Re: Cattaraugus Creek NY
We've been getting into steelhead elsewhere besides the Catt lately, some places a bit closer to home. It's fishable right now though I don't know what fish numbers are like. Conditions are good...

Re: How did you choose your screen name?
I went to the University of Florida and grew up in Florida, but have since moved away. When I lived in Kentucky, in the land of Wildcats fans, it was an applicable forum nickname and just stuck.

Re: Bourbon
I'll throw in my vote for Rare Breed as well, definitely a fan. However, in the year I lived in Louisville it certainly wasn't the only bourbon I tasted! And Shotgun, a whisky/whiskey thread wouldn't...

Re: Cattaraugus Creek NY
Swinging big nasty flies will do you well this time of year, particularly in the higher water. The Catt will certainly not be gin clear, but even in some murk white is a regular killer on the Creek....
