I can see the smoke from my living room window. I'm a bit nervous to say the least.

I wanted to take up fly fishing when I was an already an avid spinner fisherman, as a kid. My dad did some fly fishing and had me practicing in the yard. Well I saw the feral cat we had kind of taken in and thought, "there is no way I can get the cat from here" Well I managed to get the cat...

Very nice Scott!! I don't come across perch too often and it is always a thrill when I do. I've caught some in bogs and even in the rivers.

I've seen pine snakes do the fake rattle. I think I recall a black rat snake doing a fake rattle once as well. It is amazing how well they pull this off. I came across a BIG rattler once that gave me a very loud rattle. I think my legs were already backing me up before my brain told them to.

Somebody really dropped the ball if they didn't have a flagman there. It is in everyones best interest. Somebody screwed up.

A great document from a land management officer with the NJDEP in 2009. It appears there are solutions available to balance public saftey and ecological preservation of fire dependant forest. Having read the article, I can attest that I have seen some of these proceedures north of speedwell...

I always do leather gloves and sun glasses. A machete would be too time consuming. you just push your way through or crawl under. It was a great hike! Jeff

Yes, correct. There are a lot of nice spots north of Hampton furnace.

This is a quiet spot on the upper Batsto where kaykers and canoeists never go. http://pix.kg/p/808130145215%3A665047803/sct Jeff

Could be the same spot, Greg. I believe that the cabin/house was put there for the purpose of recreation which has me wondering if there are some 60th generation monster pickerel in there. I'm going to fish it real good and see what happens. As usual, I'll be releasing so they will still be...

Yeah, I took quite a bit of video and pics with Jack for the reasons you mentioned.

Big fat yes on that, Chris

I did and I was surprised to find no markings
