In closing, we note the effort to resolve some age-old conflicts here. It may be time to start one in good fun, too. There is a TU Chapter Web page photo spread ironically showing a youngster holding a decent largemouth bass for which the caption reads “green trout.” Folks, I like bass a lot, too, but they’re nowhere near as pretty as a trout is.

It’s for such spellbinding trout reasons that we excitedly await the annual trout saga. Prime time for trout is right now, so you don’t have to wait any longer. For casting their spell on us, we just keep on casting right back at ‘em, West Virginia style.
