I hardly knew anyone who fished for trout back then. The town actually revolved around growing tobacco as a cash crop. The tobacco fields have been replaced with suburbs and vineyards. It's much nicer to visit now than back then!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021357899307778970.post-70882139106092740792014-04-13T14:08:47.688-07:002014-04-13T14:08:47.688-07:00Thanks, Nate, for sharing your trip on the Driftle...Thanks, Nate, for sharing your trip on the Driftless. I have read several posts about this area and would love someday to try it out. Alas, I live way too far away. So will live on with your posts and that of others about the Driftless. Also, appreciate the reminder about debarbing your hooks!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15787242134608887555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8021357899307778970.post-31380531380591411992014-04-13T14:03:28.857-07:002014-04-13T14:03:28.857-07:00excellent report, nice to bump into you

That's cool to see that the town of Viroqua embraces it.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08288928187563951613noreply@blogger.com
