Trip to Cabelas

Hey Guys,

On April 9th 2011 we are making our annual trip to Cabelas for supplies for the upcoming fishing trip.

If you would care to join us we are meeting at the restaurant called the Three C's, (which is about two miles north of Cabelas on route 61 on the left hand side.) at 10:00 a.m.

After the shopping trip and if you have time, I invite everyone back to my house for a cookout. We can review the purchases and have a few beers. It should be a fun time, and I am looking forward to it.

Stop looking call in the APB


I know many of you may be wondering where on earth I was. Well as it were I decided to go fishing for steelhead in Pulaski over Superbowl weekend, and I just thawed out a couple days ago. Actually, it took 3 weeks to get feeling back in my toes (no joke). So I am back blood flowing and all, and I am super psyched for our upcoming trip. I can hear the sweet winds of Temagami calling to me over the clamour and noise of this city. I tell you I can really use the get-a-way.

Anyway, I wanted to tell you guys about my recent fishing trip since I seem to be the only one fishing. First off as I said it was bitterly cold, a fact that became more obvious the deeper into the river I waded. I tell you when you stand for 8 hous up to your chest in 32F water with nothing between you and it but a thin peace of gortex you really know you're alive. Possibly the only thing worse than the cold is the fact that you can accomplish maybe 4 casts before breaking your 6lb test line on one of the 600 million things to get snagged on in the river. Given that a cast lasts about 30 seconds it means a lot of retying, and since a fly cost about $2 it means a lot of lost money. Lets just say its frustrating, cold, and very hard core. If you're lucky to get a bite and know that you got a bite you then have about 1millisecond to set the hook before he spits your fly. Then if by some vast force from above you miraculously hook into one you have to land him with a tiny hook and again 6lb test.

I found myself wondering why anyone would be crazy enough to actually pursuit this endeavour. However, once I had one on the line and was running down river with the fish in the lead like a bat-out-of-hell, ice cold water bathing me with every stride I had my answer. Although, its not for the novice and you definitely have to love fishing in the end there is nothing like fighting one of the worlds strongest fish with ultralight tackle in the middle of winter. So I guess I am getting a bit long winded. Its been nice talking to you guys and as they say a picture's worth 1000 words or more like 32" and 16lbs.

God Bless and May your hands forever smell like fish,
-Vince

New Hotel for the way up!





Hi Everyone,
Jody found a different place for us to stay on the way up. It is a Travel Lodge located in Penn brook, which is just a little before where we were staying before. Check it out, it looks pretty good, they have a restaurant right on the premise, so we don't have to run around.

Part of the reason we got a good rate was that we had to pre-pay, so keep that in mind. It also looks like it has a better place for the boats.

Thanks
