This spring has been so bad for me. With my Sister spending 2 months in the ICU then passing 3 weeks ago I just have not been my normal self where I have been able to get out and fly fish like I normally do at all. Normally I would have had at least 10-12 days on the water by now in a regular year. Finally have something to look forward to now. Sunday I am heading on a fishing trip with my fishing buddy to my home away from home (Au Sable river) and he's gonna fish with me for 3 days. Then he leaves on Wednesday morning and I am moving from a double room to a single room at the motel which is only 200ft from the river. The past few weeks I had been setting aside money from rod sales to afford this trip. I plan to stay at least a week, maybe 10 days, who knows. We'll see how long the money holds out . I love fishing with my buddy, but I'm really looking forward to being alone for 7-10 days or more. There's just something very healing for my soul about spending an extended trip alone on the river.
Place we stay at is really nicely situated as well. Country motel in a small town, 200' from the river, grocery store, restaurant, fly shop, and family dollar all within a 2 minutes walking distance from it. I'll have my laptop with me so I should be able to post daily updates with pics here under this thread. Looking forward to healing my soul alone on the river fly rod in hand.
