Went on a guided trip on Saturday with my bro-in-law, courtesty of Eastern Trophies: http://www.easterntrophies.com/
William was our guide and we met up at 8am after a 2+ hour drive. A very cool piece of water with opportunities to catch a number of different species. We were targeting trout and smallies and were successful with both. We started the day with a quick hookup on a small brook trout that got off right at the boat. Not to be dismayed, our morning was full of solid rainbows and plenty (annoyingly) of Chub/Fall Fish.
I quickly learned not to grip the trout so tightly.

We didn't get any lunkers, but had a couple of really good fish get off on the hook set. We primarily fished crawfish flies.
The morning bite was on, the afternoon bite got chased away by isolated thunderstorms. In fact, we had to pull over as a rumbler pushed through and the local town's tornado sirens went off!
All safe, a great trip, and definitely will do it again.

When I mentioned your name, he said the same thing. Good guy and quality flies.
BTW - we fished 6wts and really needed patience to throw those big bugs.
