so...um, have you set the the date for the next u.p. carnivale?
post-skeeter and black-fly season i hope, if i may be so bold as to make
a request. my blood isn't pulsing with the vigor that allows for the
interruption or loss occasioned by wrestling with those critters during
their period of strength.

past weekend, i went out in pursuit of speckled trout (salt water
variety)...caught a solitary too-small flounder, but in the effort i saw
pelicans sky-diving for fish and observed a gaggle/pride/herd, or lotsa,
porpoise chasing bait fish into the shore of a salt marsh. amazing.
sometimes the lookin is every bit as much fun a part of fishing as the
catching.

i'm looking forward to the u.p. and gettin cross with bruce
again...that's a fun part of fishin too. might even like to visit that
oxymoron, uh, octagon, un, onemoregone...well, i know there's a stream
nearabouts with a funny name we can abuse...

Finally some discussion of fly fishing! This is a fly fishing NG you
know. Who starts these political self abuse orgies anyway?

Let me know when things firm up about any Auntienoggin forays.

g.c.

Does this make me a middle-poster?
