
  other
• 4:21
  fish
• 4:21
  species
• 4:22
  will
• 4:22
  start,
• 4:22
  you
• 4:23
  know,
• 4:23
  you'll
• 4:23
  go
• 4:23
  out
• 4:23
  and
• 4:24
  you'll
• 4:24
  be
• 4:24
  throwing
• 4:24
  terrestrials
• 4:25
  and
• 4:25
  things
• 4:25
  and
• 4:25
  you're
• 4:25
  catching,
• 4:25
  you
• 4:26
  know,
• 4:26
  Chub
• 4:26
  Creek
• 4:27
  Chub
• 4:27
  7,
• 4:27
  8
• 4:28
  inches,
• 4:29
  you'll
• 4:29
  see
• 4:29
  dace.
• 4:30
  I
• 4:30
  mean,
• 4:30
  then
• 4:30
  you'll
• 4:30
  every
• 4:31
  now
• 4:31
  and
• 4:31
  then
• 4:31
  you'll
• 4:31
  get
• 4:31
  a
• 4:31
  trout
• 4:32
  and
• 4:32
  then
• 4:32
  you're
• 4:32
  back
• 4:32
  to
• 4:33
  a
• 4:33
  dace.
• 4:33
  And
• 4:33
  it's
• 4:34
  like,
• 4:34
  normally
• 4:34
  that
• 4:34
  would
• 4:34
  happen
• 4:36
  a
• 4:36
  lot
• 4:36
  up
• 4:36
  in
• 4:37
  middle
• 4:37
  of
• 4:37
  July
• 4:38
  and
• 4:39
  here
• 4:39
  it
• 4:39
  is
• 4:39
  the
• 4:39
  first
• 4:40
  week
• 4:40
  of
• 4:40
  June
• 4:40
  and
• 4:40
  we're
• 4:40
  seeing
• 4:41
  it
• 4:41
  still.
• 4:41
  So
• 4:42
  I
• 4:42
  mean,
• 4:42
  this
• 4:42
  early,
• 4:43
  so
• 4:43
  that
• 4:43
  kind
• 4:43
  of
• 4:44
  tells
• 4:44
  you
• 4:44
  the,
• 4:45
  the
• 4:45
  answer
• 4:46
  with
• 4:46
  seeing
• 4:47
  those
• 4:47
  types
• 4:47
  of
• 4:47
  fish.
• 4:48
  And
• 4:48
  it's
• 4:49
  moved
• 4:49
  up,
• 4:49
  you
• 4:49
  know,
• 4:49
  that
• 4:50
  much
• 4:50
  already.
• 4:50
  So
• 4:52
  hopefully,
• 4:52
  hopefully
• 4:53
  we
• 4:53
  keep
• 4:53
  getting
• 4:53
  these
• 4:53
  rains
• 4:54
  and
• 4:54
  it'll,
• 4:54
  it'll
• 4:55
  stay
• 4:55
  good.
• 4:55
  You
• 4:55
  know,
• 4:56
  it's
• 4:57
  just
• 4:57
  hard
• 4:57
  to
• 4:57
  predict,
• 4:57
  you
• 4:58
  know,
• 4:58
  when
• 4:58
  people
• 4:58
  call
• 4:58
  and
• 4:58
  say,
• 4:59
  Marvin,
• 4:59
  what
• 4:59
  do
• 4:59
  you
• 4:59
  think
• 4:59
  it's
• 5:00
  going
• 5:00
  to
• 5:00
  be
• 5:01
  in
• 5:01
  July?
• 5:01
  Well,
• 5:02
  I
• 5:02
  don't
• 5:02
  know
• 5:02
  what
• 5:02
  July
• 5:03
  is
• 5:03
  going
• 5:03
  to
• 5:03
  bring.
• 5:04
  I
• 5:04
  mean,
• 5:04
  it's
• 5:04
  hard
• 5:05
  to
• 5:05
  predict
• 5:05
  the
• 5:05
  next
• 5:05
  week,
• 5:06
  much
• 5:06
  less
• 5:06
  a
• 5:06
  month.
• 5:08
  So
• 5:08
  I
• 5:08
  don't
• 5:08
  know.
