Dry Spell

A quiet month here.  I have spent a lot of time behind the keyboard, mostly on very un-FTR material.  I have written a couple of things about hunting I might put up later if I can put them more blog-friendly form.

 I've only fished once since my last trip.  That was on a daytrip to Kalamazoo to visit my dad.  Ended an outing on Gull lake with three nice rock bass, also a mid-teens largemouth my father released.  Not much more than I would have expected given the heat, though when we we pulling out, someone else loading their boat said they'd caught about thirty rockies. 

So it goes.

I've intended to hit the Huron, but between work and domestic obligations I haven't.  And here  we're moving into some of the biggest events of the Huron's season, the hex and ephoron hatches. 

Fortunately, my wife and I are headed north this weekend and I should be able to get back into the trout groove.  Saturday we're going to Grayling to watch the start of the canoe marathon, then on to a cabin in the western U.P.  where we'll spend a week on Sunday.  Not primarily a fishing trip, but I should be able to get out a little every day.  Stories and, yes, pics on return.
