Fish Tales
The weekend before last I went upstate for the fourth and to take a break from Long Island (if I were a doctor, I wouldn't recommend staying more than two weeks at a time here). Between beer brewing sessions, Phill and I took to the waters and tried our luck at fly fishing (a.k.a. Phill fished while I scared the fish away). The first night I won the contest for the biggest fish with a four inch chub (we were in a pond on Phill's property), and the next day Phill won the contest for the biggest fish with a seventeen inch brown trout!!!! Too bad we didn't have the camera. It was definitely the largest fish I had ever seen anybody catch in freshwater, let alone on a fly line!

Phil looks pretty darn happy for a guy who just caught a 3.5" fish.
What kinds of beer did you make?
It is much closer to 4 inches, it is just the angle it is being held;)
We made a dark bock (you may have tried the first run over christmas) and a IPA from hops in phill's yard.
Believe it or not, that is the facial expression Phill always has when fishing... even with out inhaleing beer fumes for hours before hand.
awe poor fishy!
