I was fishing Thursday 12/6 and lost my wading staff on the creek, just below the deer sign turn, just past the general store near the bridge. It is an Orvis staff and its green in color. The flows were pretty high yesterday, so who knows where its going to end up, but if anyone comes across it I would appreciate it if they could let me know. Now about the fishing for the day. I still managed to have a nice day, hooked 7 total and landed 3. I actually lost my staff when I hooked a really nice fish, maybe 20 inches and as I was about to net him in the current I slipped and lost the fish and my staff at the same time:( I also met a really nice guy on the creek who actually let me fish in the spot he was fishing in, thanks again Mark. I managed to hook 1 in that hole, but not as big as the hog you lost a few minutes earlier.