• 5:09
  But
• 5:09
  that's
• 5:09
  one
• 5:09
  of
• 5:09
  the
• 5:09
  classic
• 5:10
  things
• 5:10
  people
• 5:10
  always
• 5:10
  will
• 5:11
  ask
• 5:11
  you,
• 5:11
  you
• 5:11
  know,
• 5:12
  and
• 5:12
  that
• 5:13
  makes
• 5:13
  it
• 5:13
  tricky.
• 5:13
  So
• 5:13
  what
• 5:14
  I
• 5:14
  did,
• 5:15
  there's
• 5:15
  a
• 5:16
  new
• 5:16
  page
• 5:16
  up
• 5:16
  there
• 5:17
  on
• 5:17
  the
• 5:17
  site,
• 5:17
  Marvin,
• 5:18
  that'll
• 5:18
  help
• 5:18
  people
• 5:18
  and
• 5:18
  it
• 5:19
  gives
• 5:19
  a
• 5:19
  live
• 5:19
  fishing
• 5:20
  report
• 5:21
  and
• 5:21
  then
• 5:21
  you
• 5:22
  can
• 5:22
  check
• 5:22
  water
• 5:22
  temp,
• 5:23
  cfs.
• 5:23
  It'll
• 5:23
  tell
• 5:23
  you
• 5:24
  all
• 5:24
  the
• 5:24
  stuff
• 5:24
  that's
• 5:24
  coming
• 5:24
  off
• 5:25
  and
• 5:25
  what
• 5:25
  we're
• 5:25
  actually
• 5:25
  fishing
• 5:26
  as
• 5:26
  we
• 5:26
  go
• 5:26
  every
• 5:26
  day.
• 5:27
  So
• 5:28
  that
• 5:28
  might
• 5:28
  be
• 5:28
  beneficial
• 5:29
  to
• 5:29
  some
• 5:29
  of
• 5:29
  them
• 5:29
  listening.
• 5:31
  Yeah.
• 5:31
  And
• 5:31
  so
• 5:31
  I
• 5:32
  would
• 5:32
  say,
• 5:32
  folks
• 5:32
  also
• 5:32
  come
• 5:33
  back
• 5:33
  to
• 5:33
  first
• 5:33
  principles,
• 5:34
  right.
• 5:34
  So,
• 5:34
  you
• 5:35
  know,
• 5:35
  you
• 5:35
  know,
• 5:36
  use
• 5:36
  your
• 5:36
  eyes.
• 5:36
  Like
• 5:36
  Mac
• 5:37
  says,
• 5:37
  if
• 5:37
  you
• 5:37
  see
• 5:38
  inchworms
• 5:38
  dropping
• 5:39
  out
• 5:39
  of
• 5:39
  the
• 5:39
  trees
• 5:39
  and
• 5:39
  you
• 5:39
  see
• 5:40
  beetles
• 5:40
  and
• 5:40
  ants,
• 5:40
  you
• 5:40
  should
• 5:41
  fish
• 5:41
  them.
• 5:42
  But
• 5:42
  then
• 5:42
  also
• 5:42
  too
• 5:43
  understand
• 5:43
  that
• 5:43
  we're
• 5:44
  probably
• 5:44
  maybe
• 5:45
  60
• 5:45
  days
• 5:45
  ahead
• 5:46
  of
• 5:46
  where
• 5:46
  we
• 5:46
  normally
• 5:46
  are.
• 5:47
  So
• 5:47
  kind
• 5:47
  of,
• 5:48
  you
• 5:48
  know,
• 5:48
  add
• 5:49
  60
• 5:49
  days
• 5:49
  to
• 5:49
  whatever
• 5:50
  date
• 5:50
  you
• 5:50
  get
• 5:50
  on
• 5:50
  the
• 5:50
  water.
• 5:50
  Those
• 5:51
  would
• 5:51
  be
• 5:51
  kind
• 5:51
  of
• 5:51
  two
• 5:51
  things
• 5:52
  I
• 5:52
  think
• 5:52
  you
• 5:52
  should
• 5:52
  do
• 5:52
  to
• 5:52
  kind
• 5:53
  of,
• 5:53
  kind
• 5:53
  of
• 5:54
  help
• 5:54
  you
• 5:54
  out,
• 5:54
  right?
