How I'm Spending My Vacation
I'm off this week and I've decided to stay close to home and fish hard.
This morning I went to a favorite spot I fish once or twice a year.
Today was special because I finally broke out a rod I got for X-MAS (Thanks Santa), and a reel my parents got me complete with extra spool.
The Rod is a Sage XP 4 piece 6 wt., and the Reel an Orvis Battenkill Mid Arbor.
I had planned to save it for Steelhead fishing, but it needed to be done...
No fish landed today. I must admit to mastering the long release today.
The new combo is sweeter than Honey and I can't wait till "Early Dawn" to quote Stonewall Jackson.
Anyhow I took a couple pics. I plan on adding to this all week. Tune in and see if I can actually catch a fish.
P.S.- The wife wants to fish a day too. I hope to do well that day...
