I'm taking my neighbor up the St. Joe of North Idaho this weekend. I did so well last year at this time, I can hardly wait to try it again. My neighbor (Sean) has fished rivers before, but it's been a long time since he's held a fly rod in his hands. We got our licenses today at Cabela's, and tomorrow I'll pick up lunch at Fred Meyer. We'll be having Johnsonville Brats on a bun with Sauer Kraut and dejon mustard. Some Sun Chips and sodas. The digital camera will be there also, and if everything goes the way I expect, there will be pics to peruse. The autumn foliage should be as colorful as ever, and if really lucky, the fish should be very hungry. We'll start with Calf Wing Royal Coachmen, then Renegades, then BWO's and PMD's. I'm leaving the dynamite at home this trip.
I wish you could all be there. I think this one's going to be fun. I'll let you know.