• 5:55
  Oh,
• 5:56
  yeah,
• 5:56
  yeah.
• 5:56
  Just
• 5:56
  paying
• 5:57
  attention.
• 5:57
  Observation
• 5:58
  is
• 5:58
  so
• 5:59
  key.
• 6:00
  You
• 6:00
  know,
• 6:00
  getting
• 6:00
  somewhere
• 6:01
  and
• 6:01
  looking
• 6:01
  around,
• 6:03
  that
• 6:03
  takes
• 6:03
  a
• 6:03
  lot
• 6:03
  of
• 6:03
  discipline,
• 6:04
  I
• 6:04
  think.
• 6:04
  You
• 6:05
  know,
• 6:05
  you
• 6:05
  hear
• 6:05
  a
• 6:05
  lot
• 6:06
  of
• 6:06
  people
• 6:06
  talk
• 6:06
  about
• 6:06
  that
• 6:07
  for
• 6:07
  years.
• 6:07
  I
• 6:07
  remember
• 6:09
  several
• 6:09
  of
• 6:09
  the
• 6:09
  seminars
• 6:10
  years
• 6:10
  ago
• 6:10
  when
• 6:10
  I
• 6:10
  was
• 6:11
  just
• 6:11
  a
• 6:11
  Kid
• 6:11
  watching,
• 6:11
  like,
• 6:12
  Whitlock
• 6:12
  and
• 6:12
  a
• 6:12
  lot
• 6:12
  of
• 6:13
  my
• 6:13
  heroes
• 6:13
  on
• 6:13
  the
• 6:13
  road.
• 6:14
  Like,
• 6:15
  it
• 6:15
  shows.
• 6:15
  You
• 6:15
  know,
• 6:15
  when
• 6:16
  I
• 6:16
  was
• 6:16
  young,
• 6:16
  I'd
• 6:16
  go
• 6:16
  listen
• 6:17
  to
• 6:17
  these
• 6:17
  people
• 6:17
  speak,
• 6:18
  you
• 6:18
  know,
• 6:18
  they'd
• 6:19
  emphasize
• 6:19
  and
• 6:19
  emphasize.
• 6:20
  And
• 6:20
  I
• 6:20
  was
• 6:20
  more.
• 6:21
  More
• 6:21
  in
• 6:21
  the
• 6:21
  school
• 6:21
  of
• 6:23
  hit
• 6:23
  the
• 6:23
  water
• 6:23
  and
• 6:23
  go,
• 6:24
  you
• 6:24
  know,
• 6:24
  at
• 6:24
  that
• 6:24
  age.
• 6:25
  But,
• 6:25
  I
• 6:25
  mean,
• 6:25
  the
• 6:25
  older
• 6:26
  I
• 6:26
  get,
• 6:26
  I
• 6:26
  really
• 6:27
  do
• 6:27
  think
• 6:27
  there's
• 6:27
  a.
• 6:28
  There
• 6:28
  was
• 6:28
  a
• 6:28
  whole
• 6:28
  lot
• 6:28
  of
• 6:28
  wisdom
• 6:29
  of
• 6:30
  what
• 6:30
  those
• 6:30
  guys
• 6:31
  were
• 6:31
  preaching
• 6:31
  back
• 6:31
  then.
• 6:32
  And
• 6:32
  I
• 6:33
  guess
• 6:33
  that
• 6:34
  I
• 6:34
  appreciate
• 6:35
  it
• 6:35
  a
• 6:35
  lot
• 6:35
  more,
• 6:35
  you
• 6:36
  know,
• 6:36
  paying
• 6:36
  attention
• 6:36
  to
• 6:37
  Looking
• 6:37
  more
• 6:38
  first,
• 6:38
  you
• 6:38
  know,
• 6:38
  and
• 6:38
  just
• 6:39
  paying
• 6:39
  attention
• 6:39
  to
• 6:39
  that.
• 6:39
  I
• 6:40
  remember
• 6:40
  at
• 6:41
  Nantahala
• 6:42
  years
• 6:42
  ago,
• 6:42
  when
• 6:42
  I
• 6:42
  lived
• 6:43
  out
• 6:43
  there
• 6:43
  in
• 6:43
  Wesser.
