Days Ahead

With the morning low holding above freezing and a forecast for 40s today and 50s tomorrow, I find myself pretending we've turned a corner. I know better; more cold is most likely just around the bend. Time does pass quickly, though, so I'm looking ahead toward casting for brown trout on Arkansas' White River in less than two months and catching giant Lake Erie smallmouths a couple months later. Neither destination will necessarily be warm. In fact, it might be like revisiting winter in Georgia. Both rank among my favorite places to travel, though, and I look forward to sharing great fishing and fine food with friends in the outdoors industry.
