I suppose the coolest nature encounter I've had while fly fishing Lost Cove Creek in the Wilson Creek drainage here in North Carolina
was watching a very big red tailed hawk swooping in, settling comfortably on a tree branch, and devouring a snake he had caught.
Luckily I had my pocket binoculars with me. It only took Mr. Hawk about 30 minutes to devour that grey colored snake.
Have no idea what particular snake it was but it met a natural fate, I suppose. It was an encounter you would never forget.
Great thread by the way!!

When you can arrange your affairs to go fishing, forget all the signs, homilies, advice and folklore. JUST GO.