• 6:44
  Wesser
• 6:44
  Creek,
• 6:44
  right
• 6:45
  above
• 6:45
  the
• 6:45
  outdoor
• 6:45
  center,
• 6:47
  that'd
• 6:47
  be
• 6:47
  the
• 6:47
  first
• 6:48
  thing
• 6:48
  I'd
• 6:48
  do
• 6:48
  because
• 6:48
  I
• 6:48
  fished
• 6:49
  that
• 6:49
  pretty
• 6:49
  regular
• 6:50
  every
• 6:50
  night
• 6:50
  right
• 6:50
  in
• 6:50
  back
• 6:51
  of
• 6:51
  the
• 6:51
  store
• 6:51
  where
• 6:52
  Silver
• 6:52
  Mine
• 6:52
  Creek
• 6:52
  would
• 6:53
  pour
• 6:53
  into
• 6:53
  the
• 6:53
  Nantahala.
• 6:54
  And
• 6:55
  they
• 6:55
  have
• 6:55
  all
• 6:55
  those
• 6:55
  lights
• 6:55
  in
• 6:56
  the
• 6:56
  back
• 6:56
  of
• 6:56
  the
• 6:56
  store.
• 6:56
  And
• 6:56
  so
• 6:57
  all
• 6:57
  you
• 6:57
  had
• 6:57
  to
• 6:57
  do,
• 6:57
  there's
• 6:57
  hundreds
• 6:58
  of
• 6:58
  spider
• 6:59
  webs
• 7:00
  below
• 7:00
  the,
• 7:00
  you
• 7:01
  know,
• 7:01
  the
• 7:01
  deck
• 7:01
  there
• 7:01
  at
• 7:01
  the
• 7:02
  store.
• 7:02
  Then
• 7:02
  I
• 7:02
  see.
• 7:03
  So
• 7:03
  you
• 7:03
  just
• 7:03
  get
• 7:03
  out
• 7:03
  there
• 7:04
  and
• 7:04
  you
• 7:04
  look
• 7:04
  at
• 7:04
  the
• 7:04
  spider
• 7:04
  web
• 7:05
  and
• 7:05
  there's
• 7:05
  your
• 7:05
  answer.
• 7:06
  You
• 7:06
  study
• 7:06
  that
• 7:06
  first,
• 7:07
  walk
• 7:07
  around,
• 7:07
  pay
• 7:08
  attention
• 7:08
  to
• 7:08
  that,
• 7:08
  and
• 7:08
  you
• 7:08
  already
• 7:09
  know
• 7:09
  what's
• 7:09
  going
• 7:09
  on,
• 7:09
  and
• 7:10
  that's
• 7:11
  probably
• 7:11
  what
• 7:11
  you
• 7:11
  want
• 7:11
  to
• 7:11
  imitate.
• 7:13
  And.
• 7:13
  Yeah,
• 7:14
  so
• 7:14
  it
• 7:14
  took
• 7:15
  a
• 7:15
  while
• 7:15
  for.
• 7:15
  You
• 7:15
  know,
• 7:16
  when
• 7:16
  I
• 7:16
  look
• 7:16
  back
• 7:16
  at,
• 7:16
  over
• 7:17
  the
• 7:17
  decades
• 7:17
  of
• 7:17
  doing
• 7:18
  this,
• 7:18
  of
• 7:19
  how
• 7:19
  that
• 7:19
  starts
• 7:19
  to
• 7:20
  creep
• 7:20
  into
• 7:20
  your,
• 7:21
  I
• 7:21
  guess,
• 7:21
  your
• 7:22
  habits,
• 7:22
  you
• 7:22
  know
• 7:23
  what
• 7:23
  I
• 7:23
  mean?
• 7:23
  The
• 7:23
  habits
• 7:23
  of
• 7:23
  what
• 7:24
  you
• 7:24
  regularly
• 7:24
  do.
• 7:24
  Instead
• 7:25
  of
• 7:25
  just
• 7:25
  rig
• 7:25
  up
• 7:25
  and
• 7:25
  start
• 7:26
  going,
• 7:27
  then
• 7:27
  it.
