This is awesome for Boone but you couldn't drag me to Boone tomorrow with an 18 wheeler and a logging chain. I'll be waist deep in either the South Toe or Wilson Creek, haven't decided on which.

I went to Wilson Creek three weeks back and it was still too warm, had to stop fishing by 7:30am. If you go, let me know how it is. Hopefully the water temp has come down in the last few weeks.

They'll be good. It's been getting down in the 50s at night the last 7-10 days. I keep an eye on the Oconaluftee temps. It's the only USGS temp gauge in a naturally flowing stream on WNC that I know of.

Wilson generally runs a a few degrees cooler than the Oconaluftee in the DH section. The gorge gets WARM though. More along the lines of the Oconaluftee. 

The South Toe generally stays fishable upstream of Carolina Hemlocks unless there's significant drought (which there was in August). There was virtually no non-tailwaters trout waters in the greater NC area that were fishable for most of August. If the upper reaches of the South Toe are too warm then pretty much everything else is gonna be too.

Having a winning head to head record against your in-state rivals makes you the best football program on the state.

 

Sadly, only UNC fans agree with you. Enjoy watching game day this morning. They’ll be in Boone in case you didn’t know.

I'm on the South Toe. Just took a break to eat a snack. Yeah, it's good to go.

Catching mainly 10-12" stockers. A couple small wilds. Nothing over about 12" so far but it's been a good morning. Fast, shallow riffles have been producing the most fish.

I stood right here and caught four fish, including the above brown which has probably been the best fish of the morning so far.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Joe Person Draft Weekend inside info

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
