Hey gang I was thinking of planning this neat trip....I know these
streams quite well!

Mr. Hatch:

First off, there have been several neat trips by frequent and
infrequent posters to the group involving the UP.

Second, we are planning a little get together in the UP come
Septemeber, I need someone to help flush grouse as my dog is rather
useless for this task, interested?

Thirdly, while the streams you mentioned are no secret and in the
internet age it is tough to keep such, Maybe stick with just the names
and general area relative to surrounding towns. At the rate you're
going, you'll be posting gps coordinates to the third bend pool behind
the sweeper on the fourth rock where the non Canadian brook trout of a
life time resides. And this would be in bad manners.

Fouthly, son you may be the number one guy in your class on a fast
track for fame and fortune, but when you get out in the world as you do
on this board you're gonna meet a lot of people in their own way and
field are going to make you look like you spent your first 20 years
getting raised by wolved then dumped into "egotistical engineers r us
convention" where you become the village idiot.

Lastly if you make your trip and see some fat guy with a white suv
making some skinny short guy drool while the fat guy makes him beg for
a cane rod, with some tall bearded guy bitching about olives and
mosquitoes while a shorter bearded guy making like "who gives a f$%^
about olives" and cane....that would be us, stop and say hello.

If you're up for the Second item, do you retrieve too?
