Fishing - Camping plans

For me half the fun of a fishing trip is getting "stuff"ready.

a week from today I-m leaving for a few days camping beside, and dipping
flies into a nice N.C. mountain stream.
thought I would be sure I could still put up my small tent while my squaw
was around to show me methods involved..
she pointed out that I did not have the small bag containing tent
poles. ---guess I left them along side Rock Creek Montana 5 years ago. If
anyone sees them please let me know.
Some parts of fun are not fun

too bad you can't wait a few weeks joe. mark and i are planning our
little camp out for May 15-18 somewhere around the wilson-thunderhole
areas. mark usually has everything us pixilated geezers need for a
camping adventure. sounds like you need a new tent...i just bought a
small 2-man kelty grand mesa 2 that i plan on using for my nc and
montana trips this year...was $100 at great outdoor provision co. in
greenville. it had some of them pole thingees. they seem kinda critical
to getting the tent to actually "pitch" if i recall. g

have a good trip and let us know about the fishing.
