Obie: Great question; New Year; new opportunity; blank slate so to speak…I found this place on the Gulf of Mexico with clear, wade friendly shallow water (flats like) where Redfish sometimes show up and I can sight-fish. I visited the place post trout fishing season last year, found some access sites and started angling for them (DIY). So I hope to return a few more times and continue to learn all about it (place, environment, species) and hopefully make some more connections. I have some experience in the salt but not a lot, so much is new. Now tying shrimp and crab patterns… also new. So, that’s the new angling adventure… Hope you have one… Happy NYear.

Yeah? That’s a great goal! Work may be sending me to Montana in mid-June of this year; if I can, I’m going to try and knock off and notch a couple glaciers under my belt before they disappear.
At 71 and raising my 11 year old grandson, I plan to maintain my health so I can share with him what I know of the outdoors. He has expressed an interest in getting out, hiking, and camping. I think we will both benefit from this. He will learn something about the world and I will get to see the world through an 11 year old’s eyes again.

That sounds incredible! Hope the redfish spot works out for you, best of luck!
Goal for the year is 60+ species on the fly. After hitting 57 last year, I think it is doable.
Absolutely! Best of luck with your adventures!
Oh! There are still glaciers in Norway that have not melted –

I hope it will work out for you. It sounds interesting!

That’s great to hear, I’m sure it’ll be an exceptionally rewarding experience for both of you!
I plan to fish more than last year and to continue my Missouri spring creek adventures.