• 7:27
  You
• 7:27
  start
• 7:27
  seeing
• 7:28
  the
• 7:28
  dividends
• 7:28
  pay
• 7:28
  off
• 7:29
  bigger
• 7:29
  and
• 7:29
  bigger
• 7:29
  by
• 7:30
  using
• 7:31
  those
• 7:31
  habits
• 7:31
  when
• 7:31
  you
• 7:31
  go.
• 7:32
  Yeah,
• 7:33
  I
• 7:33
  mean,
• 7:33
  for
• 7:33
  sure.
• 7:34
  I
• 7:34
  mean,
• 7:34
  I
• 7:34
  would.
• 7:34
  As
• 7:34
  I
• 7:35
  always
• 7:35
  say,
• 7:35
  you
• 7:35
  know,
• 7:36
  consistent
• 7:36
  process
• 7:37
  gets
• 7:37
  you
• 7:37
  consistent
• 7:38
  results.
• 7:40
  Yeah,
• 7:40
  Yeah.
• 7:41
  I
• 7:41
  like
• 7:41
  process.
• 7:42
  I
• 7:42
  know
• 7:42
  you
• 7:42
  like
• 7:42
  process
• 7:43
  a
• 7:43
  lot,
• 7:43
  Marvin.
• 7:44
  So,
• 7:44
  yeah,
• 7:45
  process
• 7:45
  is
• 7:45
  just
• 7:46
  like.
• 7:46
  I
• 7:46
  don't
• 7:46
  know
• 7:46
  any
• 7:46
  other
• 7:47
  way
• 7:47
  to
• 7:47
  do
• 7:47
  it
• 7:47
  except
• 7:48
  keep
• 7:48
  thinking
• 7:48
  about,
• 7:49
  try
• 7:49
  to
• 7:49
  develop
• 7:49
  a
• 7:49
  little
• 7:49
  more
• 7:50
  efficient
• 7:51
  process
• 7:51
  that
• 7:52
  leads
• 7:52
  to
• 7:52
  the
• 7:52
  result
• 7:52
  where
• 7:53
  you're
• 7:53
  trying
• 7:53
  to
• 7:53
  get
• 7:53
  to.
• 7:53
  And
• 7:54
  the
• 7:54
  more
• 7:54
  times
• 7:55
  you,
• 7:56
  you
• 7:57
  know,
• 7:57
  see
• 7:57
  that
• 7:57
  happen
• 7:58
  and
• 7:58
  you're
• 7:58
  moving
• 7:59
  forward
• 7:59
  instead
• 7:59
  of
• 8:00
  taking
• 8:00
  a
• 8:00
  step
• 8:00
  backwards,
• 8:02
  then
• 8:02
  I
• 8:03
  think
• 8:03
  it
• 8:03
  starts
• 8:03
  to
• 8:04
  become
• 8:04
  deeper
• 8:04
  and
• 8:04
  deeper,
• 8:05
  ingrained,
• 8:05
  you
• 8:05
  know?
• 8:06
  Yeah.
• 8:06
  So,
• 8:07
  folks,
• 8:07
  hopefully
• 8:07
  those
• 8:07
  are
• 8:08
  some
• 8:08
  tips.
• 8:08
  As,
• 8:08
  you
• 8:08
  know,
• 8:08
  we
• 8:09
  kind
• 8:09
  of,
• 8:09
  you
• 8:09
  know,
• 8:09
  schools
• 8:10
  out,
• 8:10
  people
• 8:10
  are
• 8:10
  traveling
• 8:11
  and
• 8:11
  fishing.
• 8:12
  Maybe
• 8:12
  he'll
• 8:12
  help
• 8:13
  you,
• 8:13
  maybe
• 8:13
  tilt
• 8:13
  the
• 8:14
  odds
• 8:14
  a
• 8:14
  little
• 8:14
  bit
• 8:14
  in
• 8:14
  your
• 8:15
  favor.
• 8:15
  And,
• 8:15
  you
• 8:15
  know,
• 8:15
  Mac,
• 8:16
  even
• 8:16
  though
• 8:16
  DH
• 8:17
  Is
• 8:17
  gone,
• 8:17
  you're
• 8:17
  still
• 8:18
  running
• 8:18
  guide
• 8:18
  trips.
