Warm temperatures and plentiful rain the forecast suggest that North Georgia trout should be chomping this week, and I've heard recent reports of a fair number of fish looking up and sipping dry flies. However, I need to be content to enjoy reading the reports and leave the fish-catching to someone else because my back has been out of whack.
The back trouble does seem to be diminishing, but I don't want to do anything that might cause the mending to "backtrack" because by this time next week, I'll be at Crocodile Bay Resort in Costa Rica. The trip includes a day of offshore fishing, possibly for sailfish or marlin; a day of inshore fishing, possibly for brutally strong roosterfish; and a day of eco-touring, which will include a ropes course through the jungle. A good back is pretty important for all three days (and for two full days of travel).
One benefit for the back, travel-wise, is that the temperature is always between 70 and 90 degrees where I will be, so I can get by with a small, light duffel. Next week's blog should be full of cool images -- and hopefully some videos -- from Costa Rica, so be sure to check in regularly.
