I went with a friend one afternoon to learn how to fly fish...On the trip up my attention was caught by Bald River Falls on the Tellico River. Of course, I didn't want to do just take in the beauty of the falls, but to experience it. So we walked around to the other side of the falls and then climbed up the side of it- straight up through the rainforest. And of course I wanted to walk out on the fall. When we were up there we discovered there was another fall to the right of it. Fly fishing...only a few words to describe this experience. I was getting the hang of climbing over rocks and fallen trees and walking through the flowing river- keeping my balance while holding my pole. Learning to cast my line takes patience. Every time I have got my line caught in the trees, my friend caught a fish. It was a fun day. I was sore the next day- who would of thought?!
