Whitespinnerbait Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) The plan was to seek out and Discover a new Trout lake .............After climbing what seemd like Mount Everest , we spot a small stream ( all streams lead to Lake X )and follow it for a kilometer or so Arrival at the new lake.. Just missed out on a Pileated Wood Pecker in action As we make our way around the shoreline ......A couple of Specks got a little to close to my hooks E A P....Extended Arm Pose Heres were the Disturbing finds unfold....At the opposite end of the lake , theres a marsh in the distance as we near it...............TOMATO PLANTS were once Grow-Op there Man what an Operation '' They '' had going , once upon a time Fertilizer pails 24 of them Watering cans,jugs,bins Absolutely littered the place This marsh was completely covered in Tomato Plants at one time.The only thing remaining was the Black Pots they were Growing-Op in . Seemed like a lot of trouble and High Risk just to grow-op 500 or so Tomato Plants Edited May 9, 2011 by Whitespinnerbait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nipfisher Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Is the market for tomatoes that good? Does the risky nature in which they are grown make them taste better? Great post. Looks like some nice specks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handlebarz Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Nice specs and report. I wonder why they would go through all that trouble for tomatoes heck there are the new hanging tomato plants that come in the green bag just hang them and for get about them until they are ripe sounds alot easier then driving and hiking to grow a garden.
