Default TR: I love the sound of a Hardy in the Morning - a little wordy

"Wolfgang" wrote in message

he and I agreed that we MUST do an expedition to the L.P.
holy waters next year......in addition to the planned U.P. clave. He

voted
for the hex hatch. I'm game......but the dates must be fixed far in
advance.....too many trips have failed to materialize for want of being
fixed and on the calendar.


What started as a clave of folks from the old compuserve fly fishing program
has turned into an annual get together the 4th week of June. In the 10 years
I have been going there we've hit the hex about half the time, two years
(1996 and 2004) there was not crap happening except for a lot of drinking
and BSing while the other three were solid into the brown drakes.

Barring some event which means I 'm no longer amongst the living, I will be
in Grayling from June 22nd through June 26th, with one of the weekdays
tentative for a visit to a certain dead lawyers' shack and pond. I can't
promise you the hex but I think you will like most of the company.

We're in the process of changing the focus of our little event from a fund
raiser back to a fishing trip if you would like.

If you're that dead set on getting the hex tho, I would suggest sometime
right after the 4th of July.

Those dates far enough in advance for you?

Cool, it's early but are going to want to camp or would you want to split
the cost of a cabin if I can get one cheap enough. Even the "cheap" motels
in Grayling go for 60+ a night that time of year.

Either would work for me. Let's wait a bit and see who else is interested.
I know for sure that Bill Claspy wants to go. I can easily twist Joel's
arm.....if he has anything like a hole left in his schedule for the rest of
his life. Guarantee a trip to that lawyer's shack and we can probably tease
one of his colleagues up from down in N.C. (especially if we can convince
him that Michigan bugs are the ones that couldn't hang with the big kids in
WI......and the pasties are nice and fresh).

And, who knows, there may be a few others out there I haven't entirely
alienated.........hey, not EVERYBODY reads ROFF......yet.

Hey! We should call this the "Michigan Asshole Clave Extraordinaire"! We
could break all previous attendance records!

Wolfgang