• 8:19
  You
• 8:20
  know,
• 8:20
  you've
• 8:20
  got
• 8:20
  some
• 8:21
  I
• 8:21
  guess
• 8:21
  subject
• 8:21
  matter
• 8:22
  like
• 8:22
  weekends
• 8:23
  and
• 8:23
  you've
• 8:23
  got
• 8:24
  casting
• 8:24
  lessons
• 8:24
  you
• 8:24
  want
• 8:25
  to
• 8:25
  let
• 8:25
  folks
• 8:25
  know
• 8:25
  how
• 8:26
  book
• 8:26
  any
• 8:27
  of
• 8:27
  those
• 8:27
  things
• 8:27
  and
• 8:27
  how
• 8:27
  to
• 8:27
  get
• 8:27
  in
• 8:28
  touch
• 8:28
  and
• 8:28
  all
• 8:28
  that
• 8:28
  kind
• 8:28
  of
• 8:28
  good
• 8:28
  stuff.
• 8:30
  Yeah
• 8:30
  but
• 8:31
  the
• 8:31
  best
• 8:31
  way
• 8:31
  is
• 8:31
  really
• 8:32
  go
• 8:32
  on
• 8:32
  the
• 8:32
  website
• 8:32
  we
• 8:33
  spent
• 8:33
  a
• 8:33
  lot
• 8:33
  of
• 8:33
  time
• 8:33
  on
• 8:34
  that
• 8:34
  the
• 8:34
  past
• 8:34
  couple
• 8:34
  ofweeks
• 8:35
  and
• 8:35
  macbrownflyfish.com
• 8:37
  or
• 8:37
  flyfishingguideschool.com
• 8:39
  and
• 8:39
  they've
• 8:39
  been
• 8:39
  revamped
• 8:40
  and
• 8:41
  they're
• 8:41
  all
• 8:42
  up
• 8:42
  and
• 8:43
  running
• 8:43
  so
• 8:43
  yeah
• 8:43
  that's
• 8:44
  a
• 8:44
  lot
• 8:44
  easier
• 8:45
  to
• 8:46
  navigate
• 8:46
  than
• 8:47
  what
• 8:47
  I
• 8:47
  had
• 8:47
  up
• 8:48
  there
• 8:48
  before
• 8:48
  you
• 8:48
  know
• 8:49
  so
• 8:49
  that's
• 8:49
  why
• 8:49
  I
• 8:49
  spent
• 8:49
  all
• 8:50
  this
• 8:51
  last
• 8:51
  few
• 8:51
  weeks
• 8:52
  kind
• 8:52
  of
• 8:52
  playing
• 8:52
  with
• 8:52
  that
• 8:52
  in
• 8:53
  between
• 8:53
  trips
• 8:53
  and
• 8:53
  staying
• 8:54
  up
• 8:54
  late
• 8:54
  nights
• 8:54
  and
• 8:55
  but
• 8:55
  it's
• 8:55
  pretty
• 8:56
  self
• 8:56
  explanatory
• 8:57
  I
• 8:57
  think
• 8:57
  when
• 8:57
  they
• 8:57
  get
• 8:57
  on
• 8:58
  that
• 8:58
  they'll
• 8:58
  know
• 8:58
  exactly
• 8:59
  what
• 8:59
  they're
• 8:59
  interested
• 9:00
  in
• 9:00
  to
• 9:00
  navigate
• 9:01
  know
• 9:02
  yeah
• 9:03
  absolutely.
• 9:03
  Well
• 9:03
  listen
• 9:04
  folks
• 9:04
  as
• 9:04
  I
• 9:04
  always
• 9:04
  say
• 9:05
  yo
• 9:05
  it
• 9:05
  to
• 9:05
  yourself
• 9:05
  to
• 9:06
  get
• 9:06
  out
• 9:06
  there
• 9:06
  and
• 9:06
  catch
• 9:06
  a
• 9:07
  few
• 9:07
  tight
• 9:07
  lines
• 9:08
  everybody.
• 9:08
  Tight
• 9:09
  lines
• 9:09
  Mac.
• 9:10
  Tight
