I call it
a rollercoaster for the rise and fall on the river gauges. We haven't had a
level flow in almost two months. There is something disheartening about getting
super excited about being on the water 2 weeks straight, getting one day in and
then it rained again. I have to admit, I may have lost my mind a few times in
there. The house almost floated away, had to wear waders to check the mail,
tied a lot of flies, drank a few beers, maybe some Jack, but that’s all over
now (I hope). We are back in action.
This high and un fishable summer could have been
a blessing in disguise. There are times in life when you forget what you
have, when you don't realize how much you truly love something, or how much you
actually love what you do, until it is taken from you. Not being able to guide
for almost 6 weeks, made me realize how much I do love it, it re sparked the
flame I felt I was losing.
But enough
about the sad mind loosing summer we just had, lets enjoy what we have left and
welcome fall with open arms.
