"it's all touch and go" jeff It's a pity you didn't meet Jay while you were here last time. As you probably remember, Jay is one of the brothers who owns the shack we stayed in up in the UP. As a matter of fact, Becky and I had dinner with Jay and his girlfriend night before last. You wouldn't ****in' believe the house she's got out in Elm Grove. I mean, this place has got THREE zip codes! And on a teacher's salary? Uh huh. I don't get it. She's got the place up for sale.......it's too big. No ****. This place is too big for the Ringling brothers. The HD TV is kick ass though. And the pool table......in the billiard room......above the garage. Anyway, we did a sort of Thai thing. Jay made some kind of beef (well, venison, actually) and green bean thingy that was just WAY too bland till I mashed up some ginger, garlic, and black pepper in the mortar and pestle (BIG new mortar and pestle from Chu Hai, the local Asian market) and threw it in. Turned out pretty good. I was going to make Tung Tong, but what with the wine flowing and the muse kicking in, I did a soup instead......mushrooms, lemon grass, galangal, ginger, lime leaves, lime juice, coconut milk, lotus seeds, cilantro.......you know. Becky says that Patty just sort of pushed all the meat and veggies out of the way and ate what was left. What was left? I dunno. Anyway......um......... Oh yeah, I taught Jay pretty much everything he knows about fly fishing (well, and cooking and woodworking and brewing and.......well, never mind) but he sort of went nuts and started fishing all over the western UP. Well, he might as well be fishing because when he's not, he and his idiot brothers are taking the barrel stove out of the shack and putting in a propane heater (what the **** is THAT about, asks I ......to no avail) and now they're talking about putting in a ****ing CEILING! Honest to God, I don't make this **** up! Next thing you know they'll be putting in electric lights and taking out the gas refrigerator. Whattaworld! ![]() O.k., so, Jay doesn't know much about fishing, but he IS enthusiastic, and he knows the streams up there better than I do because there's no point in him staying in one place long enough to catch a fish cuz it ain't gonna happen anyway, but we should definitely consult with him about where to go if we were to make another trip up that way......and I think we should......whew! SO, whatever, yeah, there's lots of streams we haven't fished up there yet, and I think we should do it......ALL of them.....what the hell.! May is a good time. September is good too. No bugs to speak of and the fish are grand. However......... Wayne and Bill have been talking about a Troll clave (you know.....the lower peninsula.....BELOW the bridge.....the big mac) on the holy waters sometime this coming season. If I was in the business of giving advice, and you of taking it, I'd suggest we get together on the notion of exploring this possibility. The Au Sable, so I'm told, is big enough to float a Baker AND it holds trout! ![]() Wolfgang |

Let me know when things firm up about any Auntienoggin forays. g.c. O.k., here's the plan. The way I see it, Jeffie flies in to Cleveland. He and Bill hitch a ride or hop a freight or something to Dayton. They hook up with John, hook up the trailer and drive to whereveringod'snamewayneisnow, shanghai his ass and head north. You and Joel and me START north, cross the Big Mac, head south and follow the fumes. We all meet somewhere wet. Does this make me a middle-poster? Looks like it from here. ![]() Wolfgang who, having the last word (well, thus far anyway) would appear to be the bottom poster. p.s no good reason i can see not to stop and wet a line en route. |
