A few weeks ago in late February, troutu student Matthew and I went on an exploratory trout fishing trip on the Horsepasture River in North Carolina. While the Horsepasture River boasts the North Carolina state record rainbow trout, caught in a private section of the river, we fished the portion on public land just above Lake Jocassee near Gorges State Park. We only saw two trout, but Matthew caught one of them -- shown on the video: a nice, fat 17" rainbow. Also, we saw a number of impressive waterfalls.
