    Default Today is the day...(not FF)

    Billie Joe McAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bidge.

    It was the third of June another sleepy, dusty delta day...
    I'm either going to, coming from or thinking about fishing. Jim

    Jimsnarocks,
    Thanks for bringing back a few memories. I think I knew all the words once upon a time.

    LOTS of good memories, I saw Bobbie Gentry while a student at MS State; canoed down the Tallahatchie from Sardis Lake with Boy Scouts when I was a kid. I have crossed it at various places countless times in north Mississippi. Crappie fishing can be very good in the lake below the headwaters below Sardis Dam. I was thinking recently of trying a nymph on a fly rod when the spillway was open, something that has probably never need done.

    Sometimes what happens on Choctaw Ridge ends up in the Tallahatchie River.

    The Sardis Lake Dam is rather impressive. It is nearly 3 miles long and a lot taller than it looks from the highway.

    Are the Yalobusha and Pearl Rivers workable with a fly rod?
